  1. Instinct, a 14-person agent startup with no app, raises $1B at ~$10B valuation

    On Sept. 28, personal-agent startup Instinct announced a $1B Series C co-led by Sequoia, Benchmark and Coatue, lifting its valuation from $2.5B to roughly $10B in about a month. The company has 14 employees, no revenue and no phone app: users reach the agent only by text, phone and email, and it earns commissions on bookings such as hotels, flight changes and price comparisons. The founder says about 40% of users link a credit card after roughly three weeks and about 80% of those who link a sensitive asset stay, though none of the figures are independently audited.
