Sophia Dew reports that Crusoe is seeking roughly $3 billion at a $13 billion valuation while pursuing a five-year data-center capacity agreement with Jane Street worth about $13 billion. She also covers FluidStack's $1.5 billion raise at a valuation above $18 billion as it builds Google TPU facilities for Anthropic.
The funding extends beyond data centers. Gimlet Labs raised $300 million to coordinate inference across different kinds of silicon, while Wonderful raised $550 million to deploy enterprise agents across customer service, finance and internal operations.
Dew also highlights Upwind's $300 million cloud-runtime security round, Achronix's $125 million optical-switch financing and Light's $165 million robotics-perception raise. Together, the deals show investors backing the compute, networking, security and sensing layers needed to operate AI systems at scale.
