The traditional annual survey of Forbesin partnership with Truebridge Capital Partners, highlighted for the 11th time startups based in the United States that may exceed the market value of $ 1 billion.
The selection is based on companies already invested by capital venture funds, but have not yet reached the unicorn level.
The history of the list shows a good hit rate: Of the 250 companies already indicated, 56% became unicorns – including Doordesh, Figma and Anduril – 42 were acquired and only 2% closed the doors.

In the 2025 edition, Artificial Intelligence is protagonist: 20 of the 25 selected have AI -based products or services, with applications ranging from chatbots to hospitals to design platforms, sales automation and military defense.
The predominance of AI reinforces the tendency of capital concentration and high growth expectations in the sector, even with the competition of giants such as OpenAi and Google.
Some of the selected are already close to crossing the billion brand – case of Decart, which reached market value of $ 3.1 billion shortly after the closing of the list.
