内容总结:

AI训练数据初创公司AfterQuery近日完成新一轮融资,估值飙升至32亿美元。这一数字距离其今年4月公布3000万美元A轮融资、估值3亿美元仅过去五个月,估值增长超过十倍。据Y Combinator合伙人Gustaf Alströmer透露,这是该孵化器历史上从创立到成为独角兽速度最快的创业公司。

AfterQuery两位创始人现年分别为22岁和23岁,他们18个月前刚参加Y Combinator 2025年冬季训练营。这家旧金山初创公司曾在4月宣布其年化收入已达1亿美元,并与多家顶级实验室展开合作,客户包括英伟达、Legora及韩国AI实验室Motif Technologies。

AfterQuery属于新兴创业公司阵营,效仿Mercor和Scale的模式,聘请医生、律师等专业人才参与模型训练。与确保模型回答准确不同,AfterQuery专注于训练模型和智能体像专业人士一样完成任务,该公司将这一过程描述为“编码全球最优秀从业者的模式、决策和推理方式”。

福布斯率先报道了这一融资消息。截至发稿时,AfterQuery尚未回应置评请求。

AI训练数据初创公司AfterQuery据报道已完成一轮融资,估值达到32亿美元。这距离该公司4月份宣布完成3000万美元A轮融资、估值3亿美元仅过去五个月。

短短不到半年时间估值增长超过10倍,据Y Combinator合伙人Gustaf Alströmer称,这是该加速器历史上从成立到成为独角兽速度最快的初创公司。AfterQuery的两位创始人今年分别22岁和23岁,18个月前刚刚参加了Y Combinator 2025年冬季班。

4月份,这家旧金山初创公司表示其年化收入运行率已达1亿美元,并正在与多家顶级实验室合作。该公司已公开的客户包括Nvidia、Legora以及韩国AI实验室Motif Technologies。

AfterQuery是继Mercor和Scale之后新兴的一批初创公司之一,这些公司聘请医生、律师等知识型专业人士及其他专家参与模型训练。不过,AfterQuery的重点并非确保模型准确回答问题,而是训练模型和智能体像专业人士一样开展工作、完成任务——该公司将其描述为“编码全球顶尖从业者的模式、决策和推理方式”。

《福布斯》率先报道了这一轮融资。记者暂未能联系到AfterQuery置评。

AI training-data startup AfterQuery has reportedly raised a round that valued it at $3.2 billion. This just five months after announcing its $30 million Series A at a $300 million valuation in April.
That’s more than a 10x increase in less than half a year and, according to Y Combinator partner Gustaf Alströmer, the fastest that any startup has gone from launch to unicorn status in the accelerator’s history. AfterQuery’s founders, today 22 and 23 years old, attended Y Combinator’s Winter 2025 cohort, just 18 months ago.
In April, the San Francisco startup said it had reached an annualized revenue run rate of $100 million and that it was working with many of the biggest labs. It has named companies such as Nvidia, Legora, and the Korean AI lab Motif Technologies as customers.
AfterQuery is among the new crop of startups following in the footsteps of Mercor and Scale that employ knowledge professionals like doctors, lawyers, and other specialists to do model training. However, rather than ensuring that models answer questions accurately, AfterQuery trains models and agents on how to work like professionals would to complete tasks — what the company describes as “encoding the patterns, decisions, and reasoning of the world’s best practitioners.”
Forbes first reported on the round. AfterQuery could not be immediately reached for comment.
