The parent company Codeium last raised a Series C of $150M at a valuation of $1.25B: https://techcrunch.com/2024/08/29/github-copilot-competitor-...

That was in August 2024, before the vibe-coding meme hype, so $3B makes sense.

TechCrunch has a more recent article (https://techcrunch.com/2025/02/19/ai-coding-startup-codeium-...) that has the company valued at $2.85 billion but this was due to them being in talks to raise even more funding this financial quarter.
