Recent South Carolina funding activity shown here (50 rows, newest round dated 2026-06-23 for CompanAIn at $1M) is bifurcated by disclosed deal size. The largest disclosed round is Southern First Bank at $105M on 2026-04-06 (TMGOC Ventures), and it dwarfs the next-largest disclosed amounts: $80M (Vermillion Farms on 2026-04-22), $65M (Southern First Bank on 2026-04-15), and $50M (none; the next tier tops at $36M for Glytec on 2025-06-17). Smaller disclosed rounds cluster heavily around tens of thousands to a few million, with several entries at $30K (e.g., Memberworks on 2026-06-09; Clutch Intelligence on 2026-04-14; Realize Ascent Labs on 2026-04-14; Renoverse AI on 2026-04-14).
The list also concentrates by time: 28 of the 50 rounds fall on 2026-04-02 or between 2026-04-01 and 2026-04-14 (e.g., AirGuard $600K on 2026-04-02; Carolina Seed Systems $600K on 2026-04-02; Qwerky AI $400K on 2026-02-17 is later, but the densest block is early April 2026). Sector-wise, “Agriculture and Farming” appears in 10 entries (notably the repeated $600K cluster on 2026-04-02 across multiple farm names), while “Artificial Intelligence (AI)” appears in 6 entries (including CompanAIn $1M on 2026-06-23 and multiple $30K–$20K rounds on 2026-04-14). Stages are frequently unspecified: “Series Unknown” appears 32 times, alongside 9 “undisclosed” amounts and 1 explicit $0K (CommunityWorks, 2025-10-07).

Frequently asked
What’s the largest disclosed round in this South Carolina feed, and how far ahead is it of the rest of the disclosed amounts?
The largest disclosed amount is $105M tied to TMGOC Ventures on 2026-04-06; it sits well above the next-largest disclosed amounts of $80M (Vermillion Farms, 2026-04-22), $65M (Southern First Bank, 2026-04-15), and $50K-level disclosures (many entries are far below these, such as multiple $30K rounds in April–June 2026).
Is funding concentrated in a specific date window, or spread evenly across the period shown?
There’s a strong early-April 2026 concentration: 2026-04-02 alone includes multiple entries at $600K across Agriculture and Farming (AirGuard is $600K on 2026-04-02, and several farm companies also show $600K on that same date), and the broader densest stretch runs from 2026-04-01 through 2026-04-14 (e.g., Trantech $25M on 2026-04-01; multiple $20K–$30K AI/software rounds on 2026-04-14).
Which sector is over-represented in this list, and what pattern supports that?
“Agriculture and Farming” is the most frequent sector with 10 entries, and it is reinforced by the repeated $600K disclosed amounts dated 2026-04-02 across multiple farm entities (e.g., Carolina Seed Systems, City Roots Farm, Growing Green Family Farms, Kindlewood Farms, Marsh Hen Mill, and Microledon Farm all show $600K on that date).
How often are amounts or stages missing, and does that affect comparisons of deal size?
Stages are frequently unspecified: “Series Unknown” appears 32 times. Amounts are also frequently not provided, with 9 rows marked “undisclosed” (e.g., Local Boy Outfitters on 2026-05-19; Absentia Technologies on 2026-05-01), plus a single explicit $0K entry (CommunityWorks on 2025-10-07), so largest/smallest comparisons rely only on disclosed $ amounts.
Are there notable outliers beyond the biggest check size, such as unusually small disclosed rounds or unusual geography names?
Yes for size: despite many disclosed rounds in the tens of thousands (e.g., several $30K entries like Memberworks on 2026-06-09 and $20K entries like Pathly on 2026-04-14), there are also extremely small disclosed amounts like Rebuild Upstate at $10K on 2025-12-09 and multiple $10K/$50K-level disclosures. Geography also shows a naming/placement quirk where “Texas, South Carolina, United States” appears in multiple rows (e.g., CORE Tax Deeds on 2026-04-05, Nomadar on 2026-03-19), which stands out relative to the more typical city/county listings.
