Across the 10 most recent financial-services funding entries in Menlo Park, the disclosed amounts are skewed by a single large outlier: Oportun’s $150M post-IPO debt round (2022-09-15). That dwarfs the next-largest disclosed figure in the set, Astra’s $30M debt financing (2022-10-13) and InvestorFlow’s $30M Series A (2022-04-07), while several other disclosed rounds cluster far lower, including Cymbal at $19M (2023-07-19) and the sub-$10M group such as Joshu’s $4M seed (2021-01-26).

Timing also concentrates: 4 of the 10 rounds have 2022 as the year (InvestorFlow 2022-04-07 at $30M; Oportun 2022-09-15 at $150M; Astra 2022-10-13 at $30M). Stage classifications show a mixed pattern as well: “Series Unknown” appears in 2 rows (Accel-KKR on 2025-06-18 as undisclosed, and Allocate on 2023-09-21 at $10M), while undisclosed amounts appear in 2 rows (Accel-KKR and IoTeX on 2021-11-04). The visible window runs from 2020-11-12 (TreasuryCurve, $200K) to 2025-06-18 (Accel-KKR).

Frequently asked

What stands out on deal size, and how does the largest disclosed round compare to the rest in this Menlo Park financial-services set?

Oportun’s $150M post-IPO debt round (2022-09-15) is the only disclosed amount well above the others, with the next-largest disclosed figures at $30M for both Astra (2022-10-13) and InvestorFlow (2022-04-07). Multiple other disclosed rounds fall substantially lower, including Cymbal at $19M (2023-07-19) and Firstcard at $5M (2023-09-06).

Are the rounds clustered in a specific time window within the 10-row view?

Yes—2022 contains 3 of the disclosed, dated rounds shown: InvestorFlow (2022-04-07, $30M), Oportun (2022-09-15, $150M), and Astra (2022-10-13, $30M). That concentration is larger than the 2023 cluster, which includes Cymbal (2023-07-19, $19M), Firstcard (2023-09-06, $5M), and Allocate (2023-09-21, $10M).

How often do funding amounts remain undisclosed or labeled as “Series Unknown,” and does that affect outlier detection?

Two entries are explicitly undisclosed (Accel-KKR on 2025-06-18 and IoTeX on 2021-11-04), and two entries are labeled “Series Unknown” (Accel-KKR and Allocate on 2023-09-21 with $10M). The biggest disclosed amount still clearly comes from Oportun’s $150M (2022-09-15), so the disclosed outlier pattern isn’t driven by undisclosed rows.

What stage mix dominates among the disclosed financings in this list?

Debt-related classifications appear repeatedly: Astra (Debt Financing, $30M on 2022-10-13) and Oportun (Post-IPO Debt, $150M on 2022-09-15). The remaining disclosed stages shown include equity-like labels such as Seed (Firstcard at $5M on 2023-09-06; Joshu at $4M on 2021-01-26) and Series A (InvestorFlow at $30M on 2022-04-07), plus one very small disclosed entry at $200K (TreasuryCurve on 2020-11-12).

Which entries look like the smallest and largest disclosed rounds worth prioritizing for outreach analysis?

The smallest disclosed amount is TreasuryCurve’s $200K (2020-11-12). The largest disclosed round is Oportun’s $150M (2022-09-15), with the next tier clustered around $30M (Astra on 2022-10-13 and InvestorFlow on 2022-04-07), suggesting a sharp split between a small set of large financings and a longer tail of lower disclosed rounds.
