Maniv Mobility is helping to expedite the new age of advanced transportation technology, including safety, business model innovation, and vehicle autonomy ("driverless cars"). They believe that in the 21st century, the public should not have to endure the daily tragedy of automotive fatalities, the frustration and productivity loss oftraffic congestion, and the polluted air and public space that slow-moving and parked cars bring to their urban centers. In the last 20 years technology has made information and communication ubiquitous and close to free. In the next 20 it will do the same for mobility. They work with start-up companies, entrepreneurs, financiers and others to overcome the hurdles that will herald a grand new age.

Investment-fund research reviewed 2026-10-06. Publicly identified funds, dates, amounts and fundraising status are below. Undisclosed commitments remain unknown; this is not a complete register of private SPVs or parallel entities.
Fund sizes, dates and status
| Vehicle/metric | Amount and status | Dated support and interpretation |
| --- | --- | --- |
| First mobility fund | **More than USD 40 million**, raised/closed | Firm release **2017-07-26** states above USD 40 million and twice target. Use this primary-source precision; USD 42 million appears in contemporary reporting and may reflect a different closing point. [Firm release](https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/maniv-mobility-announces-close-of-first-mobility-only-fund-in-israel-636719593.html ). |
| Second fund | **USD 100 million, closed** | **2019-07-09** announcement reported by Globes; 12 corporate LPs and mobility strategy. [Globes](https://en.globes.co.il/en/article-smart-car-vc-fund-maniv-mobility-closes-100m-fund-1001292893 ). |
| Maniv III / third fund | **USD 140 million, closed**, not a target | Firm-issued Business Wire release **2024-04-04**, available through STT distribution. [Announcement](https://www.sttinfo.fi/tiedote/70132821/maniv-announces-third-early-stage-venture-fund-of-140m-to-accelerate-the-decarbonization-and-digitization-of-global-transportation?publisherId=58763726 ). |
| Firm AUM at third-fund announcement | **Nearly USD 320 million** | Same **2024-04-04** announcement; historical total AUM, not the size of Fund III and not independently established as current 2026 AUM. |
[Maniv's own LinkedIn announcement](https://www.linkedin.com/posts/maniv_vc-firm-maniv-is-growing-in-every-direction-activity-7181334925978071040-0Eiw ) also confirms the third-fund close, though its public date is relative. A search for newer funds, including a fourth fund, and inspection of the current firm site did not establish a newer close. Fund III is **latest verified**, not an assertion that no later fund exists. Current dry powder, deployable capital, management fees and investment budget were not disclosed in the sources inspected.

Imported completed research. Baseline Adex/Signal statements describe prior state, not independent verification. Retain cited attribution, date, currency and classification caveats.
| **Harbinger** — proprietary medium-duty EV chassis and integrated vehicle engineering | Harbinger release names continuing Maniv Mobility investment in **USD 100 million Series B** on **2025-01-14**. Its subsequent **USD 160 million Series C** announcement also names Maniv among returning investors. | [Harbinger-issued Series B release, **2025-01-14**](https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/electric-vehicle-company-harbinger-raises-100-million-in-series-b-funding-co-led-by-capricorns-technology-impact-fund-and-leitmotif-302350035.html ); [official Series C announcement, **2025-11-13**](https://harbingermotors.com/newsroom/harbinger-raises-160-million-series-c-co-led-by-fedex/ ). |
| **River** — engineered electric scooters developed and manufactured in Bengaluru; hardware/EV exposure, with deep-tech differentiation less clearly demonstrated than Hailo or Celadyne | River's own release confirms returning Maniv Mobility participation in **USD 40 million Series B**, Yamaha-led.

Additional official portfolio names include **Anaphite, Arbe, Autotalks, Cognata, Intuition Robotics, Nauto and Nexar**. These are firm-attributed portfolio leads, not round-level verification in this report. Mobility marketplaces, ride-hail operations and generic fleet software are not automatically classified as deep tech. [Official portfolio, undated, accessed 2026-10-06](https://www.maniv.com/portfolio ).
## Neurotech and adjacent evidence
**No verified neurotech investment found in the sources checked.** Checked the saved record, Signal firm and managing-partner profiles, official portfolio and current strategy, plus targeted searches for Maniv with brain, EEG, neurotech/neurotechnology and Cyberkinetics. No direct brain-computer interface, neural sensing, neurostimulation or brain-imaging investment was established. This is a bounded finding, not proof that the firm has never invested in neurotech.
