@kissonlin Yes, love to see it!! We need more memory, everywhere, already. AI tooling can provide so much more value then. Trying this out asap, thanks for the work and good luck! 🫡
@kissonlin Lots of congrats! Tanka looks like the future of team communication! AI smart replies with long-term memory! For teams just getting started with Tanka, what's the single feature you recommend they explore first to really see the magic? 💬

@kissonlin Hey team Tanka! Really cool thing you're building ⭐️ We are also launching! Good luck today 💪🏼
Tanka
@manuhortet Thank you for your support! Let us know how you like it :D
Also - good luck with your upcoming launch too!
Tanka
@masump Thanks for the great question! The AI is personal, for each user. You can 'prompt' your AI for specific smart reply styles etc. However, there's no pre-training or fine-tuning for teams yet. It'll be further down the roadmap.
Recap
Congrats on the launch! I have two questions: 1. Are there plans to support Microsoft Teams? ;2. Our team has a lot of materials stored on Google Drive, and it would be great for us if this content could also be integrated as a source.
Tanka
@zhiqi_shi Thank you for the great questions! 1. We are working on that :) Currently it's more for small teams who use slack/ whasapp/ telegram together with emails. 2. We'll integrate with Google Docs and Notion in the coming 2 months, and then integration with file management systems like GDrive or Dropbox later this year. Stay tuned!
Tanka
Glad to announce that Tanka AI is emerging from stealth today! 🔥🔥🔥
Tanka is your next-level "Chief Memory Officer", the 24/7 go-to AI business partner for writing responses, summarizing tasks, and making informed decisions.
Why AI memory? Philosophically speaking, “I am who I am” because I have memory of myself. We believe AI memory is the next-level frontier research that will give rise to true “self-consciousness” in AGI.
Unlike most personal AI assistants that are forgetful and sometimes even mis-remember things, Tanka understands your business context, organizational structure, and project goals so that it constructs a business context-aware knowledge graph.
Drowning in Slack, WhatsApp, and email overload? 💼 We all know that today’s work chat is broken. Slack didn’t become a email killer as it promised, but it adds an additional layer to our communication tech stack. We believe the future of AI-powered work is different. Tanka connects them all, learns from all your context, and crafts smart and relevant replies in your style that is ready to send.
It's AI-enhanced institutional memory preservation and knowledge management. 👩🏻💻👨🏻💻
We’re a team of interdisciplinary neuroscience and AI enthusiasts who are passionate about solving AI long-term memory and productivity.
With proprietary long-term memory tech and award-winning multi-agent framework, Tanka aims to become your team’s AI second brain! 🧠

I love the idea of an AI that actually remembers past conversations. That’s such a huge leap from the usual chat tools that just respond in the moment and forget everything. Tanka is a great tool for team communication. I can see how it’d be super helpful for onboarding new team members too, having all that knowledge readily available would make things so much easier. Excited to see how this evolves!
Congrats on the launch!
Best wishes and sending lots of wins to the team :) @kissonlin
Tanka
@whatshivamdo Exactly! We built the product because we had such pain. Thank you for liking it! Hope you enjoy using the product :) Also - good luck with your launch too!
Tanka
@whatshivamdo exactly, and the cost of forgetting, or even mis-remembering, something could be huge. pls let us know if Tanka works for you!
Opencord AI
I've been a power user of Tanka for 3+ months, and I gotta say it helped so much for my daily work. My favorite feature is the Smart reply and it works so well for all other tools such as WhatsApp and Slack. The smart reply read the whole context and made a better response in a blink.
Highly recommended everyone to give a try!!
Tanka
@kellyann3644 Thanks Kelly for the great support. Glad to hear you enjoyed our AI auto-reply features!

