Stockholm-based Tzafon today announced the final close of its €8.3 million pre-Seed funding round, to scale its computational capabilities, advance its autonomous AI agent technology, and launch “Lightcone,” an agent that can act on your behalf across any app or platform.
The extension was led by HV Capital, joining investors such as Streamlined VC, Kakao VC, Oliver Jung, and angels from OpenAI and xAI. The total round, according to the company, takes the top spot as Sweden’s largest pre-Seed financing.
“Our vision at Tzafon is to build agents from the ground up that are capable of collaborating across any digital, and in the future physical environment,” said Noah Löfquist, CEO and Co-founder of Tzafon. “This round enables us to significantly expand our compute resources to train smarter, better, and more agentic AI models. And launch Lightcone, which will reduce the friction between intention and action across any digital device.”
Founded in 2024, Tzafon is an AI company focused on building action oriented AI agents. Tzafon developsmulti-agent systems capable of automating complex digital tasks, enhancing operational efficiency for enterprises and consumers.
By leveraging cutting-edge machine learning techniques, reinforcement learning, and proprietary AI framework, Tzafon looks to take agentic AI to new heights. The company’s technology stands out due to its performance benchmarks with the first version of their model, reportedly achieving top results on web tasks on OSWorld.
The company outlines that while AI excels at researching, writing, and generating graphics, when it comes to taking actions, “we’re still at the starting line“.
“It’s inevitable that AI will go beyond read/ write and move into the realm of actions. There’s a huge gap in the market with many infrastructure challenges to make agents lightning fast, scalable, and more autonomous when it comes to performing tasks. It’s an emerging and fast changing space as is with all other aspects of AI.
“The Tzafon team continues to release agents that are highly performant and able to function cross platform. An amazing feat for a team that’s just getting started,” added Lina Chong, Partner at HV Capital.
With the new capital infusion, Tzafon plans to rapidly scale its compute infrastructure to meet growing market demand, accelerate product development cycles, and further strengthen its strategic market position.
Customers will soon be able to access Tzafon’s “Lightcone” product directly, enabling them to harness their agentic technology.
“Our approach fundamentally reshapes how people leverage AI, providing not just incremental improvements but transformational results,” Löfquist concluded.
