Together AI has raised $800 million in Series C funding at an $8.3 billion post-money valuation. The round was led by Aramco Ventures, with participation from Vista Equity Partners, General Catalyst, Emergence Capital, NVIDIA, and others. The San Francisco-based company provides infrastructure for running open-source AI models at significantly lower costs than closed systems. It helps companies train and run workloads on models like DeepSeek, Nemotron, and MiniMax. Together AI's annual bookings surpassed $1.15 billion last quarter. The company serves thousands of paying customers, including Cursor, Cognition, and Decagon. Customers report cost savings of 6x to 60x compared to closed-model pricing. The company plans to use the funding to expand its products and scale its infrastructure capacity roughly 50-fold over the next five years.
Buyout firm Vista explores $3 billion sale of private markets data provider Allvue, sources say. Amy-Jo Crowley, David French and Milana Vinn By Amy-Jo Crowley, David French and Milana Vinn LONDON/NEW YORK, Aug 21 (Reuters) - Vista Equity Partners is weighing a potential sale of Allvue Systems, in a deal that could value the provider of data and analytics for asset managers and credit investors at as much as $3 billion including debt, four people familiar with the matter said. The move comes almost five years since Allvue's efforts to list via an initial public offering on the New York Stock Exchange were thwarted by the end of a bull run in financial technology stocks in the fall of 2021. While many companies have struggled with subdued investor interest and depressed valuations in the years since, 2026 has seen a recovery in deal-making efforts involving specialized financial technology and data providers which have businesses resilient to the growth of artificial intelligence. Against this more positive backdrop, Vista has engaged bankers at Evercore and Barclays to explore sale options for the Miami-headquartered Allvue, whose products help manage investments, track performance and streamline back-office operations. Discussions with potential buyers are at an early stage, said the sources who cautioned that no deal was guaranteed and spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss confidential information. Vista and Barclays declined comment. Allvue and Evercore did not respond to comment requests. Vista formed Allvue Systems in 2019 by acquiring AltaReturn and merging it with its existing portfolio company, Black Mountain Systems. The company has since expanded through acquisitions, including private markets software firm PFA Solutions in 2024. Allvue now generates more than $200 million in annual recurring revenue, one of the people said. Allvue could fetch somewhere between $2 billion and $3 billion in the event of a sale, said the person and a further source, based on the firm's annual growth rate of more than 15%, margins exceeding 30%, and valuations achieved by comparable companies in the sectors. By comparison, when Vista pulled Allvue's IPO in September 2021, it was seeking a valuation of around $1.7 billion. As well as broader sector tailwinds, Allvue should benefit from perceived scarcity value, given few of its peers are not already inside large financial institutions. For example, BlackRock completed its £2.55 billion ($3.5 billion) acquisition of Preqin in March 2025.

EQT to sell Quantios, a leading provider of SaaS solutions to the global Trust and Corporate Services industry, to Vista Equity Partners. Jul 30, 2026 * During EQT's ownership, Quantios evolved into a global software platform serving close to 700 organizations worldwide through the combination of ViewPoint and TrustQuay * EQT supported Quantios' transformation through cloud migration, AI innovation and product expansion, including the launch of Quantios Core and the acquisition of Klea * The transaction demonstrates EQT's strategy of partnering with founder-led and mid-market technology companies to build stronger, more global businesses through active ownership, strategic M&A and value creation SYDNEY, July 30, 2026 /PRNewswire/ - EQT today announced that the EQT Private Capital Asia Mid-Market Opportunities Fund I ("EQT") has agreed to sell its stake in Quantios, a leading provider of SaaS solutions to the globalTrust and Corporate Services industry, to Vista Equity Partners. EQT initially partnered with the founders of Malaysia-based ViewPoint in 2023 to support the company's next stage of growth. During EQT's ownership, ViewPoint combined with TrustQuay (backed by technology investor, HG) to create Quantios, bringing together two highly complementary businesses to build a global software platform serving close to 700 organizations worldwide. Today, Quantios supports customers across more than 100 jurisdictions with software that helps streamline complex trust and corporate administration workflows. Working alongside the management team, EQT supported Quantios' transformation through the launch of Quantios Core, a cloud-native SaaS platform that modernized customer workflows and accelerated the transition from on-premise software to a subscription-based model. The business also strengthened its AI capabilities and expanded into new customer segments through the acquisition of Klea, an AI-powered legal entity management platform for corporate legal departments. Nicholas Macksey, Co-Head of EQT Private Capital Asia and Head of Asia's Mid-Market strategy, said: "The successful exit of Quantios is an important milestone for our Asia mid-market strategy. It demonstrates our ability to create value through active ownership and deliver successful outcomes, even in a more selective market for software transactions this year. Asia Pacific continues to offer compelling opportunities for high-quality mid-market companies, and we believe EQT's sector expertise, operational capabilities, and global network position us well to help founders and management teams accelerate their next stage of growth." Jacob Van der Wiel, Managing Director within EQT Private Capital Asia's Mid-Market strategy, said: "When we invested in ViewPoint, we saw the opportunity to partner with an ambitious founder and build a global software platform. Through the combination with TrustQuay, continued investment in an AI-powered next-generation cloud platform, and the strategic acquisition of Klea, Quantios has evolved into a stronger, more diversified business with global reach. We're proud of what we have accomplished together and believe the company is well-positioned for continued success in its next chapter." Guy Harrison, Chief Executive Officer of Quantios, said: "Since partnering with EQT and Hg, we've transformed two specialist software businesses into a scaled, integrated platform serving hundreds of customers across the Trust and Corporate Services sector. We've expanded internationally, accelerated product development and helped our customers navigate two of the biggest technology shifts our industry has seen: first the move to cloud, and now agentic. I'm incredibly proud of what the team has achieved and grateful to EQT and Hg for their support and partnership. We've built a fantastic business and I'm excited about the next phase of growth alongside Vista." The successful transformation and exit of Quantios highlights the momentum of EQT Private Capital Asia's mid-market strategy, which complements the firm's flagship large-cap strategy by partnering with high-quality businesses across Asia Pacific. The transaction is subject to customary conditions and approvals and is expected to be completed in Q3 2026.
