Moonshot AI is accelerating its growth ambitions with over $700 million in commitments from Alibaba, Tencent, and other investors toward a $10 billion valuation for its Kimi chatbot business.
Moonshot AI, creator of the Kimi chatbot, is seeking a $10 billion valuation through an expanded funding round that began in late January 2025. The round has already secured more than $700 million from existing investors, including Alibaba and Tencent. This follows a $500 million raise last month at a $4.3 billion valuation, highlighting rapid scaling and strong investor support from major technology firms.
