Data Quality
Data: LowDepict is a high-risk equity bet for a job candidate: the company has solid revenue traction ($9.3M ARR, 75% gross margins) and a defensible fashion-AI niche, but its last funding round was over four years ago with no publicly announced follow-on, leaving current valuation, growth rate, and runway entirely opaque.

Depict accelerates to $20–25M ARR by 2028, raises a Series B at $160–200M post-money, and common equity triples in paper value after clearing the $19.9M preference stack. Tiger Global's brand helps attract a tier-1 Series B lead and positions the company for a strategic acquisition at a 10–12x ARR multiple by a larger e-commerce platform.
Depict grows modestly to $13–16M ARR, raises a flat-to-modest-up Series B at $80–100M post-money, and common equity appreciates ~35% after accounting for the $19.9M preference stack. The company remains a viable niche player in fashion e-commerce AI but struggles to expand beyond its core verticals.
Growth stalls with competition from Bloomreach and potential Shopify native features; Depict cannot raise at acceptable terms 4+ years post-Series A, runs down its runway, and exits in a distressed acquisition around $20–30M. With $19.9M in liquidation preferences, common shareholders recover less than 20 cents on the dollar.
Preference Stack Risk
highFunding Intensity
28%$19.9M in total preferred liquidation preferences against an estimated ~$65–75M current valuation (inferred from Series A dynamics) means preferred consumes roughly 27–31% of any exit before common shareholders participate.
Dilution Risk
highAs a Series A company needing at least one to two additional rounds (Series B, likely C) before exit, each round will add an estimated 15–25% dilution to the common share pool.
Secondary Liquidity
noneAt 32 employees and with no disclosed secondary transactions, there is effectively no secondary market liquidity available to employees within a 2-year horizon.