Hailo's neural-network processors are AI compute, not neural interfaces. Intuition Robotics is an official portfolio company, but a social/companion robot or cognitive engagement product does not alone establish neurotechnology. **Clair Labs** is an adjacent health-sensing investment: reporting names Maniv Mobility in a Seed financing described as USD 9 million on **2021-06-18**, for contactless patient monitoring. This is physiological monitoring, not verified brain-signal measurement. [Crunchbase News](https://news.crunchbase.com/health-wellness-biotech/clair-labs-targets-9m-seed-on-contactless-patient-monitoring/ ). Startup Nation Central instead shows three financings totalling USD 9 million, including **USD 4 million June 2021**, and says it ceased operations June 2023; the round-versus-total inconsistency remains unresolved. [SNC company profile, undated](https://finder.startupnationcentral.org/company_page/clair-labs?section=business ). Do not import an unqualified USD 9 million single-round figure.
Older **Maniv Investments / Maniv BioVentures** records require separate legal-entity and vehicle attribution. The 2017 Maniv Mobility release describes an affiliate relationship to Maniv Investments; this does not license assigning predecessor biomedical investments to the mobility funds.
## Conflicts, gaps and concrete later Adex review notes
1. **Fund field:** replace or contextualize stale Signal USD 100 million with dated USD 140 million Fund III; store nearly USD 320 million separately as April 2024 AUM. Check sizes remain profile-level and unverified.
2. **River entity conflation:** snapshot uses `RiverFinancial` for the 2024-02-08 USD 40 million deal. The issuer proves this is Bengaluru EV maker River. Reconcile its 2023 rows separately and do not automatically transfer the 2020 row, which predates River's stated March 2021 inception.
3. **Owl identity and financing:** snapshot names `OwlLabs` for an USD 18 million 2018 financing. [Global Venturing, **2018-02-05**](https://globalventuring.com/blog/2018/02/05/owl-records-18m-series-a/ ) identifies the investee as automotive camera maker **Owl / Owl Cameras**, naming Maniv. This warrants entity review; the exact financing breakdown still needs primary verification.
4. **Celadyne duplication:** snapshot has `Celadyne` and `CeladyneTechnologies`, both USD 4.5 million Seed with unknown dates. Official company sources support the same February 2024 financing. Review for duplicate company/round records; February 15 is a dated company announcement, not necessarily legal closing date.
5. **Hailo amount:** snapshot USD 12 million at 2018-06-05 conflicts with issuer's USD 12.5 million. Preserve the more precise verified amount and source.
6. **Harbinger Series A:** snapshot records USD 60 million September 2023. January 2025 issuer release refers retrospectively to USD 73 million Series A. Likely an expansion or later total, but not resolved; do not silently replace the original announced tranche. Series B/C figures above are verified. The Series C webpage is published November 13, 2025 but carries a November 12 dateline in its body; preserve this one-day publication/announcement distinction.
7. **First fund precision:** primary source says above USD 40 million; reports differ. No uniform exact final amount established in this research.
8. **Portfolio parsing:** the text extractor repeats “Acquired” beneath many active-company entries. Do not treat those repeated interface labels as exit evidence without explicit acquisition wording and an announcement.
9. **Missing data:** no verified current 2026 AUM, later fund close, exact present check policy, vehicle ownership percentages or neurotech-specific mandate. Verified examples are selective and do not exhaust all investment history. Role records and partner histories were not fully audited.
All changes above are suggestions for later review. No MCP Patch, database edits, commits, or manifest changes were performed. SHOW MORE

## Summary and identity
Maniv, historically branded Maniv Mobility, is an early-stage investor in transportation, energy and the physical economy, based in Tel Aviv and New York. Its strongest verified deep-tech evidence concerns semiconductors, industrial additive manufacturing, hydrogen membranes and electric vehicle engineering. Its current official homepage describes manufacturing/materials, movement, energy, silicon and compute as investment themes. The latest fund close verified here is **USD 140 million Fund III**, announced April 2024; the contemporary firm announcement put AUM at **nearly USD 320 million**, a separate metric. No verified neurotech investment found in the sources checked. [Official homepage, undated](https://www.maniv.com/ ); [firm-issued Fund III announcement, 2024-04-04](https://www.sttinfo.fi/tiedote/70132821/maniv-announces-third-early-stage-venture-fund-of-140m-to-accelerate-the-decarbonization-and-digitization-of-global-transportation?publisherId=58763726 ).
