Profile source review: 2026-11-04. Current AI product, canonical identity, active operations and NYC presence. Funding not rechecked unless a linked funding correction is recorded. Official May 7, 2025 post announces the New York office, with later company post confirming it among operating offices. The latest company funding announcement says it is raising $950M and does not give a series letter; Growth is used rather than a third-party Series E label. Localized official pages carry English article text and exact dates.

Manhattan · reported office

11 East 26th Street, New York, NY. Current occupancy not confirmed. Reported new lease; completed move-in was not verified. Sierra's primary May 2025 company announcement confirms a New York office and hiring but gives no street. Do not assume this lease means its earlier SoHo office has closed, or that employees already occupy the new space. No neighborhood assigned from Midtown South submarket terminology.
