Space, a San Francisco company incorporated as Space Computer, Inc., raised a $2.4 million pre-seed round led by a16z Speedrun with participation from Golden Ventures, Northside Ventures and around a dozen angels. Founded by Matthew Ao, Arihant Bapna and Jason Zhao, the company builds a distributed filesystem that appears as an ordinary drive and streams only the byte ranges an application or agent requests, so teams can work across terabytes of live data without downloads, duplicated copies or local disk consumption. It is in private beta with roughly 100 users and teams.
