Cognition opens early funding talks with valuation target of at least $40 billion

Cognition AI has entered early discussions with investors for a new funding round, according to a report cited by PANews from Cailian Press. If completed, the deal could lift the coding-focused startup’s valuation by more than 50% to at least $40 billion. The company’s annualized revenue run rate is said to be close to $1 billion, nearly double the figure disclosed during its previous financing round. The expected size of the new raise is more than $1 billion. Still, the transaction is not locked in. The report said Cognition could ultimately decide not to proceed with the fundraising, or it could choose a different financing structure with other terms. The talks are described as being at an early stage, which leaves room for changes before any final agreement is reached.
