OpenAI in talks to buy Windsurf for about $3 billion – Bloomberg

OpenAI is in discussions to buy artificial intelligence-assisted coding tool Windsurf for about $3 billion, Bloomberg News reported on Wednesday citing a person familiar with the matter.

The terms of the deal have not yet been finalized and it could change or fall apart, the report said.

OpenAI declined to comment, while Windsurf, formerly known as Codeium, did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for comment.

Windsurf was in talks with investors such as Kleiner Perkins and General Catalyst to raise funding at a $3 billion valuation, the report added.

It closed a $150 million funding round led by General Catalyst last year, valuing it at $1.25 billion.
