Ascension backs ManaMind's $1.5M pre-seed round

We are pleased to announce our participation in ManaMind's $1.5M pre-seed round, alongside lead investor Sure Valley Ventures, EWOR, SyndicateRoom and HEARTFELT_.

Quality assurance in gaming is slow, expensive and hard to scale. ManaMind is building autonomous AI testing agents that work around the clock, cutting regression cycles to six hours and catching 86% of critical bugs early.

The team understands this problem firsthand because they have lived it, and they are approaching it with real energy and urgency. We are excited to back them at the start of their journey.
