Source Check Verdicts
Last checked: 4/12/2026
All key fields are confirmed by the source text: (1) name 'Series A' is explicitly stated; (2) raised amount of $415 million matches the source's conversion of €385 million; (3) valuation of $2 billion (the source says 'roughly $2 billion') is confirmed; (4) date of 2023-12-11 is consistent with the article's context describing the round as 'officially closed' with the platform opening 'today'. The slight approximation in the valuation ('roughly $2 billion' vs exact $2.1 billion in the record) is within acceptable tolerance for funding announcements, though the record shows $2.1B which is slightly higher than the 'roughly $2 billion' stated. This is a minor discrepancy but the source confirms the ballpark figure.
