This release marks the debut of Tanka&#8217;s agent strategy, with additional agents for GTM, hiring, and product management on the roadmap, all accessible through the upcoming Agent Store.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Addressing the Biggest Startup Challenge: Fundraising<\/b><\/p>\n<p>According to Mercury&#8217;s 2025 <a href=\"https:\/\/mercury.com\/blog\/startup-economics-report-2025\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">U.S. survey<\/a>,&nbsp;nearly one in four entrepreneurs cite access to funding as the single biggest factor limiting their growth.

Unlike generic AI tools, Tanka&#8217;s agent leverages the platform&#8217;s core innovation: unlimited, long-term memory powered by EverMemOS. By analyzing chat threads, decisions, and documents across tools like Slack, Gmail, and Notion, Tanka builds a living knowledge base that evolves with each founder&#8217;s journey.<\/p>\n<p>With this context, founders can draft and refine business plans, create investor decks, review pitch materials, practice with AI-driven mock investor interviews, and request introductions to nearly 100 top-tier venture capital firms through Tanka&#8217;s partnership with GRAB Ventures. These features are available today, with more on the way as Tanka&#8217;s agent ecosystem continues to grow rapidly.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Fundraising is the single hardest and most time-consuming job for founders, especially today,&#8221; said <b><span class=\"xn-person\">Kisson Lin<\/span>, CEO of Tanka.<\/b> &#8220;With the Fundraising Agent, we&#8217;re not just automating tasks, we&#8217;re giving founders the co-founder they&#8217;ve always wanted\u2014one that never forgets, never sleeps, and is laser-focused on helping them succeed.&#8221;<\/p>\n<div class=\"PRN_ImbeddedAssetReference\" id=\"DivAssetPlaceHolder1029\" readability=\"9\">\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/mma.prnasia.com\/media2\/2773162\/Tanka_AI_workspace_showing_projects_memory_powered_chat_connected_tools__Credit.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/mma.prnasia.com\/media2\/2773162\/Tanka_AI_workspace_showing_projects_memory_powered_chat_connected_tools__Credit.jpg?p=medium600\" title=\"Tanka AI workspace showing projects, memory-powered chat, and connected tools.
