Current voice AI systems struggle with this fundamental challenge, either interrupting users mid-thought or waiting awkwardly long after they've finished. The problem? Existing turn detection relies on either audio-only signals (missing semantic context) or text-only analysis (losing critical vocal cues). When a user says \"I'm flying from San Francisco...\" are they pausing to think, or done answering? Audio and text alone can't tell; but humans know instantly.\n\n**Introducing Vogent-Turn-80M**. Vogent-Turn-80M solves this by doing what humans do naturally: processing both how you're speaking and what you're saying simultaneously. Built on a streamlined 80M parameter architecture, our model fuses acoustic features from audio with conversational context from text, enabling it to understand that \"123 456\" with rising intonation means more is coming, while \"I'm departing from San Francisco\" is incomplete when asked about two airports. This multimodal approach achieves 94.1% accuracy while running in just \\~7ms on a T4 GPU—fast enough to feel completely natural in real-time conversations.\n\nThe result? Voice agents that finally feel like talking to a human. No more frustrating interruptions. No more awkward pauses. Just natural, flowing conversation that responds at the right moment, every time.\n\nHugging Face: https://huggingface.co/vogent/Vogent-Turn-80M\n\nGitHub: https://github.com/vogent/vogent-turn\n\nBlog Post: https://blog.vogent.ai/posts/voturn-80m-state-of-the-art-turn-detection-for-voice-agents\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=94839&key=user_uploads/539546/d4b5cab9-e1c3-47cf-bcc5-cc4d519a1d88)\n\n", "url": "https://www.ycombinator.com/launches/Off-vogent-turn-state-of-the-art-turn-detection-for-voice-ai", "votes": 8, "created_at": "2025-10-23T14:37:17.278Z" }, { "id": 91917, "title": "Vogent Voicelab: API to run top open-source voice models, like CSM-1B", "tagline": "An API for fast, high-quality, and consistent text-to-speech generation from top open-source voice models, like Sesame CSM-1B, Dia, and more.", "body": "We’re excited to launch **Vogent Voicelab (vogent.ai/voicelab): an optimized API to run top open-source voice models.**\n\nNew open-source text-to-speech models come out every week, with many ranking as state-of-the-art on popular benchmarks.\n\nHowever, most of these models are not readily usable for high-volume, low-latency inference.

Vogent is made for developers and no-code users alike.\n\n\n\n# The Problem\n\nWe’ve spent the past year building high-volume voice AI agents for a number of big-ticket customers, including the second largest prescription network in the US, the biggest flight and hotel booking sites in Europe, top-10 health insurance companies, car dealership chains, and more.\n\nWhile the core voice agent cycle (STT-LLM-TTS-VAD) is a mostly solved problem at this point, the last-mile problem for making these agents performant was frustrating. We ended up building a lot of band-aids, and we decided to consolidate all of the tools that we used to build these agents into a self-serve platform for developers and non-developers alike.\n\n# How Vogent Works\n\nVoice AI isn’t new, and neither are platforms to build agents. Our approach is to also offer higher-level building blocks that make it easier to build performant agents that can handle complex tasks. These include:\n\n* Our drag-and-drop flow builder, which lets teams build agents that are both conversationally flexible and aligned to a task.\n* Our counterfactuals feature, which lets you test new agents on past calls\n* Our IVR detection model, which can tell the difference between a human or prerecorded message and navigate the latter\n* Custom, in-house voices that are optimized for realistic numbers and spelling\n* LLMs fine-tuned on millions of phone conversations that can be easily prompted to follow phone-call tasks\n\nAs well as other powerful abstractions.\n\nOur other focus is providing as much to developers as possible. We expose most of our platform through GraphQL and REST APIs, and we have a JS SDK that makes voice as easy to add to your product as any other AI modality.

Unfortunately, making phone calls is expensive, time-consuming, and resource-intensive; an offshore human caller can only make 100-300 dials a day, and increasing the number of humans dialing adds management burden. Making calls time-sensitive only adds to the operational complexity.\n\nOthers’ attempts to solve this problem with AI fall short; chaining together out-of-the-box API’s makes conversational agents that are difficult to train and **very** slow to respond.\n\n### Our Solution: Custom, Low-Latency Voice Agents\n\nIt took a while for us to get here -- we tried to get a version of this working a year ago by naïvely chaining together transcription, language, and text-to-speech services, but we ran into the problem that most AI voice agent solutions have: the latency was too high, instructing unspecialized models to execute tasks on the phone was difficult, and the realism was just not there.\\\n\\\nFast-forward a few months; our parallel dialer ([eltodialer.com](http://eltodialer.com)) was growing quickly, and we realized that it gave us what we needed to fix our earlier issues: from a small subset of consenting customers, we were able to gather troves of conversational data to train condensed, specialized models that were low-latency and worked well on the phone with prompting and few-shot fine-tuning. The dialer also gave us robust infrastructure for serving and monitoring hundreds of thousands of dials a day.\\\n\\\nWe've used that data and infrastructure to build an end-to-end in-house pipeline for training easy-to-teach, low-latency, realistic voice agents, and have worked with a handful of pilot customers to get the agents to execute tasks consistently. Elto's AI now runs tens of thousands of dials daily with no human oversight, automating work for verticals from logistics providers and healthcare payers to staffing solutions and municipalities, and more, with failure rates lower than those of human callers.\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=80688&key=user_uploads/539546/05909c0f-0456-453f-b49a-94de17a161ca)\n\n\\\n\\\nWe're now making the platform generally available on an invite basis.

Get started [here.](https://docs.openlayer.com/get-started)\n\n—\n\nHey guys! We’re Gabe, Rishab, and Vikas, the founders of Openlayer. We met at Apple, where we noticed that every AI/ML team inevitably ran into the same problem: their models would not perform as accurately as they thought they would in the real world. We left to solve this problem by building a best-in-class process for evaluating and improving models.\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=80433&key=user_uploads/236551/54d20552-4ea4-4ab2-8337-92046d1c89e5)\n\n🤯  **The problem** Most of us get how crucial AI evals are now. The thing is, almost all the eval platforms we’ve seen are clunky – there’s too much manual setup and adaptation needed, which breaks developers’ workflows.\n\n✅  **Solution** We’re releasing a radically simpler workflow.\n\nAll you need to do is connect your GitHub repo to Openlayer and define must-pass tests for your AI system. Once integrated, every commit triggers these tests automatically on Openlayer, ensuring continuous evaluation without extra effort.\n\nWe offer 100+ tests (and are always adding more), including custom tests. We’re language-agnostic, and you can customize the workflow using our CLI and REST API. We also offer template repositories around common use cases to get you started quickly.\n\nYou can leverage the same setup to monitor your live AI systems after you deploy them. It’s just a matter of setting some variables, and your Openlayer tests will run on top of your live data and send alerts if they start failing.\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=80433&key=user_uploads/236551/c4a17145-aa0e-455e-a04d-f0484803de6f)\n\n🙏  **Asks** We love feedback! [**Sign up for free,**](https://app.openlayer.com/) and let us know your thoughts! [Book a call](https://cal.com/vikasnair/30min?date=2024-04-16&month=2024-04&layout=mobile) with us for a demo, personalized onboarding, to give feedback, or just chat.

Our company, however, was actually in Y Combinator’s S21 batch. In short, we spent two years building something _that people didn’t want_. We decided to make a hard pivot, and that ultimately led us to Positional.\n\n## [🌲](https://emojipedia.org/evergreen-tree) We are back to our roots. \n\nAbout ten years ago, we fell in love with inbound marketing, particularly content marketing and SEO. Since then, we’ve built and scaled content channels in some of the world’s most competitive industries (e.g., consumer finance, and developer tools).\n\nWe’ve wanted to start Positional since at least 2019. As content marketers and SEOs, we found ourselves constantly jumping between 6-7 separate tools throughout the day. We had one toolset for keyword research, another for content optimization, yet another for internal linking, and then an entirely different set of tools for measuring the success of our channel and analytics.\n\n**With Positional, our goal is to bring the entire workflow together. Positional takes you from start to finish, from ideation to optimization and analytics.** \n\n## [💪](https://emojipedia.org/flexed-biceps) One platform to do the job.\n\nToday, Positional has 11 thoughtfully built features. Of course, we have tools for keyword research and tracking. But we also have a number of really unique experiences and workflows for internal linking, content optimization, content analytics, and mapping buyer journeys.\n\n### [🔎](https://emojipedia.org/magnifying-glass-tilted-right) Ideation\n\n![](https://lh7-us.googleusercontent.com/wKWlHN4QsHDSc7i2e6zMreZIBxr6t6sY3zpsiJ194ZiittqTC23FtizQb3UDjpQFN_62ZYOQ-KSNByQpWRSDh6zVe8L_famgs7uyXXsYhPQkxoYDPCIXxGUdnDlaZN5zjGcSLeJQcVQfdoJZMf5fQHU)\n\n_Keyword Tracking within Positional._\n\n* **Keyword Research** — An intuitive keyword research toolset, providing advanced insights into how your audience searches, engages, and converts.\n* **Keyword Tracking** — Monitoring keyword performance has never been easier.\n* **Competitor Research** — Quickly identify the keywords your competitors are ranking for that you aren’t.\n* **Keyword Clustering** — Never manually check the SERPs again.

We’re Yash, Danny, and Arthur, the founders of Legion Health.\n\nAt Legion, **we’re building autonomous medical care**, starting in psychiatry.\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=99205&key=user_uploads/616238/f421f535-9738-4e44-ab44-05bd70f7c1f1)\n\nWe previously launched Legion as an AI-native psychiatry clinic ([see here](https://www.ycombinator.com/launches/LT4-legion-health-world-class-ai-enabled-psychiatry-covered-by-insurance)). We’re relaunching now because we recently crossed an important threshold: Legion has received regulatory authorization for fully AI-powered renewals of psychiatric maintenance medications. To our knowledge, this makes Legion the first mental health company ever to have approval to let AI provide actual medical care.\n\nThis is a meaningful product update for us because it is the first time AI in Legion can directly execute a real clinical workflow in production. Until now, most of the value we created came from making the clinic itself dramatically more efficient by automating 95%+ of the admin work. This is different. This is AI-native care delivery moving from support work into clinical action inside a live, regulated system.\n\n# TL;DR\n\nLegion Health is building autonomous medical care. We started by building an AI-native psychiatry clinic, and we’re now launching the next step: in Utah, Legion has received regulatory authorization for AI-led renewals of eligible psychiatric maintenance medications.\n\nWe think this is an important proof point that medical care can move from clinician-led workflows, to AI-led workflows with supervision, and eventually to fully autonomous care in well-scoped pathways.\n\n# The problem\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=99205&key=user_uploads/616238/55fd5ce0-2b67-4eef-9477-8c6e0841bb56)\n\nPsychiatry (mental health + medicine) is one of the clearest categories where a new site of care is needed.\n\nThe issue is not that people do not want care. It is that the system cannot deliver enough of it. There are too few psychiatric providers, too much administrative overhead, and too much friction between a patient needing help and a patient actually getting actionable clinical resolution.\n\nEven in the simplest cases, the system breaks down. A patient who is stable on a medication that is already working can still be forced to wait days or weeks, book a visit, incur costs, chase the pharmacy, and spend time and energy navigating the process instead of getting better. That is not a small inconvenience. It is a direct consequence of a care model built around scarce clinician minutes and fragmented operations.\n\nBut continuity is the unit, not visits. Mental health care works best when care is longitudinal, not episodic; when the system can follow the patient over time, resolve routine needs quickly, and escalate humans when something truly requires human judgment.\n\nThat is why we believe psychiatry (and medicine in general) needs a new digital front door to care: one that is always available, clinically actionable, and connected to licensed clinicians whenever escalation is needed.\n\n# Our progression: AI-native clinic -> semi-autonomous care -> fully autonomous care\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=99205&key=user_uploads/616238/949a0a17-f47b-466c-9948-e66ad8e57741)\n\nWe have always thought the path to autonomy matters just as much as the destination.\n\n### Phase 1: AI-native psychiatry clinic\n\nPhase 1 was the AI-native clinic. We built a real psychiatry clinic where human psychiatrists and AI agents work together to provide high-quality care directly to patients. That forced us to solve the hard, messy parts of the real world first: intake, scheduling, medical records, pharmacy coordination, prior authorizations, reimbursement, follow-up, and clinical escalation. In the process, we built a clinical + operational + reimbursement + regulatory stack in one system.\n\n**Demo:** Garry Tan recently featured Legion on Y Combinator’s YouTube, and here we show our AI operating system that allows us to take care of a huge clinic with an extremely small admin team, using automations and agents.\n\n\n\nThe Legion segment starts around 4:33.\n\n### Phase 2: Semi-autonomous care with clinician supervision (today)\n\nPhase 2 is what we are launching now: semi-autonomous care with clinician supervision. In this model, AI handles the default workflow in narrow, safety-scoped pathways, and clinicians supervise exceptions, ambiguity, and higher-complexity cases. The Utah renewals workflow is our first real example of this. It is the bridge from AI assisting clinicians to AI executing narrowly scoped clinical work, with clinician escalation when needed.\n\n**Our social media and press launch for our first-ever pilot in mental health:**\n\nLinkedIn: \n\nX: \n\nPress release: \n\n### Phase 3: Fully autonomous care\n\nPhase 3 is fully autonomous care in the future. Over time, we believe more workflows will move from clinician-led to AI-led with supervision, to fully autonomous in well-scoped pathways with hard guardrails, continuous auditing, and mandatory escalation when appropriate.\n\nWe do not think medicine jumps from zero to full autonomy overnight. We think it gets there one real workflow at a time.\n\n# What we launched\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=99205&key=user_uploads/616238/7dafbb1d-8746-47cb-b95c-2f59185fd011)\n\nIn Utah, Legion is rolling out AI-led renewals for eligible lower-risk psychiatric maintenance medications.\n\nThe workflow is intentionally narrow and safety-scoped. Patients explicitly opt in, are clearly told they are interacting with AI, go through identity verification, and complete a focused safety review grounded in medication and chart context. If anything is ambiguous, higher-risk, or out of scope, the case escalates to a clinician. Patients can also request human review at any point.\n\nWe started with renewals because renewals are a perfect example of what is broken in mental healthcare today, and because they are exactly the kind of routine, high-friction workflow that should eventually become software-handled by default inside a real care-delivery system.\n\n# Why is this such an important step in healthcare AI?\n\nAt first glance, a refill may sound narrow. We think that is exactly why it matters.\n\nIf AI cannot safely take on a constrained, repetitive, clinically meaningful workflow like renewals, then talk of autonomous care is still mostly theory. But if AI can safely execute a narrow clinical workflow in production, under explicit guardrails, with clinician escalation when needed, then the future starts to become concrete.\n\nThat is what this launch represents.\n\nIt is not just a faster refill. It is a proof point that care can start moving:\n\n* from information to clinical action\n* from copilot to autopilot\n* from clinician-led workflows everywhere to clinician-led exceptions where they matter most\n* from scarcity-based care to a system that can eventually support abundance\n\nWe think this is the next important step toward the real solution: medical care that is always available, high-frequency, longitudinal, more personalized, more consistent, and able to scale far beyond clinician supply alone.\n\n# Why we had to build a clinic first\n\nWe did not start with a chatbot. We started by building the clinic.\n\nThat gave us something much more valuable than a thin AI layer: a unified data layer across records, prescriptions, scheduling, messaging, and follow-up; real operational feedback loops; clinician escalation pathways; and the infrastructure required to turn AI into actionable clinical resolution in the real world.\n\nWe think that is the real moat here.\n\nThe company that wins this category will not just have impressive models. It will own the default entry point to care, the patient relationship, the workflows, the regulatory trust, and the feedback loops required to make AI-native care delivery safe and real.\n\n# Why we started Legion Health\n\nMy co-founders and I have known each other for 12 years and were roommates at Princeton. I ([Yash](https://www.linkedin.com/in/yashmpatel1/)) worked on Medicare and Medicaid payment policy at the Congressional Budget Office, [Danny](https://www.linkedin.com/in/danielgwilson/) brings deep AI and engineering experience from Microsoft, and [Arthur](https://www.linkedin.com/in/arthur-macwaters/) brings product and operations depth from McKinsey.\n\nThis problem is also deeply personal to us. We started Legion because we have seen how broken the medical system can feel when someone actually needs help, and we want to build the kind of system we wish existed for people we love.\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=99205&key=user_uploads/616238/0d9011ba-2414-4482-8dfa-b481fdf51a5c)\n\n# Call to action\n\nIf you’re a **cracked engineer**, and you care about working on hard problems that impact real humans, we want to hear from you.\n\nIf you’re an **investor** who believes in a future where humans and AI work together to solve humanity’s biggest problems, we want to hear from you.\n\nIf you work in **digital health, payer partnerships, state/federal government, or AI-native care delivery** and want to talk, we want to hear from you.\n\nContact: [yash@legionhealth.com](mailto:yash@legionhealth.com)", "url": "https://www.ycombinator.com/launches/Po5-legion-health-autonomous-medical-care-starting-with-fully-ai-powered-psychiatric-medication-prescriptions", "votes": 12, "created_at": "2026-03-30T00:36:43.759Z" }, { "id": 82526, "title": "🧠 Legion Health — World-class, AI-enabled psychiatry covered by insurance", "tagline": "We use AI and accept insurance so our psychiatric providers can take better care of more patients.

