ComfyUI raised a $30 million funding round at a $500 million valuation, according to TechCrunch. The round was led by Craft Ventures, with participation from Pace Capital, Chemistry, and TruArrow. The startup began as an open-source project in 2023, shortly after the introduction of diffusion models.
At that time, models like Midjourney and OpenAI’s DALL-E frequently added extra fingers to hands. The project founders developed a modular framework for granular control over every step of the generation process. In late 2024, ComfyUI raised $19 million in Series A financing.
That round included investors Chemistry Ventures, Cursor Capital, and Guillermo Rauch, the founder of Vercel. ComfyUI has over 4 million users.
The tool is used by creative professionals for visual effects, animation, advertising, and industrial design. Weavy was acquired by Figma last year.
