Arga Labs

SeedEval & quality
Why watch Li is trying to give enterprise agents a place to practice on Salesforce-class systems without risking a customer org.

Phillip Li is co-founder and CEO of Arga Labs, with co-founder Akira Tong. The company raised a $10 million seed led by General Catalyst to build digital twins for training agents on enterprise software.

Sandboxes that behave like work

Li's public pitch is that agents need stateful practice on the same permissioned systems employees use, not only chat transcripts. Arga's twins aim to keep webhooks and resets so training can be parallel and repeatable.

General Catalyst seed

The August 2026 coverage centers on a $10 million seed led by General Catalyst, framing Arga against the risk of agents writing into live Salesforce and Workday tenants.
