Reading the filings
- Almost a quarter of the capital is non-dilutive.$2,499,284 of grants against $8.5 million of announced equity is $10,999,284 in total, of which the grants are 22.7 percent. Against the aggregators’ $9 million figure, 21.7 percent. Roughly one dollar in five came from NHGRI, not a cap table.
- The grant line grows while the equity line is flat.NHGRI obligations ran $291,643 in FY2024, $1,417,015 in FY2025 across two awards, and $790,626 in FY2026: a 4.9 times step up into FY2025, against zero announced equity since January 2023.
- The round closed about nine months before it was announced.GenomeWeb reported in October 2022 that the $8.5 million was raised in April 2022; the release dated January 10, 2023 describes the closing. The amounts agree, only the timing differs.
- No Form D means no investor count.A Form D would disclose amount offered, amount sold and investor count, from which an average check follows. Nest filed none, so the only public breakdown of the $8.5 million is the eleven named participants. Dividing evenly gives about $773,000 each, but the release names a lead, so that is an illustration, not a finding.
- Three years and eight months without a new round.January 2023 to September 22, 2026. Headcount over that window went from 14 on the Y Combinator listing to 18 as of August 31, 2026 per Tracxn. Grant money is covering development a Series A would normally fund.
- Nothing in the record suggests the company has stopped.Y Combinator lists the status as active with a role open in September 2026, the NHGRI award runs to August 2027, the trial record was updated in July 2026, and a paper with three employee authors appeared in June 2026.

What to watch
- A first Form D. A round under Regulation D produces one within 15 days of first sale.
- Whether R41HG014454 converts to a Phase II award after September 2027.
- A named health system customer, promised since January 2023.
- The NCT06654466 readout, estimated March 2027, and whether it reports screening adherence rather than survey measures alone.
- Whether the Florida Sunshine Genetics work presented in September 2026 becomes a disclosed contract.
