Description
Decart is a Tel Aviv-based AI research lab and GPU optimisation company founded September 2023 by Dean Leitersdorf (CEO, former postdoc Singapore, co-founded during Israeli military reserve duty after Oct 7) and Moshe Shalev (CPO). Named after philosopher René Descartes. Products: (1) Consumer/developer products — Oasis (real-time AI video game, released Nov 2024, 1M users in 3 days, still free), Mirage/MirageLSD (live video world transformation model — turn any video into 'zombies mode' or 'anime mode' in real time), Lucy 2 (January 2026, real-time generative video model), Sidekick (talk-to-video system); (2) B2B licensing — GPU optimisation technology licensed to cloud providers and AI labs through multimillion-dollar contracts; AWS Trainium partnership. Core advantage: 400x cost efficiency — $0.25/hour vs. $100/hour for competitors. Profitability: reached early profitability via B2B licensing. Total funding: $21M seed (Sequoia lead, Aug 2024) + $32M Series A (Benchmark lead, Nov 2024, $500M val) + $100M Series B (Sequoia + Benchmark + Aleph VC + Zeev, Aug 2025, $3.1B val) = $153M total. Famous 'Sarah' story: rejection letter from an investor printed on office wall as motivation. CEO quote: 'We're here to build a billion-user company that completely changes how people interact with tech.'

$3.1B Valuation / $100M Series B (August 2025) / $153M Total — Most Recent Funding — Not Confirmed as Homepage Hero
Score
10
Severity
High
Finding
SiliconANGLE confirms the Series B: '$100 million in new funding on a $3.1 billion valuation' (August 2025). Total funding $153M. Investors: Sequoia, Benchmark, Aleph VC, Zeev Ventures. The $3.1B valuation in August 2025 — 7 months after Oasis launched in November 2024 — is one of the fastest valuations from seed to decacorn-proximity in AI history. If this is not in the homepage hero, Decart's most powerful commercial validation is invisible.
Recommendation
Feature the funding: '$3.1B valuation · $100M Series B · Backed by Sequoia Capital and Benchmark · 7 months from product launch to unicorn valuation.' The speed — 7 months from Oasis launch (November 2024) to $3.1B valuation (August 2025) — signals that real-time AI video is not just technically impressive but commercially validated at pace.

Oasis — 'One Million Users in 3 Days' — Consumer Viral Proof Point — Most Powerful Traction Signal — Not Confirmed as Hero
Score

Severity
High
Finding
SiliconANGLE confirms: 'Oasis, launched in November 2024, is a real-time video model that reached more than a million users within three days of release.' A million users in three days places Oasis in the same viral acquisition tier as ChatGPT's early growth (100M in 60 days). For a model released by a company that was in stealth 3 months earlier, this adoption velocity is extraordinary. If this metric is not on the homepage, Decart's most powerful social proof signal is invisible.
Recommendation
Feature the Oasis adoption: '1 million users in 3 days after launch — the fastest adoption of any real-time AI video model in history. Still live. Still free. Try it now →.' The 'still live, still free' detail is important — it signals that the company did not shut down the demo after the viral moment, which many AI companies do when server costs spike. Keeping Oasis free demonstrates the cost efficiency claim ('25 cents per hour vs. competitors' $100 per hour').

The Ctech article confirms: 'While most video generation tools cost around $100 per hour, Decart did it for just 25 cents.' This 400x cost efficiency claim — running at $0.25/hour when competitors run at $100/hour — is the most technically compelling statement in Decart's story. It proves that the GPU optimisation technology (their B2B licensing product) delivers genuine infrastructure cost reduction, not just incremental improvement.

Fortune quotes CEO Dean Leitersdorf: 'We're here to build a billion-user company that completely changes how people interact with tech. It can't be that ChatGPT is the last thing a billion people will install on their phones. The next thing a billion people install needs to be a Decart product.' This billion-user consumer app vision is Decart's long-term commercial thesis — but the homepage currently positions Decart as a developer API platform.

Finding
The Decart company page confirms Lucy 2 (January 27, 2026) as the most recent news item. The Series B (August 2025) and the Mirage + MirageLSD launches were earlier milestones. The homepage should reflect the Lucy 2 launch as the current hero product.
Recommendation
Commit to monthly homepage updates featuring the latest model launch or infrastructure milestone. For an AI research lab releasing new models every 3-6 months, the homepage should be the primary source of product news, not a static marketing page. Each model launch (Lucy, Lucy 2, Mirage, MirageLSD, Oasis) should have a homepage feature for at least 30 days after launch, then move to a 'Products' page with individual model documentation and demos.
