SCB 10X invests in Tasklet platform for AI Agent in latest funding round

On October 26, 2026, SCB 10X announced an investment in Tasklet, a platform for AI Agent that automates complex business processes. The investment round raised 12.8 million US dollars with participation from various investors.

Tasklet aims to transition AI from being merely an assistant to functioning as an agent capable of executing tasks autonomously. Users can describe their workflows in natural language, allowing the AI Agent to connect with various applications and tools within the organization to automate the specified processes.

Founded by Andrew Lee and Jonny Dimond, Tasklet builds on their experience from developing Shortwave, an AI-driven email platform. The vision behind Tasklet is that AI Agents should manage ongoing business tasks, not just assist with isolated tasks.

Tasklet's design allows its AI Agents to operate continuously, connecting with organizational tools and data, responding to events or scheduled tasks, and retaining context through a memory system. Additionally, Tasklet incorporates internal controls and security measures to facilitate the practical use of AI Agents in business processes.

The Chief Investment Officer of SCB 10X stated that the company sees long-term growth potential in AI Agents, which can evolve from performing specific tasks to driving ongoing organizational processes. The experience of Andrew in building Firebase and the team's background in developing Shortwave enhances their understanding of the market.

Andrew Lee, co-founder and CEO of Tasklet, expressed confidence that AI for businesses will evolve beyond merely speeding up human tasks to enabling organizations to delegate real responsibilities to AI Agents. He emphasized the need for AI Agents to understand context, integrate with various systems, and possess reliable security and control measures for real-world business operations. He welcomed SCB 10X as an investor, sharing a common vision for the transformative potential of AI Agents in organizations.

Organizations interested in adopting AI Agents can begin by selecting specific tasks, integrating Agents with necessary tools and data, and then expanding to other areas. AI Agents can handle routine tasks or those triggered by specific events while allowing organizations to monitor, set permissions, and control operations, facilitating a transition from AI experiments to integrating AI Agents into daily operations.
