AI startups dominate this week’s biggest U.S. funding rounds

Crunchbase’s roundup of the biggest announced rounds for U.S.-based companies from Nov. 7–13 was overwhelmingly AI-related. Mirendil, a San Francisco startup building agentic AI for R&D, led with a $1 billion Series A. Mercor, a platform connecting AI developers with human experts for model training and evaluation, raised $750 million in Series D funding at a reported $20 billion valuation. Torus announced $500 million in growth financing and introduced a modular AI infrastructure product. This is a snapshot of the biggest deals, not the week’s full funding mix.
