Across the 39 Venice-based entries shown, the largest disclosed round is $150M by Genies (Series C) dated 2022-04-12. That figure dwarfs the next-largest disclosed amounts in the list, including $100M for Credit Key (debt financing) on 2022-10-19 and $40M for Seed Health (Series A) on 2021-04-21; most other disclosed rounds sit materially below these levels.
Several clusters appear in both geography and timing. Calendar-wise, there is a dense concentration in 2024 (many entries land between 2024-01-11 and 2024-11-14), with multiple AI- and financial-services-related deals (e.g., Kaizen Labs on 2025-11-02, Senpi on 2025-09-21, Polymer Labs on 2024-01-23, and Not Impossible on 2023-10-24). Geographically, the dataset mixes “Venice, United States” (e.g., Kaizen Labs on 2025-11-02 and OSEA on 2025-09-21) with “Venice, California, United States” (e.g., Polymer Labs, Sway, and Genies).

Frequently asked
Which disclosed round is an outlier in Venice, and how far above the rest is it?
Genies’ $150M Series C on 2022-04-12 is the highest disclosed amount in the list. The next-largest disclosed figures shown are $100M for Credit Key (2022-10-19) and $40M for Seed Health (2021-04-21), placing Genies clearly above the upper range of other disclosed rounds.
Do the most recent deals cluster tightly by time in this Venice list?
Yes: several rounds fall in late 2025, including Kaizen Labs ($21M) on 2025-11-02, OSEA (undisclosed) on 2025-09-21, and Senpi ($4M) on 2025-09-21. Earlier, the 2024 window is also crowded, with multiple disclosed rounds from 2024-01-11 (Sway, $20M) through 2024-11-14 (Fixe, $680K).
Is “Venice” in these rows mostly one geography, or split across different “Venice” labels?
It’s split between “Venice, United States” and “Venice, California, United States.” The latest entry, Kaizen Labs ($21M) on 2025-11-02, is under “Venice, United States,” while many other entries (e.g., Polymer Labs $23M on 2024-01-23 and Genies $150M on 2022-04-12) are labeled “Venice, California, United States.”
How often are amounts undisclosed or the round type missing, and does that affect comparisons?
Undisclosed amounts appear for OSEA (2025-09-21), The Lighthouse (2025-06-16), Promise (2025-05-20), and Superlocal (2023-10-22), among others. “Series Unknown” is also common (e.g., Busforfun on 2025-07-14 and WEVR on 2024-06-05), so stage-by-stage comparisons rely mostly on the subset with explicit amounts and/or clearer round labels.
Which sector themes repeat most frequently across these Venice entries?
AI shows up repeatedly (Kaizen Labs, Senpi, Promise, and RAD AI), spanning dates from 2025-11-02 back to 2024-09-03. Financial Services is another recurring theme, including Fixe ($680K) on 2024-11-14, Polymer Labs ($23M) on 2024-01-23, Not Impossible ($7M) on 2023-10-24, RabbitHole ($18M) on 2022-02-16, and Carpay ($7M) on 2021-01-07.
