General Intuition raises $220M at $6.2B valuation for world models

Its data edge comes from a free gameplay-clip app whose users generate action data no robotics lab can buy.

• General Intuition raised $220 million led by Valor Equity Partners at a $6.2 billion valuation, nearly tripling its worth from a $2.3 billion round in June 2026.
• The startup spun out of Medal, a gameplay-clip capture app with over 17 million monthly players, and trains its AI on that footage paired with controller inputs.
• Its MIRA model uses latent diffusion to render physics-consistent video that can run indefinitely without diverging, at 20 frames per second on a single Nvidia B200 GPU.
• Medal is on track to generate 3 billion uploaded gameplay clips a year, giving General Intuition an action-labeled dataset it says rivals lack.
• The round follows a $133.7 million seed in October 2025 and a $320 million raise in mid-2026, bringing disclosed funding to roughly $674 million in under a year.
• The valuation bets that gameplay footage mapping human vision to controller actions can shortcut training for robots and self-driving systems, a thesis still unproven at commercial scale.
