Across the 9 most recent San Luis Obispo–based rounds shown, the largest disclosed amount is Novocuff’s $26M (Series A) on 2024-07-17, which sits notably above the rest of the disclosed figures (the next-highest is Postal.io at $22M on 2021-09-14). Disclosed amounts are otherwise clustered around the low-to-mid single-digit million range, with several $2M–$3M rounds (NEXT Life Sciences $2M on 2023-06-02; The Pad Climbing $3M on 2024-12-18; StudentRoomStay $3M on 2022-06-08; Votive Health $3M on 2021-04-28), while only King Energy shows a higher $10M seed on 2024-10-16.

The rounds span 2020-02-17 (Wildnote, $1M) through 2024-12-18 (The Pad Climbing, $3M), with 3 entries in 2023 (Flume 2023-06-07, NEXT Life Sciences 2023-06-02, and Postal.io 2021; plus the 2023 gap is visible in the sequence around June) and a tight concentration in mid-2024: three rounds between 2024-07-17 and 2024-10-16 (Novocuff $26M on 2024-07-17; King Energy $10M on 2024-10-16; The Pad Climbing $3M on 2024-12-18). Sector-wise, Health Care/Biotech appears repeatedly (Novocuff, Votive Health, and NEXT Life Sciences), while “Series Unknown” appears 2 times (The Pad Climbing 2024-12-18, Flume 2023-06-07) and one row is undisclosed (Flume).

Frequently asked

What’s the largest disclosed round in this San Luis Obispo list, and how much larger is it than the rest?

Novocuff’s $26M (Series A) on 2024-07-17 is the largest disclosed amount in the 9-row view; it is only slightly above Postal.io’s $22M (Series B) on 2021-09-14, and well above the $10M seed at King Energy (2024-10-16) and the $2M–$3M cluster (e.g., NEXT Life Sciences $2M on 2023-06-02 and multiple $3M rounds).

Are there date clusters among the most recent rounds shown?

Yes. Mid- to late-2024 includes three disclosed rounds between 2024-07-17 and 2024-10-16 (Novocuff $26M on 2024-07-17; King Energy $10M on 2024-10-16), followed by The Pad Climbing at $3M on 2024-12-18, creating a late-year concentration compared with the earlier entries back to 2020-02-17.

Which sectors are over-represented in these 9 entries?

Health Care/Biotechnology-related companies appear multiple times: Novocuff (Health Care, 2024-07-17, $26M), NEXT Life Sciences (Biotechnology, 2023-06-02, $2M), and Votive Health (Health Care, 2021-04-28, $3M). Other sectors (e.g., Energy at King Energy; Advertising at Postal.io; Consumer Electronics at Flume) appear fewer times.

How heavy is “Series Unknown” or undisclosed disclosure in this list?

Two rounds are labeled “Series Unknown” (The Pad Climbing on 2024-12-18 and Flume on 2023-06-07), and Flume’s amount is specifically shown as undisclosed. That means one of the two “Series Unknown” entries is also an undisclosed amount case.

Which entries look like outliers in either amount or stage?

The biggest outlier by disclosed size is Novocuff’s $26M on 2024-07-17, with the next-largest disclosed being Postal.io at $22M; most other disclosed amounts are $1M–$10M (e.g., Wildnote $1M on 2020-02-17 and King Energy $10M on 2024-10-16). Stage also clusters around seed and later rounds, but King Energy stands out with a seed at $10M on 2024-10-16 while several other seed/Series B rounds are in the $2M–$3M or $22M ranges.

What are the temporal edges—oldest and most recent rounds—and what amounts do they carry?

The oldest row shown is Wildnote on 2020-02-17 with a disclosed $1M, while the most recent is The Pad Climbing on 2024-12-18 with a disclosed $3M. Between those edges, the list includes a high mid-2024 peak (Novocuff $26M on 2024-07-17) and a later peak in disclosed size at Postal.io ($22M on 2021-09-14).
