Ukrainian startup Mantis Analytics, known for its AI-powered real-time field monitoring platform, has secured $240,000 in a pre-seed SAFE round. The funding will be used to accelerate the platform’s development and expansion into the US market. The investment was provided by Nezlamni, a fund backed by Uklon founders, as the startup informed Vestbee.
- Founded in 2023 by Anton Tarasyuk, Maksym Tereshchenko, and Ostap Vykhopen, Mantis Analytics creates an AI-powered platform for real-time field monitoring. The platform collects data from media, social networks, and various sources, analyzes it to identify communication patterns, and detects misinformation.
- In April, Mantis Analytics joined the US-based Alchemist Accelerator and secured a $30,000 investment. The accelerator aimed to expedite the startup’s entry into the US market by providing networking opportunities, support for additional fundraising, and access to valuable resources and expertise.
