The median is $7.5M, from 44 seed rounds announced in Big Data & Analytics in the last twelve months. Half of them raised between $3.5M and $14M; one in ten raised more than $28M. Which rounds are counted? Rounds announced in the last twelve months with a stated amount and stage, each read from a named article or filing. A page is only published where at least 30 rounds stand behind it. Are these figures biased? Towards larger rounds, yes. Big rounds are announced; many small ones never are. So the true typical round is probably a little smaller than the figure here, especially at pre-seed and seed. How often does it change? The figures are recounted from the record every night, as new rounds are read.