This rate is [even lower](https://www.healthaffairs.org/doi/10.1377/hlthaff.2017.0325) for specific insurance plans. Moreover, [less than 20%](https://www.notion.so/Transcript-Patient-Messaging-11fb811d9b614ea5bf55b52445aee739?pvs=21) of psychiatrists are accepting new patients. For those who are, the median wait time for an in-person initial appointment is over 60 days.\n\nMany psychiatrists avoid taking insurance because the financial and administrative burdens outweigh the benefits. After covering administrative staff (scheduling, billing, patient support), paying for office space, and disputing insurance denials and underpayments, little profit remains for the psychiatrist.\n\nFor patients with serious mental health concerns, this lack of access and affordability can literally cost lives. The three of us deeply care about mental health and have personally experienced the difficulty of finding high-quality, affordable psychiatric care for ourselves, our family, and our friends.\n\n# **🌱 Opportunity: A huge and growing need**\n\nPost-COVID, [around 32% of U.S. adults](https://www.kff.org/other/state-indicator/adults-reporting-symptoms-of-anxiety-or-depressive-disorder-during-covid-19-pandemic/?currentTimeframe=0&selectedRows=%7B%22states%22:%7B%22all%22:%7B%7D%7D,%22wrapups%22:%7B%22united-states%22:%7B%7D%7D%7D&sortModel=%7B%22colId%22:%22Location%22,%22sort%22:%22asc%22%7D) experience mental health conditions annually, equating to about 83 million people. [Approximately 50%](https://www.samhsa.gov/data/sites/default/files/reports/rpt39443/2021NSDUHFFRRev010323.pdf) of these individuals, or 42 million, do not receive necessary treatment. About 25% of those with mental health issues, or 10 million people, require psychiatric care (rather than perhaps just therapy). With a conservative annual cost of $2,500 per patient, this translates to an unmet market opportunity of approximately $25 billion. The demand for psychiatric services is growing at [about 4.1% annually](https://www.grandviewresearch.com/industry-analysis/us-psychiatry-clinic-market-report). Additionally, [over 60% of U.S. counties](https://www.aamc.org/news/growing-psychiatrist-shortage-enormous-demand-mental-health-services) lack a psychiatrist, leaving these areas particularly underserved.\n\n# **💡 Solution: Using tech + AI to make high-quality psychiatric care viable and scalable**\n\nLegion Health is a network of psychiatric providers delivering world-class care to insured patients. Our software and AI dramatically reduce costs by minimizing capital expenses through telehealth and lowering operational costs with AI agents that enhance workflows and manage patient care with minimal human intervention.\n\nBy directly hiring our providers, we can quickly implement technology in a sandbox environment. Furthermore, as we scale, our stacking LLM agents continuously improve, enhancing care quality and patient experience. Unlike other VC-backed mental health companies (e.g., Betterhelp, Cerebral), we 1) accept insurance, 2) emphasize high-quality and ethical care, and 3) have genuine AI expertise.\n\nAt Legion Health, most patients:\n\n* See a psychiatric provider within a week.\n* Pay $30 or less out of pocket.\n* Pick up their medication from the pharmacy within 24 hours.\n* Receive rapid responses to messages from their provider or our front desk.\n* Actually see an improvement in their mental health due to high-quality treatment.\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=82526&key=user_uploads/616238/76d1fa28-a33e-4de9-bc7c-901e11d31105)\n\n# **📢 Asks**\n\n1.

Superwall manages $1.6B+ in annual subscription revenue across 10,000+ apps. The infrastructure layer is free at any scale; the only meter on the platform is revenue that converts through a Superwall-rendered paywall — subscriptions sold anywhere else are never billed.\r\n\r\n**Standalone backend:** The highest-revenue apps on Superwall like Cal AI — run their **entire subscription stack on Superwall alone: no second backend, no other subscription platform underneath**. Entitlement state is computed server-side from App Store Server Notifications V2 and Google Play Real-Time Developer Notifications, delivered by Apple and Google directly to Superwall. The largest single app runs **$43.7M ARR entirely on Superwall**; the top 10 together represent $134M+ in annual subscription revenue. Apps that previously ran a different subscription backend complete an automated migration — subscription history, entitlement state, webhook configuration — and run on Superwall alone from then on; imported subscribers are never billed.\r\n\r\n**Pricing:** The subscription infrastructure — entitlements, receipt validation, webhooks, analytics, SQL access — is free at any scale, with no revenue threshold and no per-event fees. The paywall product is free up to $10k/month in paywall-attributed revenue, then 1% of paywall-attributed revenue, and only that revenue: an app with $50k/month in subscriptions and no Superwall paywalls in use pays $0/month for the entire platform, and revenue the platform didn't help earn is never billed. Compared with charging a percentage of all subscription revenue, the difference is the base, not the rate.\r\n\r\n**Coverage:** Apple App Store, Google Play, and Stripe — including web checkout, external browser checkout from iOS paywalls (App2Web), and products from any external billing system via Custom Store Products. Monetization models: auto-renewing subscriptions, free trials and intro offers, one-time purchases, lifetime unlocks, and consumables. SDKs: iOS & Apple platforms, Android, React Native, Flutter, Expo, Unity, and Web — all open source on [GitHub](https://github.com/superwall). Not just for engineers: growth, product, support, and data teams run monetization from the dashboard, analytics, and SQL access day to day.\r\n\r\n**What Superwall does not do:** It does not process payments — Apple, Google, and Stripe do.

Companies create an enterprise account on Deskimo and provide their employees a monthly budget that they can use at any of the listed workspaces on the app. As an employee, you can choose when to WFH and when to spend a few hours at a workspace to take important calls, attend a team or client meeting, or get some deep work done that requires full focus.

Thereafter, we were the co-founders of HotelQuicky (the “Hotel Tonight” of Asia-Pacific), which turned into an OTA generating over $100M in annual GBV (exited in 2017).\n\nAfter HotelQuickly, Raphael then founded GoBeeBike, which was the leading bike sharing company in Hong Kong, before becoming the Head of Asia at Rocket Internet. Chris co-founded GuestReady, which is now the largest short-term rental management company in Europe and the Middle East.\n\nWe have made a lot of learnings in PropTech, hospitality and on-demand marketplaces. We combine these learnings with our own experience in working remotely for the most part of the past 10 years and decided to launch Deskimo in a period where most companies are moving to a hybrid work model. \n\n### **Asks**\n\nWe would love to get your feedback, if you happen to be living in Asia and like to work from different places.

It brings Incident Response, On-Call, AI SRE agents, Status Pages, and Retrospectives into one purpose-built, end-to-end platform.\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=66512&key=user_uploads/642689/d1b534a4-b1f0-444d-b767-aab1d221e1cb)\n\n## **Problem**\n\nWe met at Instacart 🥕—where Quentin was the first SRE and JJ was leading product management efforts. As Instacart grew from a $1B to a $40B company, everything had to scale with it: infrastructure, teams, and the processes that keep the business running when things go wrong. With millions of orders flowing through the platform, incidents weren’t rare edge cases—they were an inevitable part of operating at that level. Checkout issues, platform outages, weird cascading failures at the worst possible times… we saw it all.\n\nWhat surprised us wasn’t that incidents happened. It was how quickly the _process_ broke down under pressure. Our manual way of responding—jumping between Slack, PagerDuty, Datadog, and a dozen dashboards—just wasn’t enough. Every incident started with the same scramble: spinning up channels, pulling people in, figuring out who’s running point, trying to keep comms coherent, and stitching together context from different tools and threads. It worked when the team was small and the system was simpler. At scale, it turned chaotic and inconsistent.\n\nAnd the hardest part wasn’t even the debugging. It was the inconsistency. You’d rely on runbook checklists and tribal knowledge, hoping someone remembered what to do next—who to page, which workflow to follow, how to communicate internally and externally, what steps to capture for the retrospective. In the moment, that’s a lot to ask. Afterward, it meant retros were slow (or skipped), action items drifted, and the same classes of incidents kept coming back because learning didn’t keep pace with growth.\n\n## **Solution**\n\nRootly gives you an end-to-end incident lifecycle—from first page to resolution to post-incident learning—built where teams actually operate (Slack & MS Teams), and it’s all powered by AI.\n\n\n\n**Incident Response**\n\nRootly helps you declare incidents, spin up the right Slack channels and roles, coordinate responders, track tasks, and keep communication structured—while automating the operational “busywork” that normally slows teams down.\n\n**On-Call**\n\nRootly On-Call is built to notify the right person the first time, with scheduling and escalation that scales from a small team to a global org. It’s designed to be reliable and easy to use, with a beautiful mobile experience that makes getting paged somewhat enjoyable.\n\n**AI SRE Agents**\n\nRootly’s AI SRE agents help teams move faster during incidents by connecting the dots across signals like recent code changes, telemetry, and past incidents. Instead of starting from scratch every time, responders can quickly narrow in on probable causes, understand what changed, and get suggestions for fixes and next steps—along with the reasoning behind them.\n\n**Status Pages**\n\nRootly makes it easy to keep customers and stakeholders updated with public and private status pages, so incident comms don’t become another manual process during a high-stress event.\n\n**Retrospectives**\n\nRootly helps you turn incidents into learning. Create collaborative retros that teams can edit together, draft timelines and summaries faster, and track action items so the work actually gets done—not just written down.\n\n**AI everywhere responders actually feel it**\n\nDuring incidents, the biggest tax is cognitive load: listening, typing, summarizing, updating, and repeating yourself.

