IDG Capital, LinkX Capital and XtalPi co-lead Apex Intelligence angel round

Apex Intelligence named the angel-round syndicate within a nearly $50M combined angel and angel-plus financing announcement.

Decent Capital, SEE Fund, Monad Ventures and Winsoul Capital joined the angel financing. The company disclosed the two financings together, so the nearly $50 million total cannot be assigned to this angel round alone.

Founded in June 2026 by Yongchao Chen, Apex is directing the combined funding toward model training, compute capacity, research-trajectory data infrastructure and recruitment. Its later angel-plus financing has a separate syndicate, recorded as a separate event in the funding history.
