Software funding rounds in Australia span from 2021-02-01 (Effi, Seed, $900K) to 2025-10-10 (Octopus Deploy, Venture - Series Unknown, $30M), with the most recent entry standing out as the only disclosed round above $10M in the displayed set. That $30M round materially dwarfs the rest of the disclosed amounts, which largely cluster at sub-$1M (for example, Evenergi’s $30K on 2022-11-10 and Support Fusion’s $160K on 2025-04-09). A second concentration shows up in September 2024: multiple disclosed rounds appear around 2024-09-04 through 2024-09-16, including Business Kitz ($3M on 2024-09-04) and the cluster of several undisclosed outcomes during 2024-09-09.
Geographically, New South Wales dominates by presence: Sydney, North Sydney/Surry Hills (e.g., iluminr on 2022-10-12 for $3M; and Eclipse AI on 2023-01-23 with undisclosed), and broader NSW entries recur more often than other states. Stage labeling is also uneven: 6 of 20 rows are marked “undisclosed” and 6 of 20 are “Series Unknown” (with Venture - Series Unknown appearing twice and Seed/Pre-Seed also recurring), which makes disclosed-size comparisons especially sensitive to a small number of large rounds like Octopus Deploy ($30M, 2025-10-10) and Amaka ($5M, 2021-12-03).

Frequently asked
What stands out as the largest disclosed round, and how far above the rest is it?
Octopus Deploy’s Venture - Series Unknown round of $30M on 2025-10-10 is the only disclosed amount above $10M in these 20 rows. The next-largest disclosed figures include Amaka at $5M (2021-12-03) and Business Kitz at $3M (2024-09-04), while several others are far lower such as Evenergi’s $30K (2022-11-10) and Xylo Systems’ $100K (2021-12-01).
Do rounds cluster in a specific recent time window among the most recent entries shown?
Yes. Around mid-to-late September 2024, multiple entries fall within a short span including Business Kitz ($3M on 2024-09-04) and several other 2024-09 dates in the list (for example Shutterspeed on 2024-09-09, Canopy on 2024-09-09, and Asseti on 2024-09-16, each with undisclosed amounts). The broader displayed window runs from 2021-02-01 to 2025-10-10.
Which location pattern is most prominent across the 20 rows?
New South Wales appears more frequently than other states, with many entries centered on Sydney and nearby localities such as Surry Hills (Asseti, 2024-09-16, undisclosed) and North Sydney (Synergy, 2024-11-14, undisclosed). Queensland and Victoria also appear (e.g., Octopus Deploy in Brisbane and Support Fusion in Melbourne), but NSW has the densest concentration in the displayed set.
How concentrated are undisclosed or “Series Unknown” rounds, and what does that imply for comparing deal sizes?
Disclosed amounts are less consistent because 6 of 20 rows are “undisclosed” and another 6 of 20 are “Series Unknown.” As a result, size comparisons are disproportionately driven by the disclosed outliers—such as Octopus Deploy at $30M (2025-10-10) and Remote Social at $700K (2021-09-01)—rather than the majority of entries where the amount is hidden.
Are there any notably small disclosed rounds that act as low-end outliers?
Evenergi’s $30K on 2022-11-10 is the smallest disclosed amount in the list, substantially lower than the next visible disclosed levels like $100K for Xylo Systems (2021-12-01) and $140K for Partnar.io (2023-02-22). This creates a wide disclosed-size spread between low five-figure rounds and the highest $30M deal.
