The formula
Ranked by the number of rounds we hold a verified claim for. A fund appears only if at least one of those rounds closed in the last 6 months - a deal count on its own rewards funds that were busy three years ago and have written nothing since. Ties go to whoever led more of their rounds, then to whoever wrote most recently.
Every round counted here is a claim in our graph with a source attached - a fund cannot appear on this list by telling us it is active. Where a company or a counterparty has confirmed the claim, it carries the stronger label on the fund’s own page.
20 funds are excluded by the activity gate.
They have rounds on record but nothing recent enough. Named here because a ranking that hides its exclusions is asking to be trusted rather than checked.