Today we’re making FirstQuadrant available for the public! This one’s been a long time in the making.\n\nAnand and I started working on this over 2.5 years ago (before ChatGPT was even released). And to be honest, it took a lot of fucking around and finding out. We spoke to over 300+ founders and heads of sales, rebuilt the product from scratch multiple times, and only after countless conversations did it finally click.\n\nSo today, we’re excited (and a bit nervous) to finally release FirstQuadrant to the public: An AI sales execution platform that helps founders and revenue teams move faster, stay organized, and close more deals, by streamlining the behind-the-scenes sales-work so nothing ever slips through the cracks.\n\nhttps://youtu.be/UG5RfdbKPfI\n\n**The Problem:** \n\nIf you’ve ever looked inside a CRM, you know how chaotic things can get. Deals are scattered, updates are missed, and there’s always this underlying anxiety:
“Did I forget to follow up?”
“Am I waiting on someone to respond?”
“Did I send the right documents?”\n\nMost sales reps are great at conversations and closing — but not at the repetitive, behind-the-scenes tasks before and after meetings. That’s where deals fall through the cracks.\n\n**The Solution:**\n\nFirstQuadrant solves these exact problems.
Our platform analyzes all your sales conversations and uses advanced AI reasoning to understand where each deal stands and what should happen next.\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=90182&key=user_uploads/569815/03bcb01a-7e6c-4c01-bb08-0a37d57a6a3f)\n\nIt automatically manages tasks like:\n\n\\- Following up with leads\n\n\\- Rescheduling missed meetings\n\n\\- Qualifying new inbound leads\n\n\\- Staying in touch with old or inactive contacts\n\n\\- Sending resources or summaries post-call\n\nAll of this is handled in the background, giving your sales team the mental space to focus on what really matters: selling, meeting with customers, and building relationships.\n\nAs a result, your deals move faster, your pipeline gets cleaner, and your reps aren’t constantly playing catch-up.\n\nThey don’t have to keep everything in their heads anymore. FirstQuadrant tracks it all and nudges them at just the right moments.\n\nAnd beyond just managing active deals, it also helps uncover hidden revenue by reactivating older, inactive business relationships (the ones reps never quite get around to following up with). And on the top-of-funnel side, it qualifies new leads that come in, lets you build custom-qualified audiences, and even runs AI-personalized outbound email campaigns at scale. So you’re filling your pipeline with high-quality leads and keeping everything organized and moving forward — all in one place.\n\n**About us**\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=90182&key=user_uploads/569815/59265b17-f07b-4a4f-ad44-1fa30b6f6091)\n\nAnand (CTO/CPO) is a technology entrepreneur, engineer, and designer. Previously, he founded the accessibility tech startup Oswald Labs and the fashion e-commerce company Melangebox at the age of 18.

With DolarApp you can\n\n* Dollarize your savings and earn 4% APY\n* Get your own US bank account details (ACH and Routing Number) and get paid without hassle\n* Spend internationally at the best rates, without hidden fees\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=66120&key=user_uploads/730279/e6f7d8b1-3fb0-4984-82a6-49584c992071)\n\n\\\n**Why did we build DolarApp?**\n\nThe three of us have spent a lot of time in Latin America and made great friends there. Friends who, simply because of where they were born, see their financial freedom limited: hyperinflation, bans on saving in USD, nightmares trying to move money in/out of their country and crazy fees when paying with a card when traveling.\n\nAfter spending a couple of years at Revolut, we learned that Fintech as we know it today is constrained by traditional financial systems, partners, and regulatory frameworks. We realized we could end those constraints by offering people in LatAm a better account for their everyday finances built on stablecoins, with focus on simplicity and away from typical crypto jargon and complexity.\n\n**Key benefits of DolarApp**\n\nWith DolarApp, you will be able to:\n\n* 🇺🇸 Get US bank account details without a Social Security Number\n* 📥 Pay and get paid from local bank accounts, receiving / withdrawing USDc immediately\n* 🌎 Spend internationally without hassle, at the best exchange rates\n* 💲 Dollarize your savings\n* 📈 Earn 4% on your balance annually, paid out second by second\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=66120&key=user_uploads/730279/65678393-8d08-4404-9375-bf98561c98ca)\n\n**The ask**\n\n* If you live in Mexico / Brazil / Colombia / Argentina, join DolarApp [here](https://dolarapp.onelink.me/SVAM/fnlwxe4b)\n* If you have employees/family/friends in those countries who could benefit of having DolarApp, share this link with them!", "url": "https://www.ycombinator.com/launches/HCS-dolarapp-the-global-account-for-people-in-latam", "votes": 25, "created_at": "2022-09-16T23:23:15.886Z" } ] }, { "id": 24005, "name": "Goodkind", "slug": "goodkind", "former_names": [], "small_logo_thumb_url": "https://bookface-images.s3.amazonaws.com/small_logos/19b2d3b1ab50845c2cb174d05f4201d30e698595.png", "website": "https://www.goodkind.com/", "all_locations": "Toronto, ON, Canada", "long_description": "Universities and colleges use Goodkind to build their student communications via sms, video, chat, mail and more.

We help product marketing teams identify competitive moats and weaknesses, marketing teams generate & understanding voice of customer and product teams gauge demand in feature requests based on customer pain points, all automatically from a company’s library of recorded sales and success calls.\n\n### **The Problem:**\n\n⏰ ”I don’t have the time to listen to all of the call recordings sales generates, but I want to & I probably should”\n\n🧐 “How do I learn where to go next? What are customers complaining about? Our sellers don’t know what to share with us and how it connects to our roadmap.”\n\n📉 ”My buyers are spooked with the downturn, but I have no idea where to start looking to figure out what’s going wrong.”\n\nWhile call snippets and anecdotes from individual calls are perfect for deal review, building customer strategy requires you to take account of the entire voice of customer, which may potentially span thousands of individual conversations.\n\nStrategic teams — product, marketing, product marketing — care about the relationships among the discussions and ideas inside these individual calls. There is no way to generate this type of connecting insight without manually slogging through call recordings or interviews.\n\n### **The Buzzle Solution**\n\nCustomer conversations hold the lifeblood of companies, because they are a collection of **ideas** and **relationships** that matter to companies: between question and answer, objection and handler, and product functionality and pain point. Buzzle understands those relationships between and among conversations, and uses that knowledge to automatically detect and highlight the most important trends to product and marketing.\n\nBuzzle can help you hone in on anything from competitors to customer pain points, and help you understand when those topics are coming up in calls (and how they affect your deals)\n\n![](https://s3.us-west-2.amazonaws.com/secure.notion-static.com/8bfae907-f705-49c4-8775-c060c9ae07b6/Untitled.png?X-Amz-Algorithm=AWS4-HMAC-SHA256&X-Amz-Content-Sha256=UNSIGNED-PAYLOAD&X-Amz-Credential=AKIAT73L2G45EIPT3X45%2F20220802%2Fus-west-2%2Fs3%2Faws4_request&X-Amz-Date=20220802T124123Z&X-Amz-Expires=86400&X-Amz-Signature=a174460eb9b0d641b08f269fa9d82367209a3c5a0b788929a2f722c4efbfd4f7&X-Amz-SignedHeaders=host&response-content-disposition=filename%20%3D%22Untitled.png%22&x-id=GetObject)\n\nUnsure of the latest trends?

Yet, a recurring challenge lies in _preserving continuity across a series of images._\n\nLet's say you _generate 5 images featuring the same fictional character_ - each one could render them with a completely different face, ethnicity, clothing, and overall appearance.\n\nThis _lack of consistency_ makes it extremely difficult to use those AI-generated images together cohesively for narratives, marketing campaigns, or any project requiring a unified character identity throughout.\n\n### The solution\n\n[RenderNet](https://rendernet.ai) is a new AI image generation tool with a focus on consistency and control via its features - _Facelock_ and _ControlNet_.\n\n**Facelock** enables a consistent face across all your creations. Whether you start with an AI-generated image or upload a photo, FaceLock maintains that face's integrity in every new image prompted. This ensures unparalleled continuity in your visual narratives.\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=79116&key=user_uploads/218500/fe70e107-5813-4708-bcd7-0c63766b0ef1)\n\n**ControlNet** lets you upload a reference image to guide the pose, composition, and style within your AI-generated visuals.\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=79116&key=user_uploads/218500/68211b19-352c-4315-9a7b-ba5b286e1967)\n\nCombining Facelock and ControlNet transforms your AI image generation process, offering unparalleled consistency and control.

But setting up basic email flows? That still takes 2 weeks.\n\nI've watched this happen countless times. Founders ship their product, then get stuck navigating 15 screens, learning complex automation builders, and spending hours on segmentation logic. Meanwhile, every other business tool has gone conversational.\n\nEmail marketing, however, remained stuck in 2015:  painfully manual despite being the most important channel for early-stage growth.\n\n## **So, we built a solution**\n\nFor years, Mailmodo has been propelling emails into the future. We made them interactive through our drag-and-drop editor, turning inboxes into actionable playgrounds. But we weren't solving the real bottleneck: managing multiple workflows, juggling between tools, and wearing too many hats.\n\nSo we rebuilt email marketing from scratch around one idea: **What if you could run your entire email strategy from a single conversation?**\n\nYou describe what you want: _\"Create a 5-part onboarding series for SaaS trial users.\"_ Mailmodo AI handles strategy, copy, design, automation, segmentation, and analysis, all from one prompt, in one place.\n\nWhat used to take days now happens in minutes.\n\n## **How It Works**\n\nA founder types: _\"Create a re-engagement campaign for users who haven't opened emails in 30 days.\"_\n\nMailmodo AI instantly:\n\n* Segments the audience based on your data\n* Generates ready-to-send email designs\n* Builds the multi-email automation flow with strategic timing\n* Tracks performance and suggests improvements\n\n## **The Mission Remains**\n\nWe've always believed emails should do more, and we made it happen in 2021. Today,  they’re finally easier to create, automate, and analyze as well. \n\nFor those building and running growth engines in 2025, email marketing shouldn't take half ya day. Thankfully, now, it won't.\n\nThat's the modern era of email. That's Mailmodo AI.\\\n\\\n**Ask**\n\n* Please sign up on [mailmodo.com](http://mailmodo.com) and try it for free.

With proliferation of generative AI and everyone being on LinkedIn, the phishing techniques that bad actors are using are growing both in sophistication and scale.\n\n### **Existing phishing simulations are ineffective**\n\nThe world of phishing simulation is dominated by legacy players like KnowBe4, and while their product is the standard of the industry, the product itself is very one-dimensional.\n\n**Problem 1**. Existing phishing simulations are too basic, where you send out one templated email and that’s it.\n\n**Problem 2**. Simulations are not highly-personalized, nor can you train your employees against dangerous social engineering techniques.\n\nThe reality is that this does not prepare your employees against the most dangerous type of phishing attacks: spear phishing. **Vansec’s spear phishing simulations are multi-message, hyper-personalized, and scenario-based where you can choose from common scenarios or customize your own (p.s. we also provide basic phishing simulation too).**\n\n### **Security awareness training is broken**\n\nEmployees playing training videos in the background/minimized while doing something else. This is what security awareness training looks like today.\n\n**Problem 1**. Obviously, this does not improve company’s actual security readiness.\n\n**Problem 2**. It’s a waste of time for the employee.\n\nThe optimal outcome here is for the training to be a) effective i.e. employees actually learn and become security-effective and b) time-efficient i.e. minimal disruption to their workflow.\n\nOur opinion is that learning should always be interactive, not passive. We also believe that getting pulled away from actual work to complete training is _always_ going to be annoying for the employee, no matter how you do it. **That’s why we designed Vansec’s security awareness training to be interactive & bite-sized (p.s. it’s also super personalized).**\n\n### **The ask**\n\n* Check out our [**interactive demo**](https://www.vansec.com/?demo_is_active=true#demo) and/or [**find a time**](https://calendly.com/vansec/vansec-discovery) to get started.\n* If you already have a phishing sim + training vendor but are interested in Vansec, please reach out and we can explore an option for you to use Vansec for free until your existing contract lapses.\n* If you are a security vendor looking for partnerships, let’s chat!", "url": "https://www.ycombinator.com/launches/KzE-vansec-spear-phishing-simulation-security-awareness-training-powered-by-ai", "votes": 16, "created_at": "2024-05-07T14:58:32.978Z" }, { "id": 68603, "title": "PlusPassword - Share passwords without revealing them", "tagline": "No revealing in plaintext, no copying to clipboard", "body": "**tl;dr**: **PlusPassword** is:\n\n* A **free** tool ([**web app**](https://www.pluspassword.com) || Slack app & browser extension [download page](https://www.pluspassword.com/download)).\n* That allows you to **share passwords** with others **without revealing them in plaintext or copying to clipboard**\\*.\n\n…………………………………………………………………………………………………\n\n## **🫵 Do you…**\n\n* Share passwords with others (coworkers / 3rd party vendors) more than once a week?\n* And you know you shouldn’t be sharing them in plaintext over email / text / Slack...\n* But you do so anyways because there isn’t a better alternative?\n* Well, now there is!\n\n## **💡 How does PlusPassword work?**\n\n* **Sharing password**.\n\n 1\\.

