LangChain, one of the earliest breakout startups of the generative AI era, announced a $125 million Series B funding round on Monday at a $1.25 billion valuation.
The startup, which created an eponymous open-source framework for connecting AI apps to real-time data, hopes its tools can become the default building blocks that companies use to unleash a multitude of AI agents—while its investors believe the company has the potential to become as successful as other foundational digital infrastructure companies like CrowdStrike (for cybersecurity) and Datadog (for data monitoring).
