Missing figures stay unavailable. Forward P/E requires a dated source. Annual revenue, revenue growth, net income and margin come from each company's own 10-K, in US dollars, and each row shows that fiscal year. Revenue growth compares the fiscal year with the prior year stated in the same 10-K. Net income is the full year amount attributable to the company, or available to common stockholders where the filing states only that, or consolidated net income. Each row names its basis. Trailing P/E reads "Not meaningful" when the dated trailing diluted EPS is a loss or zero. An operating margin appears only when the filing states both the operating income and the revenue for the same year.
Sources: SEC filings, Gloria daily closes and CoinGecko. Oldest record refresh: Oct 29, 2026, 11:51 AM EDT. Refresh is not a price or filing date. Each row shows its price date and its annual fiscal period. Peers use industry code and company size, or editorial selection. Market cap multiplies that row price by the company share total the latest SEC filing states for every share class together. Trailing P/E divides it by trailing diluted earnings from SEC filings. Rolled earnings per share are approximate because share counts can change between periods. Both appear only when the SEC data carries its date, so they are estimates at one price date, not synchronized filing valuations. Not investment advice.

Quoted token and share units can have different rights, multipliers and dividend treatment. This is not an executable premium or arbitrage signal.
Jeff Bezos is apparently comfortable playing both sides of the table. In a CNBC interview on June 11, the Amazon founder openly discussed scenarios where Project Prometheus, the AI startup he co-founded, could work with Amazon to optimize its data centers, or alternatively, compete with the tech giant in that same space.
What Prometheus actually does
Project Prometheus is not another chatbot company. The San Francisco-based startup focuses exclusively on what it calls “physical AI,” building tools designed to improve the engineering, design, and manufacturing of complex systems like computers, automobiles, and spacecraft.
The company launched publicly in November 2025 with $6.2 billion in initial funding. Bezos co-founded the venture alongside Vik Bajaj, and the two serve as co-CEOs. The team currently numbers around 120 employees.
Subsequent funding rounds have pushed the valuation to somewhere in the $38 to $41 billion range.
The Amazon Connection
Bezos suggested during the CNBC interview that hyperscale tech companies, Amazon included, might eventually use Prometheus tools to optimize their data centers. He also floated the reverse scenario: Prometheus could become a customer of Amazon Web Services for its computation needs. Neither of these arrangements currently exists. There are no formal partnerships between Prometheus and Amazon at this time.

What this means for investors
Prometheus has no tokens, no blockchain components, and no public connection to digital assets.
A $38 to $41 billion valuation for a seven-month-old company with 120 employees is either a sign of extraordinary confidence in the technology or a sign that we’ve learned nothing from previous valuation bubbles. The $6.2 billion initial raise alone signals that institutional investors see Prometheus as a category-defining bet rather than a speculative flier.
The company’s deliberate exclusion of robotics and general-purpose chat models from its scope is also telling. By staying narrowly focused on physical AI for engineering and manufacturing, Prometheus avoids direct competition with the generative AI heavyweights while positioning itself as a potential vendor to all of them.
