Elorian - Seed: $55M at $300M valuation as the ex-DeepMind visual AI startup emerges from stealth with backing from NVIDIA and Menlo Ventures.
Elorian emerged from stealth in April 2026 with a $55M seed round at a $300M valuation. The round was backed by NVIDIA, Menlo Ventures, Altimeter, Striker Ventures, 49 Palms, and AI researcher Jeff Dean.
Founded by Andrew Dai (ex-Google DeepMind, Gemini pre-training architect) and Yinfei Yang (ex-Apple Research, on-device AI), Elorian is building multimodal foundation models with native visual reasoning for robotics and industrial automation — a single neural architecture integrating sight, hearing, and text.
