Among the 20 most recent UK software-development rounds shown, Aztec’s $100M on 2022-12-15 is the clear outlier: every other disclosed amount sits below $10M, with Summize at $6M (2022-11-24) and Glyphic AI at $5M (2023-06-14) forming the next highest tier. Geographically, London is heavily concentrated, appearing across the majority of entries (e.g., Tracelight on 2025-08-07 at $4M; Pathway on 2023-07-10 at $900K; Aztec on 2022-12-15 at $100M), while the non-London set is smaller and more dispersed (Manchester, Doncaster, Borehamwood).
Stage and disclosure also cluster. Pre-Seed is the most frequent named stage (including Pelly $430K in 2025-01-15; Workflow $3M in 2024-11-14; Linkable $320K in 2024-01-01; and several 2023 rounds such as Pathway $900K and Trigger.dev $500K), while 7 of 20 rows are either “undisclosed” or “Series Unknown” (e.g., Mayday $undisclosed on 2023-10-13 and StrikeX undisclosed on 2023-06-09). Temporally, the entries span 2022-11-09 (Gravel AI undisclosed) through 2025-08-07 (Tracelight $4M), with the most recent quarter dominated by small-to-mid ticket amounts ($430K to $4M).

Frequently asked
What’s the largest disclosed round in this UK software-development set, and how sharply does it stand above the rest?
Aztec’s $100M (Series B) on 2022-12-15 dwarfs the field: the next-largest disclosed amounts are in the single digits, with Summize at $6M (2022-11-24) and Glyphic AI at $5M (2023-06-14).
Are there clear geographic concentrations, or is funding evenly distributed across UK cities?
London dominates the list, including Tracelight (London) at $4M on 2025-08-07 and Aztec (London) at $100M on 2022-12-15. Non-London cities show up as single entries such as Summize in Manchester ($6M, 2022-11-24) and The Build Chain in Doncaster ($2M, 2024-06-05).
How does the list cluster by time—does it concentrate around a specific window or spread continuously?
The rounds span from Gravel AI (2022-11-09, undisclosed) through Tracelight (2025-08-07, $4M). There’s a clear later-period tilt toward smaller disclosed tickets: between 2024-01-01 and 2025-08-07, disclosed amounts range from $100K (Fraiya, 2024-08-01) up to $4M (Tracelight, 2025-08-07), with no additional multi–tens-of-millions disclosed.
What stage mix dominates, and which other categories recur besides the named stages?
Pre-Seed is the most frequently labeled stage across the rows (e.g., Pelly Pre-Seed $430K on 2025-01-15; Workflow Pre-Seed $3M on 2024-11-14; Pathway Pre-Seed $900K on 2023-07-10; Linkable Pre-Seed $320K on 2024-01-01). In parallel, 7 of 20 rows are either “undisclosed” or “Series Unknown” (e.g., Mayday $undisclosed on 2023-10-13; Seed Venture undisclosed on 2023-07-03; Workscope undisclosed on 2023-06-21).
Which entries look like “ticket size outliers” on the low end (excluding undisclosed amounts)?
Among disclosed amounts only, the smallest visible figure is Fraiya’s $100K (Pre-Seed, 2024-08-01). That $100K low point sits far below the next-low tier where other disclosed entries are $170K (Carbon Re, 2023-08-15) and $320K (Linkable, 2024-01-01).
