AI Startup Trina Raises USD 114,000 from Partners Lounge for Team AI and AI Search Marketing Services

AI startup Trina has raised 150 million won (about USD 114,000) from Partners Lounge, the company announced on Nov. 10. Founded in August this year, Trina plans to use the funding to improve Trina AX, a company AI that teams share, and Trina GEO Marketing, an AI search marketing service.

Trina runs two services. Trina AX is a shared AI workspace for teams. Once a company loads its files and ways of working into it, every team member works with the AI in the same way. When someone calls “@Trina” in a team chat room, the result is posted directly to that room. The setup lets an entire team share AI agents such as Claude Code and Codex.

Trina AX’s code is public on GitHub, so users can install it themselves. A plan in which Trina handles hosting and operations offers a 14-day free trial. The service is available on Mac, Windows, iPhone and Android apps and in web browsers.

Trina GEO Marketing targets small and midsize businesses without a dedicated marketer. So that a company shows up first when customers search on Google and ChatGPT, the AI picks keywords, writes posts daily and publishes them to the company blog. Search clicks and AI answer exposure results are sent via KakaoTalk every Monday.

Trina says the Trina team’s own company blog, run the same way, saw Google search clicks rise from 75 in March 2026 to 2,812 in September. Pricing starts at USD 144 (190,000 won) per month per brand.

Trina’s founding team also runs TreeSoop, an AX agency that handles corporate AI transformation (AX) consulting and work automation. Trina AX takes the methods TreeSoop refined while introducing AI to client companies and turns them into a product.

“Many companies have handed out AI accounts, but each employee uses them differently, so the work stays the same,” said Daehyun Nam, CEO of Trina. “We will build it so that once a company’s files and ways of working are connected to AI one time, the whole team can work at the same level.”

Trina plans to use the funding for product development of both services and for winning customers in Korea and overseas.
