Thrilled to announce our Series B today which at a $1.25B valuation. Huge thank you to @tomloverro and the team at @IVP for leading this round, with participation from Alphabet’s @CapitalG and @SapphireVC and continued support from @sequoia, @benchmark and @AmplifyPartners It’s been a privilege to see the company grow and evolve over the past three years from humble beginnings as a single open source package into a suite of products providing the backbone of how teams build, scale, observe, and test LLM applications. In addition to our open source offerings, I'm personally excited about how far LangSmith has come as a product. The journey of scaling the platform into one that can serve mission-critical AI workloads has been one full of hard work and often late-night debugging sessions. Each challenge made our product better and our team sharper. This milestone is just the beginning. I’m incredibly energized to take LangChain to the next level with amazing team; scaling our platform, growing our offerings and pushing the boundaries of what’s possible with agents.

We raised $125M to build the platform for agent engineering. Thank you to our investors (@IVP, @sequoia, @benchmark, @AmplifyPartners, @SapphireVC, @CapitalG, and more) for their belief in us, and to our customers like @Replit, @clay, @TrustVanta, @Cloudflare, @Rippling, @Cisco, @Workday, and many more for their trust.

Great people, conversations and food! What's not to like!

GenAI is disrupting all industries–from the most basic to the highly technical, including the future of development. 🛠️ Last week, we teamed up with @MenloVentures to bring together @dmwlff, creator of Claude Code at @AnthropicAI & Lukas Biewald @l2k from @weights_biases, for this discussion. A few key themes emerged: → AI is becoming a core part of the dev stack, enabling seamless integration with systems and workflows. → Speed is the new competitive edge. AI models are accelerating development, making time-to-delivery the key success metric. → Reinforcement learning (RL) is transforming AI models, improving their adaptability & performance in real-world scenarios. → AI-driven dev workflows are replacing traditional CI/CD, with AI handling more code generation, testing, and deployment.

Easiest way to become hyper focused with time is having a toddler, a newborn pair of twins and a startup taking off. Easy.
