What is LiveKit's valuation?
LiveKit was valued at $1B in January 2026, the company said (livekit.com). A private company's valuation is set when it raises money, so it can be well out of date between rounds.
That puts LiveKit at number 49 of the 51 AI unicorns we profile, ranked by valuation.
How much funding has LiveKit raised?
No public source states LiveKit's total funding. The rounds below are the ones we could confirm; there may be others. The latest round was a $100M Series C in January 2026, led by Index Ventures.
| Date | Round | Amount | Led by | Valuation | Source |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| January 2026 | Series C | $100M | Index Ventures | $1B | livekit.com |
| April 2025 | Series B | $45M | Altimeter | $345M | finsmes.com (reported) |
What is LiveKit's revenue?
LiveKit has not published revenue or ARR, and we found no reliable press report of it. Night Watcher's traffic-based model puts its run rate at an estimated $10M to $50M a year. The model assumes self-serve sign-ups from website visits, so it can badly understate a company that sells through a sales team. Treat it as a rough scale, not a revenue figure.
ARR (annual recurring revenue) is the yearly value of current subscriptions; annualized revenue scales a recent month or quarter up to a year. Neither is audited revenue. See what ARR is.
