Ideogram, a company developing artificial intelligence image generation technology, is raising $80 million from investors — a large round for a startup that’s less than two years old.
The Toronto-based startup is set to announce its Series A funding round on Wednesday, Ideogram Chief Executive Officer and co-founder Mohammad Norouzi told Bloomberg. Andreessen Horowitz is leading the round, with participation from Index Ventures, Redpoint Ventures, Pear VC and SV Angel. The startup declined to give its valuation.
