Founder Spotlight: A $2B Bet on One Woman’s Vision

📍 San Francisco, CA

Mira Murati helped build ChatGPT. Now she wants to reinvent the next wave of AI—and investors are lining up to fund her vision.

Her new stealth startup, Thinking Machines Lab, hasn’t launched a product. There’s no demo. But they’re already raising $2 billion at a $10B valuation.

What’s different? The team. Half of it is made up of OpenAI alumni. Their goal? Create customizable, human-level AI systems that anyone can adapt and understand.

Why it matters:

  • This could become the biggest AI seed round in history

  • It shows the value of reputation in an overhyped market

  • And it proves: you don’t need to ship yet—if people believe in you

Murati isn’t just building tech. She’s building trust.
