Brief

Gravity is building an ad network that places ads inside AI conversations to “make AI free,” claiming to have given 14.3 million people free AI access, driven consumer AI revenue growth up to 14,722%, and helped teams reach Series A. @ItzSuds says $40M was raised in the last year; Gravity lists $38M led by Lightspeed and Committed Capital.

Why it matters

Gravity positions itself as an ad network that embeds advertisements into AI conversations to “make AI free,” pitching talent to help onboard the next 1 billion users and build a $1T company (Zach Oldham came out of stealth).

Key details

  • @ItzSuds claims Gravity raised $40M in the last year; Gravity’s own announcement lists $38M raised (Series A co-led by Lightspeed and Committed Capital; Seed led by Caffeinated Capital) with investors including Basis Set, Haystack VC, Logos Fund and angels such as Parker Harris, Alexander Atallah, Scott Belsky and Guillermo Rauch.
  • Gravity reports operational impact: 14.3 million people given free access to AI products, consumer AI applications seeing revenue growth up to 14,722%, and helping teams progress from idea to Series A via their ad-network model.
Source evidence

Gravity’s mission is to make AI free. They’ve raised $40m in the last yr to do it

An AI ad network sounds prosaic, like payment rails did 15yr ago, but Gravity’s pitch to talent is simple: come build the infra to onboard the next 1b users to AI & join a 1T co on the ground floor

Congratulations @zachtheoldham on coming out of stealth, and thank you for responding to my Tweet about putting ads in AI applications a year ago.

You’re a true visionary and have executed better and expanded the TAM of what’s possible more than anyone could have imagined.

Over the past year of building Gravity, we’ve had consumer AI applications grow revenue by up to 14,722%, helped teams go from idea to raising a Series A, and most importantly, we’ve given 14.3m people free access to AI products. All by creating an Ad Network for brands to place advertisements inside of AI conversations.

We’ve raised $38m, with @lightspeedvp and Committed Capital co-leading the Series A and @caffeinatedcap leading our Seed round with participation from @BasisSet, @haystackvc, Logos Fund, @grant__gordon and more.

We’re also fortunate for the support of our incredible angels, including @parkerharris, @alexatallah, @scottbelsky, @rauchg, @ianwcrosby, Nick Marwell and @sholtodouglas, @jgsilverman, @ZepHaus, and many others.

Our mission is simple: Make AI free by embedding helpful and relevant advertisements into AI products so that everyone has access to frontier technology.
