What is Dust? A Paris-based AI platform building multiplayer agentic systems for enterprise teams, founded 2023 by Stanislas Polu (ex-OpenAI) and Gabriel Hubert (ex-Stripe, ex-Alan). How much did Dust raise? A $40M Series B in May 2026 led by Sequoia Capital and Abstract Ventures, with Snowflake and Datadog participating. Total funding to date: over $60M. What is multiplayer AI? Shared, governed access to the same AI agents, context, and tools across an organization, so AI usage compounds across teams instead of staying locked inside private chat windows. Why does this matter? Most enterprise AI today is single-player. Dust's bet is that compounding leverage requires shared infrastructure, not better individual assistants.
