The largest disclosed pre-seed round in this Canada list is Modem’s $4M (2026-02-10), which sits well above the rest: the next-largest disclosed amounts are three separate $3M rounds (Simuhealth $3M on 2025-12-08 and Lake $3M on 2025-09-17), followed by a large cluster of $2M rounds (Loon, Anchorbase, Jetty, Paraito, and Voltra). Geographically, Toronto dominates repeatedly (20 appearances), with Vancouver (8) and Montréal (5) next, suggesting a heavy concentration in a small set of metros rather than a uniform national spread.
Timing also shows clustering toward the top of the window: 2026 entries run from the most recent Solving.AI pre-seed on 2026-07-14 back through 2026-07-06 and 2026-06-18, while the oldest shown round dates to 2024-12-15 (askelle, undisclosed). Sector-wise, artificial intelligence appears across multiple entries (e.g., Solving.AI $780K on 2026-07-14; Polysights $2M on 2026-06-05; Nucleus $1M on 2025-03-24), reinforcing an AI-forward pattern within this stage.

Is there a sector pattern that repeats across multiple entries (rather than one-off verticals)?