We also have an awesome **Slack app** and **browser extension** ([download page](https://www.pluspassword.com/download), also free).\n\n\\\n\\\n\\* With enough malicious intent, one technically can see the plaintext of the password by inspecting the value attribute of the password input field or listening to the POST request when the form is submitted (although most websites only send the hash of the password over the wire). But the thing is, if someone has that much malicious intent to begin with (i.e. going out of their way to dig up the plaintext of the password), you probably shouldn't be sharing the password and giving this person access to your account anyways.\\\n\\*\\* We never store anything on our servers that can ever decrypt your encrypted passwords (zero-knowledge).

You're stuck writing custom codes for each site, battling proxies, and when a site changes its UI, your automation breaks completely. We faced this problem firsthand while building a pricing assistant for online eCommerce companies. We realized we had to scrape 1000s of different eCommerce websites, and existing tools just didn't cut it.\n\n# \n\n# **Our Solution:**\n\n[Anakin’s Product Extractor](https://extractor.anakinai.com/) is a tool that extracts data from any eCommerce product page into JSON, fully automatically. No more custom codes or broken automation! Here’s how it works:\n\n1. Enter the URL of the eCommerce product page\n2. Our tool automatically extracts all the relevant data\n3. Receive the data in a clean, structured JSON format on the webpage and on email\n\nIt takes 1 to 5 minutes to get this data, but we didn’t optimize for this, since our customers told us that instant results were not a necessity. Feel free to leave the webpage if it takes more than a minute, and we will email you the results when done.\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=79308&key=user_uploads/200738/a00259ac-4a72-4089-87dc-4bc100bde694)\n\n# **Our Ask:**\n\nWe’re eager to know if Anakin’s Product Extractor is something that could make your life easier. If you’ve faced similar web scraping challenges, we’d love to do a quick 15-minute call with you! Please reach out to us at [mohit@anakin.company](mailto:mohit@anakin.company) or book a call directly on our [Calendly.](https://calendly.com/d/3gh-pdy-ygc/anakin-s-product-data-extractor) We have also rolled out an API which I hope you will find interesting. Your feedback will be super valuable in shaping the next steps of our product.\n\nWe’ve also built another tool where you can enter the name of an eCommerce website, and it will crawl within the website to fetch all the products and their data for you in a structured format. If you want to try it out, book a demo [here](https://calendly.com/d/3gh-pdy-ygc/anakin-s-product-data-extractor).\n\n\\\nThank you!\\\n[Mohit Prateek](https://linkedin.com/in/mohitprateek)", "url": "https://www.ycombinator.com/launches/KdA-anakin-s-product-extractor-one-api-to-scrape-any-ecommerce-page", "votes": 20, "created_at": "2024-03-12T13:36:53.972Z" } ] }, { "id": 24142, "name": "SnapCalorie", "slug": "snapcalorie", "former_names": [ "CalorieSnap" ], "small_logo_thumb_url": "https://bookface-images.s3.amazonaws.com/small_logos/8fb8d3ff1ae8ec164dd664632cc42c03b043c549.png", "website": "https://www.snapcalorie.com/", "all_locations": "New York City, NY, USA; Washington, DC, USA", "long_description": "SnapCalorie is the world’s first app where you can take a photo of ANY meal and get an accurate calorie count.

For people and AI agents.\n\n**TL;DR**: we built an open-source CLI so people, scripts, and AI agents can drive Dailybot from the terminal. Updates, check-ins, chat messages, forms, and more land where the team already works: Slack, Microsoft Teams, Discord, or Google Chat. **Ask:** ask your agent to try our skill ([**www.dailybot.com/skill.md**](http://www.dailybot.com/skill.md)), run one workflow that matches how your team actually works, and tell us which one helped you move forward today.\n\nDailybot skill: [**https://www.dailybot.com/skills/agent-skill/#install**](https://www.dailybot.com/skills/agent-skill/#install)\n\n**Demo**\n\n[**Dailybot CLI + Agent Skill: Connect your AI coding agent to your team**](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rwopfsPzgSQ)\n\n\\\n**The problem**\n\nTeams are getting real work done with coding agents and scripts. A lot of that work still finishes in a private session. The rest of the team only hears about it if someone rewrites it into Slack or a standup.\n\nSo you get the usual mess: invisible agent work, stale status during a release, approvals bouncing between tools, and check-ins that someone rebuilds by hand for every new project.\n\n**What we shipped**\n\nDailybot CLI. Same Dailybot account and team feed you already use, now from the command line. A few workflows we’re highlighting:\n\n1. Agent update to team chat — done / next / blockers show up in the feed, without a human rewrite\n2. One status message that stays current — one release/status message you keep updating, instead of a pile of outdated posts\n3. Simple approvals in chat — approve/reject in Slack or Teams; your system gets the result and work continues\n\nThere’s more under the hood (forms, check-in creation, agent inbox, activity into reports, kudos, teams, workflows). We’re leading with the ones that produce a visible team result fast.\n\n**Installing the CLI**\n\nEasiest path: pass the skill to your agent and ask it in plain language, e.g. “post a team update that we finished the CLI install path” – [**https://www.dailybot.com/skill.md**](https://www.dailybot.com/skill.md)\n\n**How we got here**\n\nWe’ve been building Dailybot for hybrid teams for a while: async check-ins, reports, and coordination inside chat. As our own team (and customers) started running agents all day, the gap got obvious: agents ship work, humans still retype the update.\n\nThe CLI is our answer to that gap. A bridge into the place the team already coordinates.\n\n**Our ask**\n\n1. Install and try one workflow: [**https://www.dailybot.com/skills/agent-skill/#install**](https://www.dailybot.com/skills/agent-skill/#install)\n2. Reply with the workflow you’d want documented/explored next\n3. If useful, intros to eng teams already running agents in production (contact our founders)\n\nThanks,\\\nMauricio & Sergio", "url": "https://www.ycombinator.com/launches/SSh-dailybot-cli-your-ai-agents-now-report-to-the-team", "votes": 22, "created_at": "2026-08-05T16:22:36.120Z" }, { "id": 70494, "title": "Dailybot+ AI 🧠 The assistant and toolkit for modern teams", "tagline": "Meet Dailybot, a ChatGPT assistant and AI workflow builder for your work chat", "body": "Hi! We are Mauricio Morales and Sergio Florez, the founders of [Dailybot](https://www.dailybot.com/product/ai?utm_source=YCLaunch).\n\nDailybot+ AI is a toolkit for modern work: a ChatGPT Assistant and an AI Workflow automation tool that takes asynchronous work and in-chat collaboration to another level. Compatible with Slack, Microsoft Teams, Google Chat, or Discord.\n\n### **The Problem**\n\nAI is the future, yes. But many people lack the knowledge and resources to effectively incorporate AI into their daily workflow, resulting in missed opportunities for creating impactful use cases.\n\n### **Our Solution**\n\nDailybot provides a chat assistant and platform that simplifies the integration of AI into daily workflows. With our technology, anyone can access an AI assistant (ChatGPT) in the work chat, and can also implement use cases that leverage the power of AI.\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=70494&key=user_uploads/207324/1d5a25dc-bc23-4f36-8315-61af16175cf6)\n\nWe provide key building blocks for you to combine and build multiple use cases on top of your chat workspace.\n\nThe building blocks of Dailybot are: **Check-ins** for stand-ups or recurring surveys; **Forms** for any data collection; **Chat Commands** for in-chat customization; **Workflows** for setting up triggers/actions; and the **AI engine**.\n\nThe Dailybot Workflows provide a Zapier-like interface where users can define triggers and actions (one or multiple) that should run.\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=70494&key=user_uploads/207324/7c533a87-fd19-4145-a9c9-4450a49a0e53)\n\nThe Actions can be AI content generation, sending messages (DMs or channels), sending emails, or triggering other building blocks of Dailybot.\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=70494&key=user_uploads/207324/dc811400-636e-4ffb-8773-aaefa373ddc2)\n\n### **A Few Examples**\n\n* You run a **Daily Stand-up** (built with Check-ins), then, **when a blocker is reported**, an **AI Workflow is run**. It analyzes the blocker and then suggests the employee ideas for solving the issue/bocker.\n* You create a **Form** that will be triggered with the in-chat command named “**product release**”, when the Form is completed an **AI Workflow is run**. It analyzes all the content of the release form **and generates a press release** that is posted into the #releases channel.\n* You create an **anonymous survey to monitor team morale**. The **AI analyzes all the responses** and sends a summary to the head of HR (via email or DM).\n\nWe're passionate about making remote work easier and more efficient and our goal is to make DailyBot the best companion for your team’s work.\n\n**Our Ask:**\n\nWe’d love to hear your ideas on what type of AI-powered daily workflows (in chat) will add value to your team, feel free to share the feedback at [support@dailybot.com](mailto:support@dailybot.com)\n\nWe offer a Free Trial, [**Try Dailybot here**](https://www.dailybot.com/product/ai?utm_source=YCLaunch).", "url": "https://www.ycombinator.com/launches/IL0-dailybot-ai-the-assistant-and-toolkit-for-modern-teams", "votes": 40, "created_at": "2023-03-23T15:06:42.817Z" }, { "id": 64310, "title": "DailyBot 🤖 daily stand-ups, automation and chat assistant for work", "tagline": "⚡️ On a mission to provide one-click workflows for team collaboration and productivity via chat", "body": "👋 Mauricio and Sergio from [@DailyBot](https://www.dailybot.com/) here.\n\n### **TL;DR**\n\nDailyBot is a bunch of useful add-ons for your chat platform. Plug it into your chat and make Async Work a breeze for your team:\n\n* 1- Running async Daily Stand-ups, natively integrated in the chat\n* 2- Cutting unnecessary meetings with more types of recurring check-ins\n* 3- Spreading love and team recognition with DailyBot Kudos\n* 4- Socializing better with watercooler prompts and random 1:1 coffees\n\nAnd developers can build simple in-chat functions for their day-to-day operations, without the need to learn chat-platform-specific APIs.\n\nAvailable on Slack, Discord, MS Teams, G Chat.\n\n### **The problem**\n\nAsync work is the new way of working for many teams. Most teams use chat in any form with tools like Discord, Slack and others. As chat becomes the main app that workers interact with everyday, it becomes necessary to give it more purposes.\n\nNew purposes include workflows like team check-ins, surveys, platform notifications, tools for social engagement, or custom commands to trigger actions.\n\nCreating all this setup is a hustle:\n\n* 1- You have to use many apps, bots, plugins\n* 2- There is a lot of context switching, management overhead, more subscription fees, and more app fatigue for workers\n* 3- Most bots are not designed for protecting security and privacy\n\n# **DailyBot is the solution**\n\nWe are building the first super-bot for your chat. DailyBot comes with a bunch of use cases and features, all-in-one. Some workflows include:\n\n**Check-ins:** track automatically what your team is up to. You can run async and written updates, agile daily stand-ups, retrospectives, or periodic check-ins like 1:1s.\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=64310&key=user_uploads/207324/06136816-f0a8-4324-8e8b-db4bb9a0aa81)\n\n**Kudos**: give kudos and celebrate actions that contribute to better team culture.

Automate vacation requests, recurring feedback forms, and more.\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=64310&key=user_uploads/207324/91614956-ebf2-45e0-b746-678fac7349ec)\n\n**Custom commands**: create commands to increase your team’s productivity in less than a minute. Virtual coffees, birthday reminders, watercoolers, pomodoro timers, your own chat-ops and more.\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=64310&key=user_uploads/207324/974d041a-a4b9-4c5a-a1c0-2b810e40ec29)\n\n### **Security by design and SOC2 compliance**\n\nMost apps take a lot of permissions to access data from your chat. This becomes concerning when you are using dozens of apps to build your team workflows. We are designing DailyBot as a privacy & security first company.\n\nDailyBot only requests the minimal API permissions from your chat. It can only process messages that are directed to the bot.\n\nWe are SOC2 Type II compliant, giving confidence to small and big companies about our work and data management practices.\n\n**Join Us!**\n\nGet started for free.

Eventually, I found a protocol that worked — not just for me, but for dozens of my closest friends. But I couldn't find the time to cook consistently and no meal service met my standards. So I built my own.\n\n### **Problem ❌**\n\nAs a founder, I never had time to cook, so I’d always settle for Doordash meals that made me feel sluggish and low energy. After doing some research, I realized that most prepared meals have:\n\n* **Low quality and processed ingredients** - produce sprayed with synthetic pesticides and sauces filled with processed ingredients and artificial emulsifiers (neurotoxins that can harm brain function over time)\n* **Unhealthy oils** - full of low-quality vegetable and seed oils, which throw off your Omega 6 to Omega 3 ratio (key to optimal cellular and brain function)\n* **Little to no fiber and protein** – dietary fiber and lean muscle mass are both huge components to regulating blood sugar (critical to sustaining energy levels)\n* **Packaging full of microplastics -** heating food in plastic containers leeches toxic chemicals and disrupts hormones\n\nAfter realizing that the way I eat can have a huge effect on my productivity levels, I started trying out “healthy” meal delivery services. Most tasted bad and claimed to be healthy, but after digging deeper, I realized it was mostly BS marketing with no real nutrition standards to back them up.\n\nThe Blueprint service appeared to be the best option, but after doing more research, I found that they just outsourced their food production to a company that uses seed oils and low-quality ingredients.\n\nEvery service I tried was compromised in some way. **I couldn’t find any options that hit all of the science-based health standards that I cared about and helped me perform my best.**\n\n---\n\n### **Solution 💡**\n\nI spent a long time doing research (and crunching studies with chatGPT) to come up with a strict list of rules for the food that I wanted to eat. Then, I found an experienced chef with over 20 years of fine dining experience and gave him a carefully curated list of approved ingredients for each meal.\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=88937&key=user_uploads/714052/e2221663-6c7b-4412-91ff-e4f7240f6c40)\n\nThe meals that he created were delicious, and after a few weeks, I started noticing I felt different. **I had more energy throughout the day, felt much less fatigue after a long day of work, and started sleeping better.**\n\nMy friends asked to join in and get meals from my chef, and many began to notice the same benefits that I did. That’s when I decided to offer this as a service to everyone.\n\n### **Our Ask ❤️**\n\nWe want Locale to be the best delivery service for people who care about their mental performance and long-term health.\n\n* **Have you found any nutritional hacks that have helped you be more productive?** Tell us what worked (or didn't).

