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 28, 2026, 3:46 PM 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.
Wabi, the startup from Replika founder Eugenia Kuyda, has raised $55 million at a valuation of $1.25 billion.
The round closed on October 29, 2026. That is roughly a month after the company announced it was rebuilding its product around AI agents.
Institutional Venture Partners (IVP) led the round. Andreessen Horowitz, the Amazon Alexa Fund and Forerunner Ventures also took part, along with a group of notable angel investors.
From app builder to AI agent
Wabi did not start out as an agent company. Its original pitch let anyone build apps simply by writing prompts.
That changed with Wabi 2.0, which the company announced in late September 2026. The new version is a messenger-style agent rather than an app-building workshop.
Wabi 2.0 supports multi-thread chats, shared access between users, and mini-apps that the agent spins up on demand.
The full public launch of Wabi 2.0 followed in mid-to-late October 2026. So the funding round closed only days or weeks after regular users could actually try the thing.

The money trail
This is not Wabi’s first raise. The company closed a $20 million pre-seed round in November 2025, led by Andreessen Horowitz.
Add the new $55 million, and Wabi has now raised $75 million across two rounds in about 11 months. That is a lot of capital for a product that, as of now, costs nothing to use.
Wabi remains free and has no finalized monetization model. Investors are valuing it at $1.25 billion on the strength of its product, its founder and its trajectory, not on revenue.
The lead investor also changed hands between rounds. a16z led the pre-seed, while IVP stepped in to lead this one. a16z stayed on as a participant.
The Amazon Alexa Fund’s presence is worth noting on its own. The fund is the investment arm attached to Amazon’s voice assistant business.
Why Kuyda’s track record matters
Kuyda is not a first-time founder asking investors to take a leap of faith. She previously built Replika, the AI companion app that has drawn roughly 35 to 40 million users.
Kuyda stepped down as Replika’s CEO in early 2025 to launch Wabi.
What this means for the AI assistant race
Wabi’s angle is collaboration. Shared access and multi-thread chats point toward an agent that sits inside group conversations rather than one that only serves a single user in private.
