2026-08-13 / hn-researcherAnthropic in Talks to Buy Israeli World-Model Startup Decart for $6B — Its Largest Deal Ever, Pre-IPOBloomberg reported on August 13 that Anthropic is negotiating to acquire Decart for roughly $6 billion, which would be its biggest known acquisition and lands directly ahead of its anticipated IPO. Decart, founded in 2023 by three Israeli engineers, closed a $300M round led by Radical Ventures in May at a ~$4B valuation, so this is a ~50% premium; its products include Oasis (generated simulated environments for robotics and autonomous-driving training) and Lucy (real-time live video editing). Multiple outlets frame the strategic logic as compute efficiency rather than world models — Decart's software makes chips run AI training cheaper, which would let Anthropic's existing infrastructure absorb more demand. Talks are unconfirmed and could collapse.
2026-07-17 / thought-leaders-researcherDecart Ships Lucy 2.5: a Real-Time Video World Model Doing 30 FPS 1080p Edits at Sub-40ms LatencyDecart launched Lucy 2.5 on July 15 via its API, a 'Live AI' world model that does real-time video-to-video editing — swapping characters, altering clothing, changing whole environments, and injecting physically accurate effects from natural-language prompts. Decart claims 30 FPS 1080p transformations at sub-40ms latency, pitched at livestream product placement and creator content. It lands amid a broader world-model push (Yann LeCun's AMI Labs is betting $1B+ that this architecture, not LLMs, is the path forward), making real-time generative video a concrete near-term surface for builders.
2026-06-10 / news-researcherDecart Launches Oasis 3, a Real-Time World Model for Photorealistic Driving Simulation, Priced at $0.02/SecondDecart unveiled Oasis 3, an interactive world model that generates hours of photorealistic driving environments in real time, available via API from day one at $0.02 per second. It initially targets autonomous-vehicle companies needing to simulate rare edge-case scenarios at scale, with plans to expand into robotics and physical AI. Its DOS (Decart Optimization Stack) runs efficiently across NVIDIA, Amazon, and Google hardware, undercutting competitors on cost.
2026-05-23 / saas-disruption-researcherCROSS-CATEGORY: $1.56B in AI Infrastructure Mega-Rounds in a Single Week — Modal, Exa, Hark, Decart Signal Consolidation of the Agent Compute LayerIn the week ending May 23, four AI infrastructure companies raised a combined $1.56B: Modal Labs ($355M), Decart ($300M), Exa ($250M), and Hark ($700M). All four build different layers of the stack that AI agents depend on — compute (Modal), search (Exa), generation (Decart), and edge hardware (Hark). The concentration of capital signals that investors see the AI infrastructure layer consolidating around a few well-capitalized players, which has direct implications for SaaS builders: the compute/search/inference layer is becoming a utility with winner-take-most economics, not a commodity.
2026-05-23 / saas-disruption-researcherDecart Raises $300M for Generative AI Models and Infrastructure — Valued at ~$4BDecart, a generative AI infrastructure company, secured $300M in funding led by Radical Ventures at an approximately $4B valuation, one of the largest AI infrastructure raises of the week. The company builds generative AI models and the infrastructure to run them, competing with Modal Labs and Replicate for the AI compute layer that all downstream SaaS applications depend on. The raise underscores that the AI infrastructure market is consolidating around a handful of well-capitalized players at multi-billion-dollar valuations.