We both grew up in the Bay Area and love good food & supporting local restaurants!\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=73795&key=user_uploads/714052/de350a63-3fbb-475f-a8d5-0732dd859bcb)\n\n_Chris (left) and Jonny (right)._\n\n### **😡 The problem**\n\nWhen we started working in person this year we tried dozens of lunch services and couldn't find a good option for startups with <20 employees\n\n* It’s a pain to coordinate daily orders and daily deliveries for employee lunches\n* Food delivery is expensive and it’s hard to find one restaurant that everyone likes\n* Most small startups are below the order minimum for catering services\n\n### **😋 Our solution**\n\nLocale partners with top local restaurants to offer heat-and-eat meals that last all week in your office fridge. Your employees place one group order by Friday for all their lunches for the following week and they arrive Monday morning. Employees can grab them and quickly reheat whenever they’re hungry.\n\n### **⚙️ How does it work?**\n\n1. Employees choose from 100+ prepared meals from 20+ top restaurants. All meals are $11 or less.\n2. Since orders are pre-scheduled, we're able to place bulk orders days ahead of pickup with restaurants, saving them time and money. We then pass along savings to you.\n3. Meals from multiple restaurants are **delivered together** and arrive refrigerated. Meals are sealed to extend their shelf life. All meals are ready in 2 steps or less.\n\n### **🙏🏻 Ask/Give**\n\nWe’re offering a **week of free lunches** to Bay Area-based YC startups to get your feedback and improve the service.\n\nIf you’re interested, take 1 min to fill out [**this form**](https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSckO2DlHw7nZ7D7CprRgDHYIdutqipfRj8V9tdIa4GXg2h6Uw/viewform) and I’ll reach out ASAP to send you a link that your employees can use to order.", "url": "https://www.ycombinator.com/launches/JCF-locale-office-lunches-designed-for-startups", "votes": 22, "created_at": "2023-08-04T14:46:38.610Z" }, { "id": 71813, "title": "Locale: We’re making restaurant delivery affordable", "tagline": "A marketplace for prepared meals from top restaurants", "body": "### **TL;DR**\n\nStop overpaying for restaurant delivery.

Tarsal lets you filter + route logs to any of our supported destinations, including major SIEMs, Amazon S3, or a modern data warehouse like Snowflake, BigQuery, or Databricks.\n\n**Tarsal lets you write real-time detections as code.** Write expressive and flexible detections in Python for needs specific to your enterprise. Benefit from pre-built detections that are mapped to specific threats.\n\n**We alert you if anything breaks in your log ingestion.** Rest assured that you’re collecting the data you’d need during an incident. Set up Slack or PagerDuty alerts if any of your logs stop syncing over.\n\n![](https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/s_iuAJD6ZiI_jJBjGYE8ndHSN0grI-BEHRg_unkfAwwFlRvqhiWxfDPsNQ14mUlakvOPbedvfdc_ITMJfFlT3KdMUYolC43L-wwZx39-LbomTRhIstS4EofeIhj2WWBFLqCZEnaoCwbV9DL9_0FP-zKCbw=nw)\n\n### **🎉 Interested?**\n\nEmail us at [founders@tarsal.co](mailto:founders@tarsal.co) and we’ll give you a link to sign up.

With AI agents becoming mainstream, we need automation that's as adaptive as they are, and doesn’t break every time a css class changes.\n\nWith HyperAgent, we’re adding AI to your existing toolkit, wrapping playwright in simple, natural language commands that just work. So you can have the best of both worlds - keep what you love about playwright and automate the rest with AI.\n\n**HyperAgent Quickstart**\n\nTo use HyperAgent on an existing page, you can simply call [**page.ai**](http://page.ai):\n\n```\nawait page.ai(\"Find a route from Miami to New Orleans, and provide the detailed route information.\")\n```\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=89908&key=user_uploads/556017/f6d70ca6-70cf-4dff-a206-9263341cd681)\n\nThis will go to google maps, enter in the origin and destination, then return the route back.\n\nTo extract information from a page, call **page.extract:**\n\n```\nawait page.extract(“find the major cities that this path goes through\")\n```\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=89908&key=user_uploads/556017/2ca8cdba-b651-44e4-af20-9bdc7d1e0393)\n\n**Built-in Stealth Mode**\n\nHyperAgent comes with patches for stealth browsing so you don’t have to worry about getting blocked. For maximum stealth, use Hyperbrowser - it’s free to start.\n\n**Infinitely Extensible with MCP servers**\n\nWant to give HyperAgent access to custom tools or integrate with other apps? HyperAgent is an MCP client and offers infinite extensibility with any MCP server.\n\n**Scale to 100s of Concurrent Agents**\n\nUsing HyperAgent on HyperBrowser you can scale to 100s of concurrent agent runs in seconds.

Simply open an app, pass biometrics, and you’re in, yet the lack of biometric availability on many computers makes web authentication an incredible pain. It’s tedious and unsecure. \n\nWhether login entails remembering a password, entering a code, clicking an email link, or using an authenticator app, each of these solutions creates more friction than biometrics while also leaving users with reduced security. \n\nI always have my phone with me, it’s next to my computer, why can’t I extend the trust that exists on mobile biometrics to web?\n\n### **Our Solution**\n\nExtend the trust that exists with mobile biometrics to web with Keyri QR authentication. Users simply scan a QR code on your login page with their smartphone, are automatically redirected to your mobile app, and pass biometrics within your app to log into your webpage. \n\nIt’s incredibly simple biometric-based authentication paired with our advanced device intelligence and risk analytics to create the most robust phishing-resistant MFA.\n\n\n\n### **Asks**\n\nCheck it out.

At that time, we all mainly used landline phones to communicate. This is when I realized that young people started connecting through the Internet, and I started thinking about how I should use this trend—to provide Internet access to people using the corner shop network.\n\nSo, we built the internet network (ORCA Wireless) from scratch and provided service to 250k neighbors of corner shops.\n\n### 🥅 What Pideaky is\n\nAt Pideaky, we help offline LatAm SMBs manage and accelerate their cash flow through inventory-based financing and payments/collection/reconciliation solutions.\n\nIn 2021, we started by providing point-of-sale solutions to corner shops in Mexico.\n\n**Our Customers:**\n\nCorner shops that sell groceries and lack financial records, as well as their suppliers.\n\n**The Problem:** Over time, we discovered that access to capital was the biggest challenge for these corner shops.\n\n**The Solution:** Inventory-based lending powered by our proprietary AI\n\n**Market Size:** Businesses like these account for almost $70B/year in gross merchandise value.\n\n**Tech stack:** We build and train an AI tool that Translates photos and videos into credit scores and risk models using AI and computer vision (with 90% accuracy today). We also developed the best-in-class automated collection and reconciliation tools to collect our loans.\n\n**New Opportunity:** These tools are helping us to acquire Corner shop suppliers as customers; **we help them manage and collect their invoices in minutes, not days,** and they allow us to increase the network of Corner shops.\n\n**Our Impact:** More than 14,000 loans were disbursed, and more than 6K corner shops served.\n\n**Our Backers:**\n\nWe’re backed by Silicon Valley VCs (Wayfinder, Goodwater) and are actively hiring and expanding across Mexico/LatAm.

This ranges from missing a regular dentist check to missing an expensive MRI scan. With increasing pressure to improve access to care in developing countries, optimizing communication and coordination with patients is a key task to achieve. This is a massive problem especially in places where most people don't know how to effectively use self-service mediums (or are too busy to use them).\r\n \r\nWe bootstrapped the company and we are profitable. As of August 2021 we have $97K in monthly revenue from 15 clients with a CMRG of 20% in the last year. We have 100% logo retention and we grow with our clients. We are currently coordinating over 600,000 medical appointments every month, just in Chile.\r\n\r\nThis problem represents a $3.5B market opportunity in Latin America only. Latin America has 650M people, each one having an average of 3 medical consultations per year. We charge for every time we effectively communicate with a patient. We plan to handle several coordination interactions with every patient for each consultation, which considers a roadmap of scheduling, confirming, booking, reimbursements, payments, among others.\r\n\r\nWe are a team mixing strong knowledge about the healthcare industry with deep technical skills. Felipe (CEO) is a former dentist that has led deep changes in healthcare payments in Chile. Mauricio (CTO) and Jorge (R&D), both PhD in Computer Science, led the creation of the most advanced Spanish Language Neural Network used daily by scientists and practitioners in LatAm (BETO: Spanish BERT).\r\n\r\nIn a weekend project, Mauricio and Jorge automated the communication with students attending a summer school obtaining impressive engagement. Felipe was struggling with contacting his patients to coordinate appointments, and saw a big opportunity in this technology.

