Yandex grant for AI development
Yandex granted UTasks 1,000,000 ₽ for using AI models – to develop AI features for tasks.
In June 2026, UTasks received a grant of 1,000,000 rubles from Yandex for using AI models.
The grant is provided as tokens – the resource a model consumes for every request: processing text, creating a task or preparing a response. Its size covers millions of requests, which makes it possible to build and test AI features without economizing on experiments.
The grant goes into building artificial intelligence into UTasks: help with wording tasks and breaking them down, creating tasks from text, voice and conversations, and suggestions for deadlines and priorities. The first results came as early as summer – in August 2026, the UTasks AI assistant was released.