Nice shot. But I want to know how to keep your messages privacy with AI involved?
Tanka
@wright_wang Thanks for the question! At Tanka, security and privacy are at the core of everything we do.
First of all, Tanka adheres to industry-leading security frameworks, including SOC 2 and ISO 27001. All conversations are encrypted using AES-256 encryption at rest and TLS 1.2+ in transit, ensuring that your data remains protected at all times.
Secondly, Tanka does not access, monitor, or retain your conversations for AI training or model improvement. Your data is only yours and is never used to train any AI models.
We also ensure strict data isolation—your information is never mixed with data from other users or organizations. Only authorized personnel, under strict access control, can handle sensitive information. Our security infrastructure undergoes regular penetration testing, real-time monitoring, and strict access control to safeguard your data.
Would love to chat more and understand your use cases or concerns anytime!
Tanka
@wright_wang All messages are encrypted on the server side (AWS, hosted in the US), and no one has access to user data except the user himself/herself. And, we don't use any data to train the LLM. And as Alan mentioned, we are SOC2 compliant and obtaining ISO27001 soon. We built everything with top compliance and privacy standards from the very beginning.
AI Notebook App
Brilliant idea! I wonder how you can secure the data.
Tanka
@sandy_kong Thanks! Yeah this is a very important question.

@sandy_kong Thanks Sandy for your support!
Can't tell you the no.of times I've had to search/scroll through Slack to find past messages & convos...
...if this works as smoothly as it sounds, it would give me a massive break :)
Might have to convince the team to use it too - Best of luck w/ the launch Kisson & the rest of the team!!
Tanka
@cranqnow Thanks Sam. Let's chat! Would love to get your feedback and follow-up on your experience :)
Tanka
@cranqnow Keen to know if we are up to your expectation! Let me know any feedback, we'd love to make it useful for you :) Thank you!!
I'll be sure to let you know Kisson!!
Aha

Tanka
@oliveraha Thank you for your affirmation, Oliver! Glad to know it's useful for you!
Tanka
@oliveraha what other productivity tools do you use? what integrations should we build for you?
Like the idea!
Will test out the tool! It sounds promising!

