OpenAI has closed an $11 billion portion of its latest funding round at a valuation of $1.25 trillion, with the money wired to the company as of Friday, according to people familiar with the matter. The round is expected to grow, with the total potentially reaching $20 billion as additional commitments close in the coming weeks.

The closing marks a step down from OpenAI's initial ambitions. The company had originally set out to raise $30 billion or more at a valuation of $1.4 trillion. For context, OpenAI raised $122 billion at an $852 billion valuation in March 2026, meaning the new round still represents a significant jump in the company's assessed worth despite falling short of its original target. OpenAI declined to comment.
