Tana raises $14m Series A to unlock the power of human-AI collaboration

Computers were supposed to be bicycles for our minds. Instead, they've become hamster wheels.

Today, we're excited to announce our $14M Series A led by Tola Capital, with follow on from Lightspeed Venture Partners, Northzone, Alliance VC, and firstminute capital, bringing our total funding to $25M. The funding will further our goal to reinvent how humans, teams, and computers work together, building AI agents and voice-powered workflows to redefine productivity for savvy professionals worldwide. Tana raises $14m Series A to unlock the power of human-AI collaboration

Why Now?

The way we work is broken.

We're drowning in meta-work—endless context switching between documents, spreadsheets, and chat apps. All too often the knowledge gets stuck. In heads, in projects, and departments. In legal pads, slide decks and memories we fail to recall when relevant. Information is fragmented across dozens of tools, making it harder than ever to find what we need when we need it.

For humans, information overload its a huge problem. For your AI coworkers its a showstopper. The information they find, the structure they see, and the knowledge they obtain is the foundation for their execution.

This is why we built Tana.

Introducing Tana: The AI-Native Workspace

Tana is a new kind of workspace that makes interacting with computers feel natural. We've spent years developing three breakthrough technologies:

A Knowledge Graph That Thinks Like You Do

Most tools force you to organize information in rigid hierarchies. Tana's knowledge graph mirrors how your brain works—making connections fluid and natural, helping you and AI discover insights you might have missed.

It's the only way to ensure AI truly functions as an extension of your own intellect and that of your company.

Proactive Information Surfacing

Instead of manually hunting for information, our live feeds brings relevant information to you in context, automatically. It's like having a brilliant assistant who always knows exactly what you need, before you need it.

Supertags: From Chaos to Structure in Seconds
Our most-loved innovation transforms unstructured information into structured data instantly. Inspired by object-oriented programming, Supertags let you build powerful workflows and AI agents that actually understand your information. It's the foundation for AI moving for copilots to coworkers.

The Response Has Been Overwhelming

During our stealth phase, over 160,000 people joined our waitlist—including employees from over 80% of Fortune 500 companies. Our community of 24,000+ Tanarians (thank you!) has helped shape a product that's already transforming how people work.

"Tana is like having a superpower at work. It is the best tool we currently have to prepare our organization for the inevitable: The increasing rate of change, the need for collaboration, and the information flow that comes with the advent of AI." Andre Foeken, CTO of Nedap

Backed by the Best

“This team's obsession with transforming productivity for our AI-native world sets them apart. They deeply understand that the future of work will be dynamic and personalized, and their voice-first product represents a bold vision for reshaping how teams collaborate globally,” Sheila Gulati, founder and managing director of Tola Capital.

We're honored to have the support of exceptional investors and founders who share our vision. Tola Capital, Lightspeed Ventures, Northzone, Alliance VC, and first minute capital. Lars Rasmussen, founder of Google Maps and Google Wave, was one of our believers, along with Olivier Pomel (Founder Datadog), Holly Branson (Virgin) and more. In our Series A, we welcomed Arash Ferdowsi (Dropbox co-founder), Siqi Chen (Founder Runway), Ali Abdaal (Productiviy Guru), and Phil Morle (Internet OG).

“I’ve loved being an early adopter of Tana and I’m a believer in the team’s incredible vision to revolutionize knowledge work for high-speed organizations. They’ve built one of the most impressive AI agents I’ve ever seen and infused it into every part of the product,” Nnamdi Iregbulem, Partner at Lightspeed Venture Partners.

What's Next

This funding will help us deliver on our mission: reinventing how humans, teams, and computers work together.

We will continue to build on our belief in voice-first workflows, Customizable AI Agents, and a new paradigm for sharing and accessing proprietary knowledge in the age of AI.

Join Us in Shaping the Future

The computer was supposed to be a bicycle for the mind. With Tana, we're finally delivering on that promise. We're building a world where technology adapts to you—not the other way around.

A special note from us founders: We're deeply grateful to our Tanarians, investors, and the incredible team that's helped us reach this milestone. This is just the beginning of our journey to transform how humans, teams, and computers work together. - Grim, Tarjei, Olav
