FAQs about Convex

Funding context and why this company shows up in venture coverage.

Convex is a backend platform for TypeScript developers — combining a reactive database, serverless functions, and real-time sync so teams build collaborative web and mobile apps without managing servers or writing SQL boilerplate.
Andreessen Horowitz (see /fund/andreessen-horowitz) led the Series A and co-led growth rounds. Spark Capital (see /fund/spark-capital) co-led the 2025 round; General Catalyst (see /fund/general-catalyst) and Neo (see /fund/neo) also participated.
Growth round ($24M, 2025) following a $26M Series A in 2022. The company remains private.

No — Convex remains a private company.
