Robot Ventures is leading with USV participating, less than three months after a $50M Series A (TechCrunch). Hermes sits at roughly 214K GitHub stars and 40K forks, and Nous now sells a cloud-hosted version across paid tiers from $20 to $200 a month. The signal for builders: open-weight agent runtimes are becoming venture-scale businesses with real hosting paths, not just community repos you self-host and pray. That gives you a credible fully-open alternative to the closed agent stacks, with someone on the hook to keep the lights on.
