US startups raised $19.06 billion across 630 deals in March 2026, a figure that reflects market normalization following the anomalous mega-rounds that defined early 2026. The market declined 64.4% year-over-year from March 2025's $53.5B, but this decline is largely due to the absence of mega-rounds like OpenAI's $40B raise.
