Crusoe’s confirmed Series F, MIND, Comp AI, Kastle, Magentic, Mazama Energy, Ridgeline, and Matter Venture Partners Fund II are covered in separate September memos and day indexes on this site when published. Arcee, EUCLYD, and Impulse clusters likewise stay on their own dated pages.
Reading notes
- Angle’s $600M headline is $200M primary + $400M tender. WSJ secondary mark ~$2.5B is below the $2.7B primary print.
- D-Robotics lead naming differs: Yicai = Mirae; company PR is anonymized.
- Vantora amount is a floor (>$100M), not a precise cheque.
- Mantic confidence is reported (Reuters) — strong, but not a company IR page retrieved here.
- Month hub: September 2026 VC News.
