Crunchbase dates the funding round to July 10, 2025, and does not show the amount. F6S likewise lists SecRed Knowledge Inc as his one investment.

His only listed investment is NouchiX, which Crunchbase tags under Agentic AI, Artificial Intelligence, Cyber Security and Software. It is a founder's investment in his own company. It is not evidence of an outside AI investing program.
He has published no investment thesis, stage preference, geography or check size. His own company works in AI-driven cybersecurity, OT security and compliance automation.
