Introducing Valchain: Your AI Assistant for Achieving Goals

Agentum, a pioneering company based in Tokyo, has officially launched pre-registration for its AI assistant, Valchain for Slack, tailored specifically to enhance goal achievement for organizations. With the ambition to become an essential infrastructure for management execution, Valchain is designed to seamlessly integrate into your Slack workspace, transforming the way teams approach objectives, decisions, and tasks.

What Sets Valchain Apart?

Valchain is not merely a note-taking application or a task management tool; it is an AI agent that comprehensively links the processes of setting goals, making decisions during meetings, executing actions, and tracking outcomes. By translating organizational objectives into specific points relevant to different roles, Valchain allows teams to deconstruct meeting decisions into actionable tasks, ensuring that nothing falls through the cracks between meetings.

Founded in April 2026, Agentum's mission is to realize Autonomous Management, where human-guided vision aligns with AI-supported decision-making and execution, fostering self-sustaining organizational growth. By addressing the challenges posed by a shrinking workforce, Agentum seeks to demonstrate a growth model that doesn’t rely solely on increasing headcount but emphasizes effective management practices and AI integration.

The Driving Force Behind Agentum

Agentum was established with a critical question in mind: “Can we separate labor from growth?” In a landscape marked by increasing employee turnover and recruitment challenges, companies are inundated with a myriad of tasks - from managing day-to-day operations to adapting to AI-driven changes in the market. This paradox presents a significant burden across all levels of management.

With a vision to prove a sustainable growth model in an era of population decline, Agentum aims to alleviate the “management suffering”, emphasizing that the reduction in labor force need not equate to a shrinking economy.

Features of Valchain: Achieving Goals Effortlessly

In a typical organizational setting, meetings often become laden with ambiguous communications, leading to confusion around objectives. Valchain addresses this problem by clarifying communication, significantly reducing friction among team members. The AI assistant enhances daily work accuracy and supports employees in understanding the significance, completion criteria, and initiation of their tasks.

Realizing the Triple Benefit in the AI Age

Agentum envisions a new standard of operation where:

• - Executives gain clear insights into progress and potential bottlenecks, enabling them to confidently delegate responsibilities to managers.
• - Middle management can shift focus from merely tracking progress to effectively supporting their teams.
• - Frontline employees benefit from clear visibility into their work tasks, making it easier to navigate their responsibilities without confusion.

This model, driven by AI, represents a transformative approach to organizational management, aiming to implement these principles as societal standards in the business landscape.

Valchain in Action: Pilot Programs Underway

Currently, Valchain is being tested across multiple publicly listed companies. The ongoing pilot programs serve to refine its functionalities and gather feedback, positioning Valchain as an indispensable AI assistant for achievement-oriented organizations leveraging Slack. Additionally, Agentum will soon launch its organizational diagnosis service, Valsoku, set to further enhance visibility into organizational dynamics.

Leadership Insights

Tsutsui Hayato, CEO of Agentum, expresses his vision:

“We founded Agentum to address the question of whether labor and growth can be separated. In an era of demographic challenges, organizations must explore alternative paths to sustain growth beyond merely increasing personnel. Our goal is to reduce management burdens and empower organizations to achieve greater outcomes. We are grateful to everyone who has contributed to the launch of Valchain’s closed beta and eagerly await applications from those using Slack.”

YouTube Channel Launch

In conjunction with the Valchain announcement, Agentum has launched a YouTube channel featuring Tsutsui, where he discusses topics like autonomous management, challenges in the AI era, and organizational goal achievement. Tune in for insights and thought leadership from Agentum.
