Mirendil raises $1B Series A led by Kleiner Perkins
Start here
Mirendil has raised a $1B Series A led by Kleiner Perkins and Clearlake Capital, with participation from Battery Ventures, Google, M13, Pear VC and others. The company says the money will fund tools aimed at making frontier AI R&D accessible to scientists and engineers. Mirendil says one researcher working with agents pretrained Mirendil-Base, a competitive coding model, from scratch in 3.5 months with less than $10M in compute, then post-trained it into Fern, which handles up to 10M tokens of context. Its Lor product, now in private beta, is designed to let hundreds of agents write code and run experiments for days at a time; Mirendil says it runs on Lor every day.
