Agent F raises $4m pre-seed to build an ERP that learns the company
10 November 2026: Agent F, a Berlin company building software agents for accounting, planning and financial controls, says it has closed a $4 million pre-seed round led by Alpha Edison of Los Angeles. It will start with fast-growing German technology companies, typically from Series A, before moving into the rest of continental Europe.
Not yet independently verified. Agent F's description of its product as the first ERP built for growing companies is the company's own claim. It names no customers in the release and gives no revenue or usage figures. We will update this when it can be confirmed, and remove this note.
Learning a company's habits instead of being configured
The argument against existing enterprise resource planning software is about implementation. A classic system is configured once, over months, and the company bends its processes to fit. Agent F says its agents instead learn how bookings, approvals and reports already run, and that the same system can then expand from bookkeeping to controlling, planning and warehouse, from one entity to five and from one country to three, with no reimplementation.
The product connects to banks, payment providers and accounting tools, and handles several entities and currencies. Each entry is documented so that it can be traced, and a finance professional signs off the result. "Nothing goes out without a human signature," said Felix Schläger, the founder and chief executive.
Investors from Los Angeles, Prague and the former SAP top table
Alpha Edison leads, joined by United Founders of Prague and Tiny Supercomputer Investment Company, a pre-seed fund based in London and Berlin. The angels include Jan Oberhauser, founder of n8n; Julian Teicke, founder of The Delta and co-founder of wefox; and Dr Jürgen Müller, the former chief technology officer of SAP, who also advises the company. Maximilian von Düring, Daniel Lauchardt, Nicklas Teicke, Timo Gerken and the company's own chief technology officer, Paul Ohlhaut, also put money in.
"Agent F is challenging the rigidity of traditional ERP systems with an AI-native approach that has the potential to redefine the category," said Nick Grouf, managing partner of Alpha Edison.
Vít Horký of United Founders framed the bet in European terms, calling enterprise software "one of the last places where the rules are being written from scratch again".
A ten-person team in its first full year
Schläger founded the business in 2025 and runs it as sole founder, after a career in finance that included work on database systems at Interactive Brokers. Ohlhaut spent twelve years at Amazon and joined Snapchat when it had fewer than 20 people. The team of ten works from Berlin.
Tech.eu reports the company's own figure: administrative tasks that took five to six hours a week are down to around one hour. The release itself gives no customer names.
Our ERP software category lists just two products, and accounting software nine.
