## Slack-Integrated AI Product Aiming to be Management Execution Infrastructure
Agentum Inc. (Tokyo Office: Shibuya-ku, Tokyo; CEO: Hayato Tsutsui) has opened pre-orders for 'Valchain for Slack,' an AI chief of staff specialized in goal achievement.
Valchain is an AI agent that supports organizational goals. It translates goals into specific points for different roles and levels, breaks down meeting decisions into minimal tasks, and detects execution stalls to carry over into subsequent meetings. More than just a transcription AI or task management tool, it is a 'management execution infrastructure' that connects goals, meetings, decisions, execution, observation, and memory.
Founded in April 2026, Agentum's mission is to realize 'Agentic Management (autonomous management).' They aim for a management model where humans set the vision and culture, while AI supports decision-making, execution, and memorization, allowing organizations to grow autonomously.
### Background of Founding
Agentum was established to answer the question: 'Can labor and growth be decoupled?'
While turnover and recruitment difficulties are accelerating, the workload in the field continues to increase due to the need for AI implementation, knowledge updates, and market changes. We cannot increase the number of people, yet the things that must be managed are increasing. This contradiction burdens executives, middle management, and front-line employees alike. Agentum views this structure as 'the pain of organizational management' and aims to prove a 'growth model for the era of population decline' where a shrinking population does not mean a shrinking economy.
### About Valchain
Valchain is a Slack-integrated AI agent equipped with functions specialized for goal achievement. It addresses cases where goals and meetings exist but progress is stalled, treating the issue as a lack of conditions rather than a lack of human ability.
By resolving ambiguous communication hidden in meetings, Valchain helps teams avoid friction and recognition gaps, improving daily operational accuracy.
### Realizing 'Sanpo-Yoshi' for the AI Era
Agentum aims for a 'win-win-win' (Sanpo-Yoshi) organizational state:
- **Executives:** Can grasp progress and bottlenecks, entrusting management with confidence.
- **Middle Management:** Can return to their original role of supporting the team instead of being buried in progress tracking.
- **Front-line Employees:** Can move forward without hesitation because work meaning, completion conditions, and initial steps are clear.
### Test Installations Underway at Listed Companies
Valchain is already being tested at several listed companies. Agentum plans to expand the closed beta for Slack users, focusing on goal achievement support for managers and teams.
Furthermore, the organization diagnosis service 'Valsoku,' which visualizes the current and future state of an organization, is scheduled for release next month.
### CEO Comment
Hayato Tsutsui, CEO of Agentum Inc., states:
'We established Agentum to solve the question: "Can labor and growth be decoupled?" In a depopulating society, we must find ways to grow organizations without simply adding more people. We want to reduce the pain of management and liberate people from division, creating organizations that grow autonomously. This is the social vision of Agentum.'
### YouTube Channel Started
Agentum has also launched a YouTube channel hosted by CEO Hayato Tsutsui. It features discussions on autonomous management, management in the AI era, and organizational goal achievement.
