Across the 14 Chicago “Other” listings shown, the largest disclosed round is Logik.io’s $25M (Series B) on 2024-10-08, which sits well above the rest of the disclosed amounts; the next-largest disclosed round is Workbox Company’s $18M (Series A) on 2024-06-03, and the only other high marks are Feeding America’s $7M (2024-11-18) and Better Government Association’s $10M (2021-11-22). The most recent entry is Mode Mobile on 2025-05-15 ($1M), while the oldest dated row is Thoughtful Automation on 2021-09-22 ($5M), spanning roughly three years.
The timing clusters sharply in 2024: five of the 14 rounds (2024-06-03 through 2024-11-18) account for the bulk of the larger disclosed figures, including Logik.io ($25M), Workbox Company ($18M), and Positive Space Media ($4M). Stage classification is also mixed: eight of 14 entries are labeled “Series Unknown,” while two additional entries use “Undisclosed,” limiting clean stage comparisons even as the remaining labeled rounds include Seed (Listener Brands $250K; Thoughtful Automation $5M) and Grant (New Growth Innovation Network $6M; Better Government Association $10M).

Frequently asked
What stands out on round size for Chicago “Other” deals, and is there a clear outlier?
Logik.io’s $25M on 2024-10-08 is the only disclosed round in this slice above $18M (Workbox Company’s $18M on 2024-06-03). The next tier drops to Feeding America at $7M (2024-11-18) and Positive Space Media at $4M (2024-09-02), while SynthBits is far smaller at $50K (2024-08-01).
Do the most recent rounds cluster in time, or are they evenly spread across the three-year window?
They cluster in 2024: five entries fall between 2024-06-03 (Workbox Company $18M) and 2024-11-18 (Feeding America $7M). The 2021–2023 rows are more sparsely represented, including Thoughtful Automation $5M (2021-09-22), Better Government Association $10M (2021-11-22), and New Growth Innovation Network $6M (2022-10-20).
How heavily do “Series Unknown” and “Undisclosed” labels limit stage-level analysis in this set?
Eight of the 14 entries are marked “Series Unknown” (e.g., Mode Mobile 2025-05-15 at $1M and Feeding America 2024-11-18 at $7M). Two more are “Undisclosed” (PAWS Chicago on 2023-06-15 and Zeno Group on 2022-10-04), leaving fewer rows with explicit stages like Seed (Listener Brands 2022-11-23 at $250K; Thoughtful Automation 2021-09-22 at $5M) and Grant (Block Club Chicago $2M on 2022-10-10).
Which labeled stages appear, and how do their disclosed amounts compare?
Seed shows up twice with a wide spread: Listener Brands at $250K (2022-11-23) versus Thoughtful Automation at $5M (2021-09-22). Grants also appear twice at $2M (Block Club Chicago, 2022-10-10) and $6M (New Growth Innovation Network, 2022-10-20), while labeled Series B/Series A entries include Logik.io $25M (2024-10-08) and Workbox Company $18M (2024-06-03).
Are there any notable size extremes on the low end within disclosed rounds?
Among disclosed amounts, SynthBits’ $50K on 2024-08-01 is the smallest figure in the table, far below the next-smallest disclosed amounts like Listener Brands at $250K (2022-11-23) and Titan at $100K (2021-12-01). Several other entries sit in the single-digit millions range, such as Positive Space Media $4M (2024-09-02) and Thoughtful Automation $5M (2021-09-22).