That's the entire industry's relationship with lab data, and it hasn't meaningfully changed in a decade.\n\n## **The part everyone stops short of**\n\nMost labs eventually solve the easy problem: getting a file off an instrument and into some kind of system of record. That's plumbing, and plumbing gets built. What almost nobody automates is the step after deciding whether a result is even valid.\n\nDoes it clear the CV threshold?\n\nIs this well too confluent to trust (TNTC)?\n\nWhat's the right baseline to compare against? Is this a Positive, a Negative, or a QC Fail?\n\nThat judgment still lives in someone's head and someone's spreadsheet, redone by hand, every single run.\n\nWe think that's the real bottleneck in lab data - not moving files around, but making trustworthy calls on what's inside them, fast enough to keep up with how fast science actually moves.\n\n## **The infrastructure that makes this possible: GLUE**\n\nNone of this works without a real connectivity layer underneath it, so we built one. [Scispot GLUE](https://www.scispot.com/glue) is our API-first integration backbone with hundreds of connectors, native HL7/ASTM support, and webhooks — that plugs into instruments, LIMS-like entities, and external systems without custom code for every new device.\n\nGLUE is the nervous system; Smart Actions are the brain sitting on top of it, deciding what every signal actually means.\n\nThat distinction matters. A lot of \"lab automation\" stops at GLUE's job: get the file, map the fields, store the record. We built Smart Actions specifically because moving the data was never the finish line — it was the prerequisite.\n\n## **What we actually built**\n\n[Smart Actions](https://www.scispot.com/smart-actions) are AI-agent workflows inside Scispot that don't stop at moving data - they interpret it.\n\nA Smart Action parses a raw instrument export, maps every well to the right sample and treatment condition, applies your lab's QC rules automatically (CV thresholds, LLOQ cutoffs, TNTC handling), computes the real statistics — averages, fold change against baseline — and writes the _decision_, not just the number, straight into your Labsheets.\n\nThe ELISpot plate our analyst stayed up for?\n\nToday that run finishes, and by the time she opens her laptop, the QC-gated summary is already sitting in the [Scispot Labsheet](https://www.scispot.com/labsheets) - Positive, Negative, Indeterminate, or QC Fail, each one traceable back to exactly why. Not a spreadsheet she has to trust blindly. A decision she can audit in one click.\n\n## **Why this is a bigger bet than \"faster data transport\"**\n\nMoving data fast, which is what GLUE gives you, is table stakes. The hard, valuable problem is the judgment layer on top of it is this result real, does it pass QC, what does it mean for the next experiment. That's what Smart Actions own, permanently, for every run, not just the one someone remembered to check carefully.\n\nSmart Actions are composable, build one for ELISpot, reuse the same pattern for a plate-reader screen routing hits into follow-up assays, chain them together across protocols, all running on top of GLUE's connectivity. And they're callable by [Scibot Omega](https://www.scispot.com/product-releases/scibot-omega), our AI orchestrator, so a scientist can just say \"clean this run, QC it, summarize it for the sponsor\" and the right Smart Actions execute end to end.\n\n## **Why we're telling you this now**\n\nWe've launched Scispot on YC before as a platform, and GLUE as our connectivity layer.\n\nThis time we wanted to talk about the layer built on top of it that our customers actually thank us for - the layer that means their best analyst stops being a human QC script running at midnight, and starts being a scientist again.\n\nIf you've ever stared at a spreadsheet at 11pm trying to figure out why a result doesn't add up, we built this for you.\n\n👉 **scispot.com/demo**\n\n", "url": "https://www.ycombinator.com/launches/S4m-scispot-smart-actions", "votes": 14, "created_at": "2026-07-27T23:39:25.957Z" }, { "id": 101995, "title": "Scispot MCP 🧠 Run Claude inside your governed lifescience lab data", "tagline": "27 MCP tools that let Claude, Cursor, and ChatGPT act on samples, lineage, and lab workflows with full RBAC and audit.", "body": "![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=101995&key=user_uploads/697526/0294af99-be72-4dcf-8f4f-4ff0d65f9e6f)\n\n📝 **TL;DR**\n\nScispot is the governed operating system for sample-centric labs. We just shipped an MCP server with 27 tools so Claude, Cursor, Claude Code, and ChatGPT can act directly on your live lab data with the same role permissions and audit trail as a human in the UI.\n\nHey everyone 👋\n\nI'm Satya, co-founder of [**Scispot**](https://scispot.com/). Today we're launching the **Scispot MCP Server**, the first MCP server built for the governed lab operating system that scaling biotech, diagnostics, and regulated CROs run on.\n\n🎯 **The problem**\n\nLabs that are growing past 20–500 people don't have an \"ELN or LIMS problem\"; they have a fragmentation problem. Samples live in one system, results in another, instruments in a third, methods in Google Docs, and the answer to \"which lot did this come from\" lives in a person's head.\n\nThat fragmentation has three consequences AI makes worse, not better:\n\n* **Shadow workflows.** Scientists copy sample data into Claude, ask it to find anomalies, paste the answer back, and (hopefully) update inventory. QA can't audit it.\n* **Governance leaks.** A general-purpose agent has no idea a CRO coordinator shouldn't see another sponsor's samples, or that a clinical reviewer's role limits what they can edit.\n* **AI initiatives stall.** Leadership wants AI outcomes. The data foundation isn't ready. CAP/CLIA and GxP teams say no until it is.\n\n📈 **Scispot's solution**\n\nWe built Scispot as the **governed operating system for sample-centric labs**: sample-first data model, RBAC, audit, approvals, and a single API surface across every workflow a lab actually runs. The MCP server makes that operating system addressable by any agent:\n\n* **27 tools** spanning sample search and lineage, structured tables, methods and protocols, freezer and inventory state, lab flows, and image retrieval — all consistent under one auth and audit model.\n* **RBAC at the tool layer.** Every call resolves the calling user's role. A CRO coordinator can't see another sponsor's samples through the agent. **This is what unblocks regulated buyers.**\n* **Audit + approvals inherited.** Every MCP action lands in the same activity stream as a UI action, with actor, timestamp, and diff. Sensitive writes route through the same approval steps. The agent isn't a back door for CAP/CLIA or GxP.\n* **OAuth 2.0 + PKCE** on top of a Scispot. Compatible with Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Claude Web, Perplexity, Cursor, and ChatGPT.\n* **One system, not five.** Most customers retire 3–5 disconnected tools (LIMS, ELN, freezer, inventory, spreadsheets) on the way in. MCP gets one auth model, not five integrations.\n\n🚀 **Traction**\n\n* **Live in production** with 100+ labs\n* **27 production tools** shipped, with usage metering\n\n🙋 **What customers are doing with it**\n\n* **pharma R&D:** retiring a GraphPad + Claude + manual reporting stack. Their go-to prompt: _\"summarize all experiments linked to samples where Reagent Lot is XX-007.\"_ Answered against governed data, not a stale CSV.\n* **process development labs (e.g. fermentation) :** asking Claude to walk sample lineage and storage state: \"which box, which rack, which plate, which lineage\" without learning the Scispot menu hierarchy.\n* **translational teams:** wiring LaTeX-based methods writing to live experiments, so the methods section assembles itself from the actual run record. The next reader is a sponsor or regulator.\n* **AI/ML & Informatics teams:** treating MCP as the programmatic spine of an ML pipeline instead of maintaining yet another export script. Sample-first data model, no separate warehouse to keep in sync.\n\n📚 **Backstory**\n\nWe started Scispot because we watched scaling biotechs, molecular diagnostics labs, and regulated CROs lose weeks to fragmentation; every minute saved on the bench got eaten back at the spreadsheet. When MCP shipped, the standard finally let us put AI inside the governed system instead of beside it. We shipped MCP to the first cohort in March 2026.\n\n🚀 **Our ask**\n\n1. **If you run a sample-centric lab** — scaling biotech, molecular diagnostics, or regulated CRO — try the MCP server.

This is [Satya](https://www.linkedin.com/in/satyaravisingh/) & [Guru](https://www.linkedin.com/in/iamguru/) from Scispot. We just launched [Scispot GLUE Robo](https://www.scispot.com/blog/glue-robo-automation-transforming-lab-efficiency) - lab automation layer that seamlessly connects high throughput plate movements with Scispot LIMS.\n\nTL;DR: GLUE Robo connects lab instruments, robots, and data systems so results flow into [Scispot labsheets](https://www.scispot.com/labsheets) and databases in real time. No manual copy‑paste. No brittle scripts. Researchers get cleaner data. Heads of Data get lineage and control. Teams get time back.\n\n🚨**The problem:**\n\nModern labs live between hardware, software, and complex protocols. Manual steps slow them down. Data gets siloed. Errors creep in.\n\nTake an example of a high throughput lab tracking plate movements.\n\nHigh throughput plate movements refers to the challenge of verifying and tracking the large volume of rapid, automated operations occurring in laboratory environments. When plates are moved frequently and at scale, it becomes difficult to maintain a consistently accurate record of each transaction, ensure none are missed or duplicated, and verify that every action is valid for downstream lab and data processes.\n\n💡**The solution:**\n\nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=osUdOo5COJQ\n\nScispot webhooks (offered by GLUE Robo) are essential in this context because they capture real-time, reliable updates for every eligible system call from the robot to Scispot. This enables seamless integration, error-catching, and audibility across platforms, ensuring data integrity and full traceability as throughput increases. Here are the key highlights of Glue Robo:\n\n* **Event‑Driven Automation.** GLUE Robo listens for lab events—plate movement, data capture, file drops, status changes—and reacts instantly.\n* **Instrument‑Agnostic.** Works with leading robots and instruments (e.g., Automata, Hamilton, and more). Connect once. Scale as you add hardware.\n* **No‑Code Workflows.** Build rules that match protocols, QC gates, or regulatory steps. Reconfigure as methods evolve.\n* **Auditable by Default.** Every action is logged. You get traceability, reproducibility, and peace of mind.\n* **Built for Throughput.** Designed to keep pace with overnight screens and multi‑run genomics pipelines.\n\n⚡**Impact:**\\\nScispot provides high throughput labs with real-time data synchronization, automation, and auditability for operations, ensuring accurate tracking and seamless integration across lab systems.\n\n**🤝 Our Ask:**\n\nWe’re looking to connect with high throughput labs who currently leverage one or all of the following at scale:\n\n* Automata LINQ\n* Hamilton STAR\n* qPCR systems\n* Plate readers\n\nScispot provides webhooks to seamlessly capture events from such systems so you can connect your computational workflows with wet lab.\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=95334&key=user_uploads/697526/5a103264-9e5d-46d5-992e-697f2b67b700)\n\n", "url": "https://www.ycombinator.com/launches/One-glue-robo-lab-automation-layer-for-robots-instruments", "votes": 24, "created_at": "2025-11-11T14:56:11.717Z" }, { "id": 85309, "title": "Plato - Scispot's multi-well plate agent", "tagline": "Connect your plate readers, Tecan, Hamilton using Scispot’s AI agent.", "body": "Scispot is launching the world’s first agent for multi-well plates called Plato.\n\n**Plato has the wisdom of plate automation not philosophy.**\n\nA multi-well plate is basically a lab tool with multiple tiny \"wells\" or slots in one single tray. Each well can hold a separate sample, letting you run lots of tests at once—ideal for experiments like drug screening or diagnostics. It’s like having a mini grid of test tubes all in one place, so you can work faster and more efficiently.\n\n**Plato is the agent that helps wet lab scientists design, load, integrate and run their multi-well plates using natural language.** It understands the input and output from various plate readers such as **BMG Clariostar** for your assays. It also seamlessly integrates with **Tecan** and **Hamilton** for dilution.\n\nWhile designing your experiments, scientists can use Plato to create controls— standards for their assays— using AI.\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=85309&key=user_uploads/697526/7c482e2c-a2a5-4cb1-b775-4f670c58c10c)\n\n### **Problem**\n\nA wet lab scientist typically follows the journey of\n\n* Designing a plate in excel\n* Enter sample details such as IDs, concentration, standards and controls\n* Prepare samples in plate according to layout and execute experiment\n* Get the readings\n* Add the raw data back to their ELN or LIMS system\n* Cross-check data for errors and manually correct if needed\n\nThis process is not only time consuming, but labor intensive and leaves room for a lot of errors. It also doesn’t create a complete chain of custody for your plate data. You end up compromising your data integrity.\n\n**In a high throughput lab you cannot follow this process for 100s of plates!**\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=85309&key=user_uploads/697526/e90e3342-c5e5-4eb7-b5bb-ad4ce911a5ab)\n\n### **Solution**\n\nWith Scispot’s AI-powered Plato, the process finally shifts to where it should be: automated. Plate configurations happen at the click of a button, data flows directly into Scispot (ELN/LIMS), and error-checking is automatic. The time saved here isn’t just convenient; it maintains the complete chain of custody. You can also create plates in bulk using Plato while automating the logistics of moving, and transferring data.\n\nOnce you have this data in one place called Scispot Labsheets (Scispot data lake), you can then easily run regression or analytics.\n\nAs a result, you save a LOT of time while being compliant with 21 CFR Part 11 compliance controls.\n\n\n\n### **Our Ask**\n\n* If you run a Biotech lab, join us for the official launch of Plato this Thursday, 7th November 2024.

Process an increasing volume of transactions, and\n2. Implement competitive payment scenarios, which can become increasingly complex, e.g. complex commission models, improved time-to-money and creative payout schedules, embedded fractional ownership of various investment assets, omnibus accounts and the likes.\n\nEngineering teams spend valuable time building themselves these money flows and the way they are broken down; then making them evolve according to the development and the strategy of the company. Additionally, tracking and reconciliating these flows from pay-ins to payouts quickly upgrades itself from an small annoyance to a _did-we-lost-10millions-type-of-problem™️_\n\nFormance is tackling this particular segment in the payment value chain which is still painful for engineering teams, yet critical: the break-down and tracking of money between inflows and outflows.\n\n## **The solution**\n\n**✌️ Check out our main Github repository here:** [**https://github.com/formancehq/stack**](https://github.com/numary/ledger\\*\\*)\n\nFormance solution is based on four products designed to **improve your economics, save time and limit costly errors:**\n\n**1/ A simple and open-source programming language for money**: designed for engineering and payments teams, this low-code language enables the creation of reliable and unique payment scenarios in a few hours, rather than days, without any particular technical expertise related to payments;\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=64456&key=user_uploads/144945/882aa901-0827-41c2-9dfc-4fecdbe29c8d)\n\n**2/ Pre-built and extendable use-case templates**: these templates allow to quickly implement new business strategies or product features, check them out here: \n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=64456&key=user_uploads/144945/731eced2-67fb-4c65-8762-26d0214a61d3)\n\n**3/ An open-source financial ledger**: working in tandem with our language and designed for reliability, this immutable system-of-record enables the track financial flows that move value through various merchants, intermediaries, parties and the extraction of data for business analysis and decision-making\n\n**4/ Real-time transaction tracking tools**: designed for finance and operations teams, these tools enable the reconciliation of pay-ins and payouts, and the identification of issues related to transactions.\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=64456&key=user_uploads/144945/037dee85-7949-4b3a-85bd-3156b0285bdf)\n\nWe believe that open-source and low-code go hand-in-hand with the diversity of money flows, payment

In a few minutes, you can hook up your apps and have them 2-way syncing in real-time.\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=68930&key=user_uploads/689259/05a48b3c-e3a4-49cc-870c-9b8564835d98)\n\n### **Use cases: pSEO, internal tools, + much more**\n\nWhalesync works by connecting different tools, so there are a TON of different things you can do. A few of the more popular use cases:\n\n* 🔎 Launch thousands of **programmatic SEO pages** (Airtable x Webflow)\n* ⚒️ Build an **internal tool** on top of your production database (Postgres x Notion)\n* 💻 Create a scalable **no-code app** (Bubble x Airtable)\n* 🧑 Personalize hundreds of tier-1 **ABM landing pages** (Airtable x Webflow)\n* 📝 Manage your **blog** (Notion x Webflow)\n\n### **How it works**\n\n1. Pick the tools you want to sync\n2. Tell Whalesync how the data maps\n3. Turn on sync, we do the rest ✅\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=68930&key=user_uploads/689259/c61a0dd3-5b9f-4be0-aef9-14310076108c)\n\n### **🙏 Asks**\n\n* [Try it out](https://www.whalesync.com/airtable-webflow/choose-connectors) and let us know what you think! Support is great, but feedback is even better as it helps us decide what to build next.\n* Also, let us know if you have any [requests for new connectors](https://jjm01gwpyzn.typeform.com/to/lij7aJhR)!

