OpenAI Closes $122B Round at $852B Valuation
OpenAI just completed the largest private funding round in history, valuing it at $852B with $2B/month in revenue.
OpenAI has officially closed its record-breaking $122 billion funding round at a $852 billion post-money valuation — making it the most valuable private company on the planet.
SoftBank, Amazon ($50B), and Nvidia ($30B) anchored the round. For the first time, OpenAI opened the door to individual investors, pulling in $3 billion from retail participants through bank channels. The company is generating $2 billion in monthly revenue and posted $13.1B in total revenue last year — though it remains unprofitable and cash-burning.
The raise is explicitly tied to building an AI "super-app" and accelerating the next phase of AI development. An IPO is targeted for Q4 2026.
Why it matters: At $852B, OpenAI is now worth more than most Fortune 50 companies — and it hasn't turned a profit yet. The IPO will be one of the most watched market events in years.
