Decart went through three buyers at three prices in ten weeks: a $6B acquisition offer in August, a $300M funding round in October, and Amazon now reportedly talking $7B.
Notably, Decart doesn't build a frontier model — it builds the layer underneath everyone else's, making it strategically valuable infrastructure rather than a model lab.
