AI Unicorns and Soonicorns Surge: 2025’s Momentum Continues

Here are the most notable signals from the latest TechPulse MegaMap scan:

• xAI, valued at $70B (as of July 1), remains a key player to watch with its rumored agent-driven infrastructure and autonomous web layer.
• Thinking Machines Lab ($10B valuation) is expanding its role in enterprise LLM deployment and data-to-insight pipelines.
• Harvey.ai ($5B), known for its legal agent copilots, is rapidly diversifying into regulated verticals like compliance and healthcare.

These companies represent the next layer of enterprise-AI abstraction: instead of building foundational models, they’re embedding LLMs into domain-specific workflows — legal ops, data analytics, and developer tooling.

These trends suggest continued venture appetite for applied AI plays, especially those leveraging multi-agent or human-in-the-loop architectures.
