Tanka, the AI-native operating platform tailored for startup founders, has unveiled its Fundraising Agent, a specialized AI tool engineered to streamline capital raising—the top hurdle for early-stage companies. This launch initiates Tanka's agent ecosystem, with forthcoming agents for go-to-market, hiring, and product management available via the upcoming Agent Store, all powered by the platform's innovative long-term memory capabilities.
Raising capital remains the foremost barrier for entrepreneurs, with nearly one in four U.S. founders identifying access to funding as the key growth constraint in Mercury's 2025 survey. In Europe, the challenge is even more pronounced, as nearly six in ten founders ranked fundraising as their top issue in Slush's 2025 Startup Struggle Survey. Tanka's Fundraising Agent reimagines this process by transforming scattered efforts into a cohesive, accelerated workflow, allowing founders to focus on strategy rather than administrative drudgery.
At the core of the Fundraising Agent is Tanka's EverMemOS, which maintains unlimited, evolving memory by analyzing conversations, decisions, and documents from integrated tools such as Slack, Gmail, and Notion. This creates a dynamic knowledge base that recalls historical context, enabling precise assistance in drafting business plans, crafting investor decks, reviewing pitch materials, and conducting AI-simulated mock interviews with realistic investor personas.
Founders can now request targeted introductions to nearly 100 premier venture capital firms through Tanka's collaboration with GRAB Ventures, bridging the gap between preparation and execution. These features are immediately accessible, with ongoing enhancements to the agent ecosystem ensuring adaptability to founders' unique journeys. "Fundraising is the single hardest and most time-consuming job for founders, especially today," said Kisson Lin, CEO of Tanka. "With the Fundraising Agent, we're not just automating tasks, we're giving founders the co-founder they've always wanted—one that never forgets, never sleeps, and is laser-focused on helping them succeed."
Tanka transcends traditional productivity tools by embedding agentic AI across chat, output generation, and specialized functions, all unified by memory-native intelligence. Combining retrieval-augmented generation, knowledge graphs, and advanced language models, EverMemOS overcomes the limitations of short context windows, providing persistent recall over months or years. This enables seamless onboarding for new hires, rapid creation of landing pages or presentations, and iterative project planning with deep contextual awareness—all while prioritizing data encryption and privacy, ensuring no user information is used for training or shared externally.
Tanka's Fundraising Agent launch heralds a new era for startup operations, where AI acts as an enduring partner in overcoming capital challenges. As the agent ecosystem expands, Tanka equips founders with tailored, intelligent support to navigate growth in an AI-accelerated landscape, fostering efficiency and innovation without compromising control over proprietary knowledge.
Tanka is the world's first agent platform with AI long-term memory, designed for startup founders and fast-moving teams. Inspired by decades of neuroscience research, Tanka learns from your business context, past conversations, and connected apps to deliver fast, precise, and context-rich AI assistance—right where you work.