## Adex and NFX Signal starting evidence
The exact-ID snapshot `data/research/_sources/Maniv.adex.json` was retrieved 2026-10-06 at 19:29:37 UTC using read-only MCP Search. It contains one Maniv InvestmentFirm record, a transportation/autonomy-focused description, Tel Aviv location, 14 role records, and 32 investment participations. Its check minimum, maximum and sweet spot are null. Sources include the official site, Signal and Goldi; individual investments mix reporting-backed firm claims with aggregator data and partner-profile metadata. This is starting evidence, not independent verification.
The baseline lists Harbinger, Engrate, River Financial, Fresh Bus, Vammo, Seurat, Kolors, Solo AVT, Revel, Mundimoto, Zoomo/Bolt Bikes, Autofleet, Brodmann17, Cognata, Hailo, Owl Labs, Guardian Optical Technologies, Intuition Robotics, Celadyne, Neologic, C2A and Celadyne Technologies. Material identity and duplicate issues are described below.
[Signal firm profile](https://signal.nfx.com/firms/maniv-mobility ) was directly readable in a short public rendering. It identifies Maniv Mobility, gives New York location and repeats the older advanced-transportation description. [Michael Granoff's Signal profile](https://signal.nfx.com/investors/michael-granoff ) was also directly read: it identifies his managing-partner role; shows USD 1–5 million investment range, USD 3 million sweet spot, and a USD 100 million “current fund” field; and places him in Seed/Series A transportation, energy and deep-tech rankings. Its public investment list requires sign-in and its investment counts differ across sections. These are undated partner-profile claims. The USD 100 million fund field is stale relative to Fund III; check-size figures are unverified leads, not a firm-wide current policy. Personal board seats or investments are not automatically attributed to this firm. Both pages accessed 2026-10-06.
## Fund sizes, dates and status
| Vehicle/metric | Amount and status | Dated support and interpretation |
| --- | --- | --- |
| First mobility fund | **More than USD 40 million**, raised/closed | Firm release **2017-07-26** states above USD 40 million and twice target. Use this primary-source precision; USD 42 million appears in contemporary reporting and may reflect a different closing point. [Firm release](https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/maniv-mobility-announces-close-of-first-mobility-only-fund-in-israel-636719593.html ). |
| Second fund | **USD 100 million, closed** | **2019-07-09** announcement reported by Globes; 12 corporate LPs and mobility strategy. [Globes](https://en.globes.co.il/en/article-smart-car-vc-fund-maniv-mobility-closes-100m-fund-1001292893 ). |
| Maniv III / third fund | **USD 140 million, closed**, not a target | Firm-issued Business Wire release **2024-04-04**, available through STT distribution. [Announcement](https://www.sttinfo.fi/tiedote/70132821/maniv-announces-third-early-stage-venture-fund-of-140m-to-accelerate-the-decarbonization-and-digitization-of-global-transportation?publisherId=58763726 ). |
| Firm AUM at third-fund announcement | **Nearly USD 320 million** | Same **2024-04-04** announcement; historical total AUM, not the size of Fund III and not independently established as current 2026 AUM. |
[Maniv's own LinkedIn announcement](https://www.linkedin.com/posts/maniv_vc-firm-maniv-is-growing-in-every-direction-activity-7181334925978071040-0Eiw ) also confirms the third-fund close, though its public date is relative. A search for newer funds, including a fourth fund, and inspection of the current firm site did not establish a newer close. Fund III is **latest verified**, not an assertion that no later fund exists. Current dry powder, deployable capital, management fees and investment budget were not disclosed in the sources inspected.
## Investment stages
The dated Fund III release explicitly supports **Seed and Series A** entry strategy. The 2017 primary release also specified primarily Seed and Series A. These establish mandate more reliably than Signal rankings. Historical participation in Seurat Series C and Harbinger Series B/C demonstrates later-stage exposure/follow-on activity; it does not establish a general late-stage entry mandate. The portfolio's current maturity labels are company status, not necessarily Maniv's entry stages. [Fund III release, 2024-04-04](https://www.sttinfo.fi/tiedote/70132821/maniv-announces-third-early-stage-venture-fund-of-140m-to-accelerate-the-decarbonization-and-digitization-of-global-transportation?publisherId=58763726 ); [first fund release, 2017-07-26](https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/maniv-mobility-announces-close-of-first-mobility-only-fund-in-israel-636719593.html ); [official portfolio, undated](https://www.maniv.com/portfolio ).
## Named previous deep-tech investments
Round amounts below are **whole company rounds**, never assumed Maniv check sizes. Deep-tech classification is this researcher's technology-based assessment, not a claim that every portfolio company qualifies.
| Company and technology | Firm attribution and transaction | Source and date |