Miniloop: an AI workforce platform that helps startups run GTM without hiring a full GTM team.\n\n### TL;DR\n\n**Miniloop lets startups hire AI GTM teammates that run outbound, follow up with leads, create content, qualify signups, update CRM/spreadsheets, and execute repetitive workflows across tools like Gmail, Apollo, HubSpot, Google Sheets, Slack, and LinkedIn.**\n\nMost early-stage founders know they should be doing outbound, following up with leads, writing content, qualifying signups, updating spreadsheets, and keeping prospects warm.\n\nThe problem is that all of this work is repetitive, tool-heavy, and easy to drop when you’re also building product and talking to customers.\n\nMiniloop lets you hire AI agents that learn your business, connect to your tools, and run those workflows continuously.\n\nThe goal: help founders and small teams run GTM consistently without hiring more people.\n\n### Launch video\n\n\n\n### What Miniloop does\n\nMiniloop agents can run GTM workflows like:\n\n* finding and enriching leads\n* writing and sending personalized outbound\n* following up with signups\n* qualifying prospects\n* creating blog and SEO content\n* updating spreadsheets and CRMs\n* sending internal reports and alerts\n\nThey work across tools like Apollo, Gmail, HubSpot, Google Sheets, LinkedIn, Slack, and more.\n\nThe goal is simple: give founders and small GTM teams the output of extra teammates without adding headcount.\n\nWe’ve been using Miniloop internally for our own GTM, including blog generation, lead collection, and signup follow-up — workflows that map directly to your current dogfooding setup.\n\n### Why now\n\nEarly-stage startups used to scale GTM by hiring more people.\n\nNow the best teams can stay smaller longer.\n\nInstead of duct-taping together brittle automations, Miniloop gives you agents that understand context, run multi-step workflows, and ask for help only when needed.\n\n### Who it’s for\n\nMiniloop is especially useful if you’re:\n\n* a founder doing marketing / gtm work yourself\n* a small team without dedicated GTM headcount\n* running outbound, content, lead routing, or follow-up manually\n* spending too much time moving data between tools\n\n### Ask\n\nWe’re working closely with YC companies and doing hands-on workflow setup for early users.\n\nIf you’re running GTM or ops and want help

Indy is a free, AI-powered ADHD support app designed to help people stay oriented to what matters and translate that clarity into daily action, without relying on productivity pressure or generic AI advice._\n\n_—_\n\nHi YC family! 👋\n\nWe’re Chris & Vikram, and we’re building Shimmer. Our mission is for every individual with ADHD to reach their full potential, their way. Shimmer began after I (Chris) was diagnosed with ADHD and struggled to access affordable, high-quality behavioral support. Since then, we’ve grown into the #1 ADHD coaching platform recommended by clinicians across North America.\n\nAs large language models became viable, we saw a clear opportunity. ADHD isn’t a problem of knowledge, it’s a problem of continuity. Insight is available, but support disappears between moments. AI, for the first time, makes it possible to provide consistent, personalized scaffolding in the flow of daily life.\n\nThat opportunity is what led us to build Indy.\n\n### **❌ The Challenge**\n\nAcross tens of thousands of ADHD coaching sessions, one pattern shows up again and again.\n\nBreakthroughs don’t fail because people forget what they learned. They fail because daily life takes over.\n\nPeople leave a session with clarity about what matters and where they want to go. Then the week happens. Context shifts. Energy fluctuates. Emotions spike. Urgency crowds out direction.\n\nFor ADHDers, this breakdown is predictable:\n\n1. **🧠 Executive function is state-dependent**: What feels obvious in one moment is inaccessible in another. Memory, motivation, and prioritization fluctuate with energy and emotion.\n2. **🕳 The future fades quickly**: When goals are not emotionally present, the present always wins. ADHD brains respond to what feels salient now.\n3. **⏳ Support is episodic and constrained by human capacity**: Coaching, therapy, etc. work primarily during sessions, but disappear when real decisions are being made.\n\nExisting tools don’t address this well. General AI gives answers. Productivity apps manage tasks. Neither maintains orientation or adapts as conditions change.\n\n### **✨ The AI Opportunity**\n\nAI changes what’s possible here.\n\nFor the first time, software can:\n\n* Hold personal context over time\n* Reflect patterns back to users\n* Adapt support based on energy, emotion, and behavior\n* Provide lightweight scaffolding between human interactions\n\nThis is especially powerful for ADHD, where the problem isn’t knowing what to do, but staying connected to why and when to do it.\n\n### **✨ The Solution**\n\nIndy is a daily AI-powered ADHD support system designed to help people stay oriented to what matters and translate that clarity into everyday action.\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=96820&key=user_uploads/608519/4f19593d-f653-4231-9af2-dec8ee54418c)\n\nHere’s how it works:\n\n1. **Future mapping**: Users map key moments from their past, present, and future to anchor what they care about and where they’re headed.\n\n ![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=96820&key=user_uploads/608519/ca3c694c-2405-4ab4-a880-4248696f0539)\n\n2. **Daily and weekly check-ins**: Indy helps users set lightweight intentions, anticipate obstacles, and reflect without pressure.\n\n ![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=96820&key=user_uploads/608519/01183d22-d2fc-4650-a66e-74ae3a1d3886)\n\n3. **Insights over time**: Indy turns check-ins into pattern visibility. Users start to see what drains them, what helps, where momentum shows up, and what keeps derailing progress, so they can adjust earlier.\n\n ![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=96820&key=user_uploads/608519/00ed985f-2290-48c7-9c15-9ae24d10e742)\n\n4. **Problem-solving when stuck**: When friction shows up, Indy uses science-backed frameworks to help users identify what’s actually blocking progress and choose a small next step.\n\n ![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=96820&key=user_uploads/608519/9faff07a-2505-4abb-9067-17aee2dbc862)\n\n5. **Progress made visible**: Wins, effort, and insights are tracked so progress doesn’t disappear just because it wasn’t perfect.\n\n ![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=96820&key=user_uploads/608519/7bbaa3f4-f6a9-4c49-9161-cdd848e8de8a)\n\n\nAI gives us a chance to rethink how behavioral support works for ADHD.

Our mission is for every individual with ADHD to reach their full potential, _their way_. Shimmer ADHD Coaching was born in 2022 after I (Chris) was diagnosed with ADHD and was frustrated with the lack of affordable, quality behavioral coaching solutions. Since then, we’ve grown tremendously, building the #1 ADHD Coaching Platform recommended by HCPs, therapists, and psychiatrists across North America.\n\n\n\n### **❌ The Challenge**\n\nAt Shimmer, we’ve run over 45,000 ADHD coaching sessions. Each session is packed with “aha” moments—but as soon as they’re over, life pulls you in a million directions and those insights slip away. To add to this, the week is often lost from lack of accountability and members come into sessions scrambling to remember the past week. Overall, for people with ADHD, it’s hard to _consistently_ hold onto what you learn, recognize bigger patterns, or stay on track day to day. Why?\n\n1. 🚧 **Our working memory challenges makes it hard to remember sessions**. Even the best breakthroughs vanish without a simple way to capture and revisit them.\n2. 👹 **We’re focused on the present & don’t always see the bigger picture (or future)**. Without a clear record, it’s tough to connect recurring themes or measure real progress.\n3. 🍬 **We lose momentum between sessions**. A coach can’t be there 24/7—and ADHD brains need constant nudges to stay motivated.\n\n### **✨ The Solution**\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=87083&key=user_uploads/608519/53f337be-252d-4135-9f36-9b78d22d1d5b)\n\n**Shimmer 2.0** is our new AI-powered “second brain,” doing what ADHD brains were never designed to do. Shimmer 2.0 automatically captures and organizes all your coaching insights, so you can finally spot the patterns, stay accountable, and turn each breakthrough into real-world action—even when your coach isn’t around. Here’s a bit on how it works:\n\n1. **AI-Powered Session Summaries:** Shimmer 2.0’s AI automatically recaps each session’s main points and action items, so you can easily revisit breakthroughs without piecing together scattered notes.\n\n ![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=87083&key=user_uploads/608519/57f4600f-1280-4249-842b-1ee892aaa488)\n\n2. **Action Insights & Progress Tracking:** Visually map out your weekly actions, highlight patterns, and keep yourself accountable.\n\n ![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=87083&key=user_uploads/608519/367d604b-cd7d-465d-ae02-9fef4addd3fa)\n\n3. **History (Second Brain):** View your entire journey in one place & instantly look up specific topics from past sessions and spot recurring themes at a glance.\n\n ![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=87083&key=user_uploads/608519/ac9d5072-a251-4a37-8c1e-ae4dc05890ae)\n\n4. **Smart Search:** Lastly, my personal favorite—Ask your “second brain” the hard questions, like: “What strategies have worked for me?”, “What did my coach say about procrastination?”, “What should I be proud of”?\n\n ![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=87083&key=user_uploads/608519/af1c2807-67a0-4141-922f-e2dc168185fa)\n\n\nCheck out how Shimmer 2.0 weaves **AI** into your everyday coaching experience, amplifying the power of expert human coaching.\n\n### **🙏 ASKS**\n\n* Try Shimmer (or share w/ a friend), start with an ADHD coach [here](http://www.shimmer.care/). 25% off your first month (e-mail [chris@shimmer.care](mailto:chris@shimmer.care) if you want a founder-focused coach)\n* Read [our full blog post](https://www.shimmer.care/blog/adhd-coaching-2-ai-launch) and support [our Product Hunt Launch](https://www.producthunt.com/posts/shimmer-2-0)", "url": "https://www.ycombinator.com/launches/MeZ-shimmer-2-0-ai-assisted-adhd-coaching", "votes": 12, "created_at": "2025-01-23T16:31:30.051Z" }, { "id": 83793, "title": "✨ Shimmer Body Doubling - Get things done, the ADHD way", "tagline": "The #1 ADHD Coaching Platform now offers Body Doubling", "body": "tl;dr: _After facilitating over 31,000 1:1 ADHD Coaching sessions, Shimmer members have access to the first multi-player community feature on the Platform—Body Doubling!

Since then, we’ve grown tremendously, building the #1 ADHD Coaching Platform recommended by HCPs, therapists, and psychiatrists across North America.\n\n### **❌ The Challenge**\n\nBody doubling is a popular strategy for people with ADHD (it works for neurotypical people too!) to get things done. It’s basically when you work in the presence of others, and the mere existence of them gives you positive accountability to get it done. It comes in many forms, and can even look like you doing laundry while chatting with your boyfriend while he cooks.\n\nThe challenge for people with ADHD, is that they don’t do these things consistently. Why?\n\n1. 🚧 **There’s too many hurdles**. They need to coordinate with people, it’s inconsistent, and people are unreliable\n2. 👹 **They’re ashamed**. Many body doubling apps exist already, but people with ADHD feel ashamed needing this tool just for their laundry, or to cook, or to do something else that seems mundane. Imagine showing up to a session and you can barely brush your teeth, and the other person says “I’m going to finish emailing back 10 investors on closing my round and launch our new podcast to Spotify”\n3. 🍬 **There’s not enough dopamine**. Isn’t this always the challenge with ADHD?! Whatever solution is out there, it’s not built to motivate ADHD brains.\n\n### **✨ The Solution**\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=83793&key=user_uploads/608519/dd6ff9c4-77bc-4531-9e74-ef8e34bf9129)\n\nShimmer Body Doubling (only available to Shimmer coaching members) is an ADHD-adapted Body Doubling experience that harnesses the power of the 6 ADHD motivators—interest, urgency, newness, accountability, challenge, and community, to help people with ADHD get things done.\n\n1.

Our mission is for every individual with ADHD to reach their full potential, _their way_.\n\n**❌ The Problem**\n\nADHD is a neurodevelopmental condition that affects 5% of adults (13M in US), but most are still struggling to get their symptoms in check.\n\n* **It’s not a lack of knowledge, it’s action**: People with ADHD know to make a list, they just don’t do it. We need practice, experimentation, and accountability.\n* **Good behavioral interventions price most people out:** Quality ADHD coaching costs $300-600+/mo. This prices out, well, the people who need it most.\n* **The process is cumbersome & not fit for ADHD**: I’ve been there (Chris): dozens of consultation calls, not knowing what to ask, dated technology, confusing e-mail chains, scared to pull the trigger, the list goes on.\n\n**✨ Our Solution**\n\nShimmer is a platform that connects expert ADHD coaches with members, facilitates weekly calls, and offers accountability and support via our iOS & Android apps. By truncating or “chunking” the sessions, offering asynchronous tools & resources, and streamlining coaches’ back-end tasks, we offer coaching at 5-10X more affordable than alternatives.\n\n**⚙️ How it works**\n\n1. **Join Shimmer**—Members start with an intake form that helps kick off their personalized journey. This helps the coach choose 1 of our 3 science-backed tracks to go down.\n\n ![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=66665&key=user_uploads/608519/e7fbca25-1704-4a84-82b0-76385ed12955)\n\n2. **Meet your coach**—Members meet weekly (for 15- or 45-min meetings) over video or audio to review progress, unpack topics, and set goals for the upcoming week.\n\n ![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=66665&key=user_uploads/608519/4f638136-5381-46f7-8b50-3df1e27fdbb3)\n\n3. **Weekly actionable plans**—The real work happens between sessions.

