Across these 6 most recent research-services rounds, one disclosed deal stands out: New Harvest’s $50K (2025-05-21) is the only disclosed amount in a materially different magnitude versus the $6M–$12M range, making it an outlier on disclosed size. By contrast, Chara Technologies ($6M on 2025-10-15) and EdgeRunner AI ($12M on 2025-05-01) cluster in the mid–single to low–double-digit millions, while three of the six entries list amounts as undisclosed (Linus Pauling Institute, SiteBridge Research, Metalchemy).
The timing is spread from 2023-10-06 (Metalchemy) to 2025-10-15 (Chara Technologies) with most rounds concentrated in 2025: 3 of 6 entries are dated 2025 (EdgeRunner AI on 2025-05-01, New Harvest on 2025-05-21, Chara Technologies on 2025-10-15). Geographically, the list is not concentrated in a single city: it spans Bengaluru, New York, San Francisco, Corvallis, Chapel Hill, and London, with the United States appearing 3 times (New Harvest, EdgeRunner AI, Linus Pauling Institute) and the remaining entries split between India, the UK, and Oregon.
