Honored to join @HF0 for S26
We're building @FranklinRun_ : an AI agent with its own wallet — it auto-picks the best model for every task and pays per action in USDC.
An AI agent that can pay and get paid. 👇
Today we’re announcing our $113M Series B led by @CapitalGVC.
Over the last 6 months, weekly volume on OpenRouter grew from 5T to 25T tokens as AI rapidly shifts from experimentation into production.
We’re excited for what comes next.
We just raised $30M at a $500M valuation, bringing our total funding to $47M.
Led by @craft_ventures , with @PaceCap , @chemistry , TruArrow, and others.
But before anything else: this belongs to the community.
ComfyUI started as one developer and one open-source repo. No roadmap. No company. Just creators who wanted real control over how they built with AI.
That community is now:
→ 4 million users
→ 60,000+ community-built nodes
→ 150,000+ daily downloads
Every number traces back to people who built in the open, for anyone to use.
Here's where the funding goes:
→ Comfy Cloud: for teams and studios that need security and scale
→ Collaborative workflows: versioning and iteration built for how studios actually work
→ A better local experience: more seamless, more stable
→ Ecosystem reliability: making 60,000+ community nodes more dependable
→ Day-one model support: every major release, compatible at launch
We are not building a walled garden.
We are building open infrastructure, built to last.
Thank you genuinely,
The ComfyUI Team

Recursive self-improving AI is here.
I had heard people talking about self-improving AIs at some of the frontier labs but wasn't sure how real it was.
One of the neo labs in the current @hf0 batch had a breakthrough and now it’s running in our basement. It’s real.
