Assessment

As of May 2021, D-ID had completed a $4.0 million Seed round (January 2018), approximately $5.0 million to $6.0 million in bridge financing and European grants (2018–2019), and a $13.5 million to $14 million Series A round (May 2020). Independent reporting from Business Insider in September 2020 pegged D-ID's cumulative capital raised at $23.5 million, which rounds directly to $24 million. Later press releases (e.g., the March 2022 Series B announcement) confirmed pre-Series B cumulative funding of roughly $23 million to $24 million ($48 million total minus $25 million Series B), confirming the accuracy of then-CEO Gil Perry's figure.

D-ID closed a $4.0 million Seed round in January 2018 and a $13.5M-$14M Series A in May 2020, supplemented by interim notes and grant allocations totaling $5M-$6M.
Business Insider reported on September 23, 2020, that D-ID's total capital raised stood at $23.5 million.
D-ID's March 2022 Series B announcement stated cumulative funding reached $48 million following a $25 million round, confirming pre-round historical funding of $23 million.
