humans& is an AI research lab with an explicitly human-centric thesis: the most valuable AI systems will be the ones designed around augmenting and collaborating with people, not replacing them. The founding team includes alumni of Anthropic, xAI, and Google.
The lab announced a $480 million seed round on January 20, 2026 - one of the largest seed rounds ever raised - valuing the young company at $4.48 billion. Investors include Nvidia, Jeff Bezos, and GV, among others.
