ⓘ How this is measured
Every item in our continuously monitored AI-news stream is read by an LLM classifier that extracts explicit deals between two named organizations — a partnership, an investment, or an acquisition — as stated in the article. A deal is only recorded when the item actually asserts it; two companies merely mentioned together never create an edge. Deals are aggregated over a 45-day window into this map: each edge is one relationship, colored by its dominant type and thickened by how many news items evidence it; an edge carrying more than one type (e.g. a partnership that is also an investment) shows as “mixed.” Organizations that anchor at least 3 deals are drawn as boxed hubs.
Each deal is also connected to the use-case catalog: the news items behind it are linked to published deployment cases by embedding similarity, so a relationship can be cross-checked against real, verified deployments — the “linked cases” count. Snapshots are kept per day, so newly detected deals are flagged (dashed edges) and the map builds its own history. Select any organization to see its deals, or any edge to see the headlines and deployment cases behind it.

Extracted from explicitly stated deals in the news stream — this is a signal ledger, not a funding database. Where an investee also appears in our deployment catalog, its cases are linked above; most freshly funded startups have none yet, which is itself the finding.
