ManaMind has raised US$1.5 million in a pre-seed funding round led by SVV, with participation from EWOR, Ascension, Syndicate Room and Heartfelt. The funding will be used to expand ManaMind's technical team, accelerate proprietary model development and support its growth across key geographies.

The company has also secured design partnerships with Included Games, a mobile games studio, and Crazy Labs, a leading hypercasual developer.

"ManaMind represents an interesting application of agentic AI in the global games industry, where quality assurance remains a significant cost and operational challenge for studios. By automating repetitive testing workflows, ManaMind has the potential to help development teams improve efficiency and game quality, and we are pleased to see SVV backing another ambitious AI business with clear commercial use cases."
