Among the 44 Germany-based software rounds shown, Forto’s Series D on 2022-03-07 is the clear size outlier at $250M; the next-largest disclosed round is Sport Alliance at $109M (2023-11-27), and the concentration below those levels is much tighter (most disclosed rounds sit between $2M and $45M, with only a few above $20M such as n8n.io’s $180M on 2025-10-08 and Lanes & Planes’ $35M on 2023-10-16). Stage disclosure is also uneven: 5 entries are “undisclosed” on amount (e.g., Aparkado 2025-01-09; Persival 2024-12-12), and 6 are “Series Unknown” (including Aparkado 2025-01-09 and Mediaire 2024-11-13), which limits direct comparability across rounds.
Temporal and geographic clustering shows up in two places. Recent funding is skewed toward Berlin: multiple disclosed rounds occur there across 2024–2025 (e.g., Climatiq $12M on 2025-06-25, Mercanis $20M on 2025-06-18, Restate $7M on 2024-06-10, and Mediaire’s $13M on 2024-11-13). Date-wise, the newest entries land in Q4 2025 to mid-2025 (n8n.io on 2025-10-08 down through 2025-06-17 for One Ware), while the oldest shown rounds date back to mid-2020 (Zenloop on 2020-06-15 and Layer on 2020-07-15).

Frequently asked
What’s the largest disclosed round in this Germany software list, and how different is it from the rest of the disclosed amounts?
Forto’s $250M Series D (2022-03-07) is the largest disclosed amount in the table and materially exceeds the next-largest disclosed round: Sport Alliance’s $109M (2023-11-27). Several other large disclosed rounds cluster well below that gap, including n8n.io’s $180M (2025-10-08) and Lanes & Planes’ $35M (2023-10-16).
Are any cities over-represented, suggesting a geographic cluster for software funding?
Berlin appears repeatedly across different stages and years, including n8n.io ($180M, 2025-10-08), Climatiq ($12M, 2025-06-25), Mercanis ($20M, 2025-06-18), Restate ($7M, 2024-06-10), and Mediaire ($13M, 2024-11-13). Outside Berlin, Munich and Hamburg recur but with fewer disclosed entries than Berlin within the rows shown.
How concentrated are the rounds near the top of the date range (most recent 90 days in the list)?
Within the most recent 90 days of the shown data (counting back from 2025-10-08), the table includes n8n.io (2025-10-08, $180M), plus Plancraft (2025-08-13, $45M) and pyck (2025-07-23, $3M). Other nearby disclosed deals around that window include Climatiq (2025-06-25, $12M) and Mercanis (2025-06-18, $20M).
What stage labeling patterns stand out, and how might they affect comparisons?
“Series Unknown” shows up in 6 rows (e.g., Aparkado 2025-01-09, Mediaire 2024-11-13, Sport Alliance 2023-11-27), while 5 rows have amounts marked “undisclosed” (e.g., Persival 2024-12-12; eco.mio 2024-06-18). Together, they create measurement gaps when comparing stage size directly, even though some labeled rounds still show clear scale outliers like Forto’s $250M (2022-03-07).
Which entries are worth a closer look as low-amount or other disclosure outliers?
At the low end, multiple disclosed rounds are at $100K, including Procuros (Seed, 2022-03-07, $100K) and Retamo (Seed, 2021-09-13, $100K), which is far below the rest of the disclosed range. At the high end, Forto’s $250M (2022-03-07) and n8n.io’s $180M (2025-10-08) sit well above the $45M ceiling seen in the next cluster of recent disclosed rounds such as Plancraft ($45M on 2025-08-13).
