Granty Inc. (Headquarters: Shibuya, Tokyo; CEO: Yasuyuki Matsubara) launched 'Granty Agent,' a specialized recruitment service for Product Managers (PMs), on Tuesday, May 19, 2026.

Granty Agent is a recruitment support service that goes beyond simple job placement by providing 6 months of post-hire support to ensure a smooth transition. The service aims to empower PMs to take on challenges in business models where the product directly drives growth and revenue.

Key Feature: Dual Support from CAs and Senior PM Mentors

The service's standout feature is its industry-first dual support system. In addition to a Career Advisor (CA), clients are supported by an 'Active Senior PM Mentor' who has experience beyond product management, such as business leadership. Keita Yanagawa, Executive Officer at BASE Inc., has been appointed as the inaugural mentor. Career consultation, job matching, and the 6-month post-hire support are completely free of charge (success fee model for hiring companies).

Background: Shift of PM Roles to 'Business Core'

Driven by the expansion of the SaaS market and the emergence of Generative AI, product-led business models where the product itself is the revenue lever are becoming common. Consequently, the PM's role is shifting from 'translating requirements into products' to 'making strategic decisions on how to use products to drive business revenue.' However, many PMs face anxiety regarding role mismatches and onboarding challenges due to the varied nature of PM duties across companies. Granty Agent addresses these issues by providing a continuous support system.

Role Distribution

- **Career Advisor (CA):** Handles placement operations, including job proposals, resume reviews, interview prep, and salary negotiations. - **Senior PM Mentor:** Provides neutral career advice and practical onboarding support as a third party, without direct involvement in the recruitment process.