Congratulations to Kisson on the successful launch of Tanka! As the founder of an AI startup, I believe the capabilities Tanka offers are exactly what we need! I plan to have our development team use it to manage our demand and development progress. We look forward to your future versions!
Tanka
@jackyliu Thank you Jacky! I hope you and your team find Tanka useful! Let us know your feedback :D
Congrats Team 🧡
By the way, what is the meaning of the word "Tanka"
Tanka
@gamifykaran Great question! "Tanka" is a genre of classical Japanese poetry known for being short and precise. We believe highly-productive workplace communication should be the same too. That’s exactly the characteristics of Tanka’s smart reply—lightning-fast, accurate, and contextually relevant.
@alanchristophx That’s really cool, thanks for explaining Alan :)
Tanka
@gamifykaran Thank you Karan! Haha we hope that our product is as simple and elegant as 'Tanka' - the Japanese short form poem :)
HeyForm
Excited to see Tanka finally launched—congrats, Kisson!
As a beta user, my team and I are extremely impressed with it. The smart reply feature is fantastic and has saved us a ton of time. The integrations have boosted our productivity like never before. I highly recommend Tanka to anyone looking for an AI-powered workspace for their team—you won’t regret it!
Tanka
@luobaishun Thanks! Would love to hear the before-and-after time and cost saved by Tanka, when you can quantify it! :)
Tanka
@luobaishun Thank you for collaborating with us :)
Chance AI
Wow, Kisson, Alan, and Vincent - this is absolutely game-changing! The integration across WhatsApp, Slack, Telegram, and Gmail is exactly what teams have been missing. So many of us juggle between these platforms daily, and having an AI that learns across all of them is brilliant.
The "second brain" concept with long-term memory is fascinating. Have you found teams using it in ways you didn't expect? I can imagine this being incredibly powerful for maintaining context across long-running projects or onboarding new team members.
Really appreciate that you're making it accessible with a free tier. The smart replies and automatic to-dos could be massive time-savers, especially for teams working across different time zones. Also super curious about how the AI builds its understanding of team dynamics and communication patterns over time.
The engagement on your launch is incredible but not surprising - you're solving a real pain point here. The perfect rating speaks volumes about the user experience you've created.
Quick questions:
How does the AI handle context switching between different projects or teams?
What's your approach to balancing AI assistance with data privacy?
Any plans to expand the integrations to other platforms?
Love seeing tools that actually make team communication smarter instead of just adding more noise. You're pioneering the future of collaborative AI - keep innovating! 🚀🧠
Looking forward to watching Tanka evolve and transform how teams work together. This could become an essential part of every team's toolkit! 💪
Tanka
@xi_z Thanks for the thoughtful comments.
1. Tanka AI is designed to handle context switching between different projects or teams effectively. It leverages pre-defined goals, additional background information added as memories, and in-depth learning from starred memories. This allows the AI to switch context seamlessly by utilizing specific information relevant to each group or project. All this is supported by our proprietary Memory Graph technologies.
2. Regarding data privacy, Tanka AI prioritizes security and transparency. It combines advanced AI technologies, including Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) techniques and knowledge graphs, while ensuring data privacy by not using customer data for model training. This approach allows the AI to provide meaningful insights and assistance without compromising user privacy.
3. Yes we are planning to expand on our integrations, especially the mainstream ones that knowledge workers have widely adopted. How's your current workflow like? What integrations would you need the most?
Tanka
@xi_z Thanks for the thoughtful questions! Feel free to share with us more feedback or questions, we are always available: kisson@tanka.ai
Congrats! It looks great, I'm sure I'll give it a try, especially seeing your beautifully designed product page. Keep it up! ❤️❤️❤️
Tanka
@cloudkoonly Thanks for the kind words, please let us know your feedback!
Will you also apply at some point one of these?
– uploading videos and analysing them by AI
– voice message transcript
– prompts (AI assistant) for each conversation with a new person. (Because at the moment it is available only in My assistant)
Tanka
@busmark_w_nika Multi-modal AI processing is on the roadmap, starting from images, then videos, and further down the road PPT and excel :)
- Voice message on Tanka can already be converted to text. But making it to transcript - like meeting note - will take some time, we're on it, first will integrate with Zoom in Q2 :)
- That's a great idea! We are introducing templates and prompts for every new user at Tanka, you'll see it by the end of Feb! :D
@kissonlin In that case, you are ahead of my thoughts, you read my needs! :D Telepathy.
We got early access to Tanka, and it completely changed how we handle team communication. Most AI tools just reply to messages, but Tanka actually remembers past conversations, decisions, and key details. No more repeating yourself or digging through endless Slack threads to find what was said last week.
What makes Tanka different?
It has memory – Tanka remembers context from past chats and emails, so it picks up where you left off instead of starting from scratch every time.
It suggests smart replies – Whether in Slack, WhatsApp, or email, Tanka gives quick, context-aware responses that actually make sense.
It connects everything – No more switching between a dozen apps—Tanka pulls info from Slack, Gmail, Outlook, and WhatsApp into one place.
It just works – No complicated setup, no new platform to learn. Tanka fits right into your workflow from day one.
How it helped us:
We used Tanka for team chats and emails, and it saved us a ton of time. Replies were faster, follow-ups didn’t get lost, and we finally had a tool that kept track of important info without us having to do the extra work.
If you’ve ever wished your AI assistant actually remembered things instead of making you repeat yourself—Tanka is exactly that.
Tanka
@iryna_kutnyak That's really great to hear! This prompt is better than our own words haha. Let us know if any additional features can be useful for you. Appreciate your support!!
Tanka
@iryna_kutnyak Thanks Iryna for the detailed feedback! Appreciate your support. I hope we are delivering AI that truly works for you and your team.
Let's goooo 😎
Tanka
@alexmacgregor Yay!
AI amnesia is the biggest problem I am currently facing. AI is already very intelligent, but it is indeed forgetful. I hope this software can solve this problem. Congratulations on the release!
Tanka
@grace_lili Glad you see the value! :D Hope it really helps, let us know!
