A huge congratulations to Jyoti and the entire Harness team on announcing their $240M Series E at a $5.5B valuation. This is an extraordinary milestone — and a clear signal that “AI for everything after code” is quickly becoming one of the most important layers in modern software engineering.
We’ve believed in this vision from the beginning. Unusual has been proud to partner with Jyoti across multiple chapters: as early investors in Harness, as investors in Traceable (now acquired by Harness), and as partners in building Unusual itself.
As a Co-founder of Unusual, Jyoti actually helped design our Founder Services model based directly on his own experiences scaling AppDynamics, Harness, and Traceable — shaping how we support founders with real, tactical help from day one. His fingerprints are all over the DNA of Unusual.
This is a big milestone in Harness and software delivery. The rapid growth of AI-generated code has shifted the bottleneck from writing software to delivering it — safely, reliably, and at enterprise scale. Harness is solving that problem better than anyone, and this round validates the importance of that mission.

We couldn’t be more excited for the company’s journey ahead!
