Salesforce Ventures invests in Sakana AI

We are thrilled to announce investment from Salesforce! 🤝

Salesforce Ventures values our world-class research capabilities and our deep understanding of Japanese enterprise needs—bridging the gap between cutting-edge AI and implementation. Our proven track record in mission-critical domains, such as finance and defense, was a key driver for this collaboration. We will evaluate potential integration of Sakana AI’s enterprise technology into Salesforce’s global platform offerings.



“Salesforce Ventures has been a dedicated investor in Japan’s tech ecosystem since 2011, and Sakana AI represents the next frontier of innovation. Their rare blend of world-class research and deep enterprise execution makes them a preeminent force in defining Japan’s AI future. We look forward to supporting Sakana’s journey as they scale alongside Agentforce, delivering a new era of autonomous productivity to Japanese industries.”
