SUMMARY

  • Real-time generative media platform fal has announced a $140 million Series D round, bringing its total funding to more than $400 million.

Founded in Türkiye, fal provides an infrastructure layer for real-time AI-generated content, enabling developers and enterprises to run any model open-source, private, or commercial through a single, ultra-low-latency serverless API. The platform scales automatically across the globe and removes DevOps complexity, allowing teams to deploy generative applications in minutes instead of months.

Today, fal supports millions of developers and hundreds of enterprise teams across commerce, design, entertainment, and emerging AI-native use cases. Companies use the platform for real-time video generation, hyper-personalised media, immersive creative tools, advertising workflows, and more.

This funding follows fal’s $125 million Series C in July 2025, when the company had already tripled revenue since 2024 and surpassed two million developers on its platform. Fal also raised $49 million in a Series B round earlier the same year.

The round was led by Sequoia, with participation from Kleiner Perkins, and new investment from NVentures, NVIDIA’s venture capital arm, and Alkeon Capital. It also includes continued backing from existing investors, including Andreessen Horowitz (a16z), Kindred Ventures, Meritech, Bessemer Venture Partners, Notable Capital, Shopify Ventures, Salesforce Ventures, and others.

“Sequoia, Kleiner Perkins and NVentures joining fal is a powerful signal about where generative media is heading and who is going to define it,” said Burkay Gur, co-founder and CEO of fal.

“Developers and enterprises are building entirely new categories of applications around real-time, personalised, generative content. fal is the infrastructure that makes that possible at a global scale.”

“fal's momentum has been undeniable developers and enterprises kept telling us they were the platform to use for creating media with AI,” said Sonya Huang, Partner at Sequoia.

“As inference is one of the largest technology markets and video its most demanding slice, fal's speed, model selection, and workflow and collaboration features position them to define the category. We’re proud to back a team enabling high‑quality, AI‑generated video at scale.”

The Series D funding will fuel hiring across go-to-market and engineering teams, advance the development of new product lines, and expand fal’s global infrastructure footprint to meet rapidly growing demand.