It’s an AI that plugs right into your Gmail account and filters out your low-priority mail. Then, it sends you a clean daily summary with everything it filtered out—including a TLDR of every newsletter you received.\\\n\\\nForage AI auto-labels emails, learns from your preferences, and gives you full control with custom rules. You can continue using any email app you prefer while Forage works in the background to streamline your inbox.\n\n\\\n**Works with every mail app**\\\nForage doesn’t replace your mail app. It connects to your Gmail account and runs in the background. So you can continue checking email as usual.\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=88022&key=user_uploads/77398/aa81e95d-0fc4-4db3-b556-d688020466f6)\n\n\\\n**A beautiful daily summary**\\\nForage sends you a daily summary email with everything it filtered out of your inbox. It groups emails by type and summarizes your newsletters—this makes it easy to skim, scan, and move on.\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=88022&key=user_uploads/77398/96d9596d-b4d9-4f30-b5a8-01e8db5aeed0)\n\n\\\n**A TLDR for every newsletter**\n\nEver find it hard to keep up with your favorite newsletters. Now, you can get the key points in your daily summary email and decide which articles you want to read in-full. Forage even gives you an estimated read time for each article.\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=88022&key=user_uploads/77398/2321939a-c461-4a89-8993-b51a305de075)\n\n\\\n**Protects your inbox from unwanted senders**\n\nForage makes it easy to unsubscribe from any sender with one click. You can also mute entire categories of email so they never show up in your inbox. Sometimes, senders don’t respect your unsubscribe request, but Forage is able to hide them anyway.\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=88022&key=user_uploads/77398/aa638edf-f448-422e-a003-f49726b5ea1e)\n\n\\\n**You’re always in control**\n\nForage AI makes intelligent decisions so it works well out-of-the-box. It learns from your preferences so it gets smarter the longer you use it. You can also create custom rules so you can decide exactly how your email is handled.\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=88022&key=user_uploads/77398/418dd868-14e5-4f10-ae8d-b1f39fc27ef1)\n\n# **How to get started**\n\nForage takes 30-seconds to set up. All you need to do is connect your Gmail account and Forage will create your first summary with the last 24 hours of email in your inbox. Then it will continue monitoring for new emails going forward.\\\n\\\n_We have a 14-day free trial, and you can get 10% off for life using the discount code LAUNCHYC10._\\\n\\\nWe’d love to hear your ideas, feedback, and questions!\\\n\\\nSpecial thanks to all the early testers who have helped guide the product over the last few months.

Our journey began at Imperial College London, where ground-breaking research gave birth to a technology poised to revolutionize breast cancer diagnostics.\r\n\r\nThe Challenge: Every year, breast cancer affects 2.3 million individuals globally. Post-surgery, 60% of patients are advised to undergo genomic testing, an expensive and time-consuming process monopolized by a single lab in the U.S., costing around $4,000 and taking nearly two months. Consequently, only 5% undergo this vital testing. The rest, unable to access this crucial diagnostic step, often resort to chemotherapy—a treatment that, in one in four cases, is more harmful than the cancer itself.\r\n\r\nOur Solution: Digistain addresses this critical gap. Our technology transforms the current diagnostic process by enabling hospitals to analyze patient samples in-house using existing equipment, supplemented with our innovative technology. This approach offers near-instantaneous decision-making data, a stark contrast to the existing month-long waits. Central to our technology is a proprietary algorithm that identifies a unique spectral fingerprint of the tumour in the infrared spectrum, providing a personalized risk score. This score guides oncologists in selecting the most effective, individualized treatment plans, potentially reducing unnecessary chemotherapy and its harmful side effects.\r\n\r\nImpact and Potential: Our solution not only challenges the status quo in technology but also in accessibility. In a landmark government-commissioned study, Digistain demonstrated clinical evidence on par with the market leader, but at a fraction of the cost and time. Already making waves in clinical practice globally, with insurance reimbursement at leading cancer centers, our technology represents a paradigm shift in cancer care.\r\n\r\nRecognized by the Institute of Physics, the Royal Society, and Imperial College for our innovative contributions, and supported by entities like the NHS, Y Combinator, and the European Investment Bank, Digistain is more than a company—it’s a movement towards equitable, effective cancer treatment. With the potential to democratize access to life-saving diagnostics, Digistain is not just envisioning a better future for cancer patients; we are actively creating it.\r\n ", "one_liner": "Pioneering Breast Cancer Diagnostics for a Healthier Tomorrow", "team_size": 40, "industry": "Healthcare", "subindustry": "Healthcare -> Diagnostics", "launched_at": 1624636740, "tags": [ "Medical Devices" ], "tags_highlighted": [], "top_company": false, "isHiring": false, "nonprofit": false, "batch": "Summer 2021", "status": "Active", "industries": [ "Healthcare", "Diagnostics" ], "regions": [ "United Kingdom", "Europe" ], "stage": "Early", "app_video_public": false, "demo_day_video_public": false, "app_answers": null, "question_answers": null, "url": "https://www.ycombinator.com/companies/digistain", "api": "https://devasheeshg.github.io/yc-api/batches/summer-2021/digistain.json", "year_founded": 2019, "city": "London", "country": "GB", "linkedin_url": "https://uk.linkedin.com/company/digistain", "x_url": "", "fb_url": null, "cb_url": null, "github_url": null, "logo_url": "https://bookface-images.s3.amazonaws.com/small_logos/ee811a143d9362213ecd8df87fca7780ce1945b8.png", "app_video_url": null, "dday_video_url": null, "company_photos": [], "primary_partner": null, "founders": [ { "user_id": 410138, "full_name": "Hemmel Amrania", "title": "Founder", "founder_bio": "Hemmel Amrania Ph.D, CEO has previously scaled several 7 figure businesses both in therapeutics and diagnostics.

We’re the first proxy for Brazil’s regulated ecosystem. After years of building fintechs in Brazil, we saw how painful it is to obtain a license or depend on PSPs and BaaS providers. Our previous B2C operation scaled to over a million accounts, and we suffered since a lot of our core product relied on partner infra, and it hurt us to not be able to solve the issues affecting our customers. We’ve been deeply involved with Open Finance since its earliest days — we were one of the first players in the ecosystem and became the **fourth ITP/PISP license ever issued in Brazil**, and after closing our B2C operation decided to pivot to B2B and build the financial infrastructure partner we always wished existed for ourselves.\n\nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F4_E2LYNBCQ\n\n## TL;DR\n\n**Cumbuca is the first regulatory proxy for Brazil's Open Finance and Pix ecosystem.** We give fintechs the same development freedom they'd have with their own license — direct API access, full operational control, custom infrastructure — while we handle compliance. No more choosing between years of licensing delays or surrendering control to third-party providers.\n\n**Ask:** Are you a global fintech looking to enter Brazil, or a payments company scaling beyond your current provider? Let's talk → [daniel@cumbuca.com](mailto:daniel@cumbuca.com)\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=95950&key=user_uploads/358823/0a8e01c7-dfb2-4489-aafa-c3e8f00a12bb)\n\n## ❌ The Problem\n\nBrazil is one of the most exciting fintech markets in the world — a forward-thinking Central Bank, Pix (the world's most successful instant payments system), and a mature Open Finance framework. Global fintechs want in.\n\nBut the path to market is brutal:\n\n**Option 1: Get your own license**\n\n* 12-24 months waiting for approval\n* Millions in regulatory capital\n* Constant compliance obligations\n* Need local expertise to navigate BACEN's evolving regulations\n\n**Option 2: Use a BaaS/OFaaS provider**\n\n* Fast time-to-market, but...\n* You're locked into their APIs and abstractions\n* Their maintenance windows = your downtime\n* Their support tickets = your customers waiting\n* Their roadmap = your product limitations\n* They use YOUR operational data for their own credit models\n\nFor companies serious about Brazil, neither option works. You either wait years or give up control of your destiny.\n\n---\n\n## 🛠 Our Solution: A Regulatory Proxy\n\nWe built something new: **a proxy that sits between your infrastructure and Brazil's regulated ecosystem.**\n\nHere's how it works:\n\n1. **You build your own infrastructure** using the exact same APIs that licensed institutions use\n2. **You send requests to our proxy**, which signs and forwards them under our license\n3. **You receive 1:1 responses** from the Central Bank ecosystem — no abstractions, no transformations\n\n**The key insight:** Instead of building \"Cumbuca APIs\" (which would impose our abstractions), we built a minimal regulatory layer. You develop against the official Open Finance and Pix specifications. When you're ready for your own license, you just swap our certificates for yours.\n\n**What you get:**\n\n* ⚡ **Immediate access** — start building today, not in 2 years\n* 🔧 **Full development freedom** — same API surface as licensed players\n* 🏗️ **Own your infrastructure** — build it yourself or use partner modules\n* 📊 **Own your data** — we don't use it for anything commercial\n* 🛡️ **Resolve issues directly** — no middlemen when problems arise\n* 🔄 **Future-proof** — migrate to your own license with minimal effort\n\n---\n\n## 👨‍💻 The Team\n\nWe didn't build Cumbuca from a whiteboard — we built it from scars.\n\n**Daniel Ruhman (CEO)** — Started coding as a kid after watching \"The Social Network.\" Dropped out of Computer Engineering to study at UC Berkeley. Built and pivoted through multiple startups: a gig economy platform, a Pix-native neobank for underserved Brazilians (Comadre), and a group expense app that grew to over 1 million accounts (Cumbuca B2C). Applied to YC 8 times before getting in.\n\n**Bruno Cury & Pedro Castilho (Co-founders)** — Together with Daniel, they became among the youngest statutory directors in Brazil's financial sector when they secured their first license in 2022. They've lived every pain point of building on Brazilian financial infrastructure.\n\nWe've assembled a dream team of Open Finance veterans:\n\n* **Gustavo Lino** (Head of Policy, Legal & Compliance) — Former President of INIT (Brazilian Association of Payment Initiators), board member of Open Finance Brazil\n* **Nic Marcondes** (Director of Open Finance) — Architect of the no-redirect payment flow (JSR), the technology behind Pix by Proximity. 5+ years building Open Finance before it officially existed.\n* **Ana Luisa Monteiro** (CFO) — Expert in Brazil's financial markets and regulated operations\n\n---\n\n## 🚀 Our Journey\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=95950&key=user_uploads/358823/7e9d0ec2-b17f-4efb-908c-9dd724d88dd1)\n\nThis is actually our **third pivot** — and it's working.\n\nWe were one of the first 5 companies to apply for a pure PISP license in Brazil. We co-founded INIT, the Payment Initiators Association. We operated over 1 million consumer accounts and learned firsthand how painful it is to depend on infrastructure you don't control.\n\nWhen our B2C monetization model failed (users only wanted Pix, not cards), we faced a choice: burn through our runway or leverage our real assets — our license and our team.\n\nWe chose to build the infrastructure partner we always wished existed.\n\n**The result:** Cumbuca has been profitable and cash-flow positive since August 2025 — just 3 months after pivoting to B2B.\n\n---\n\n## 🎯 Who We Work With\n\nCumbuca is **not a self-serve platform**. We work with:\n\n* **Global fintechs entering Brazil** — Series B+ companies that need more control than BaaS can offer\n* **Companies outgrowing their BaaS/OFaaS** — Ready to verticalize but don't want to wait for a license\n* **Companies in the licensing queue** — Start building and operating now, migrate when approved\n\nOur customers include credit companies using Open Finance data for underwriting, payment orchestrators, e-commerce giants, PFM apps, and investment aggregators.\n\n---\n\n## 🙏 Our Ask\n\n* **Entering Brazil?** Let's talk about how to launch without giving up control → [daniel@cumbuca.com](mailto:daniel@cumbuca.com)\n* **Know someone scaling in Brazilian payments?** Introduce us!\n* **Investor focused on LATAM fintech infra?** We'd love to connect.\n\n---\n\n## 🔗 Learn More\n\n* Website: [cumbuca.com](http://cumbuca.com)\n* Product Hunt: We're live — your upvote helps! 🚀\n\n---\n\nWe spent 7 years getting here.

We’re Aditya and Karan! 👋\n\nWarrant is an open source **authorization service** that **helps developers implement and enforce secure, compliant access control in their applications.** It abstracts away the complexity of building application authorization and access control so developers can instead focus on building core product features.\n\nOur cloud-first, API-first approach has enabled us to build a highly-scalable and performant service that now processes millions of customer API calls per month. Today, we’re excited to announce that Warrant is officially [open source](https://github.com/warrant-dev/warrant)! ⭐️\n\n### The Problem\n\nDevelopers, we’ve all been there. What started as a simple _isAdmin_ flag to distinguish between internal and external users — just so you could release that _one_ internal-only feature — has grown into a nightmare to maintain. It’s now a hodgepodge of booleans, database flags, and a halfway built role based access control system that not only slows down your team’s day-to-day development velocity, but also opens up your company to a slew of [costly security vulnerabilities waiting to be exploited](https://www.hackerone.com/press-release/organizations-paid-hackers-235-million-these-10-vulnerabilities-one-year-4).\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=70447&key=user_uploads/234741/60544231-1dac-4013-8872-c97b83878da3)\n\nWhat’s more? Your customers are now requesting the ability to self-manage their team’s roles and permissions, so you’ll be spending another 1-2 months building the APIs, UIs, etc. for this risky, non-differentiating feature.\n\nIn short, application authorization and access control is difficult to build and even trickier to maintain as a company’s product evolves and its needs change.\n\n### The Solution\n\nTo help developers quickly build world-class access control, Warrant provides three things:\\\n(1) **A centralized datastore for storing your application’s authorization policies and related data.** Warrant’s management dashboard and APIs make it dead-simple to safely modify authorization policies globally or for a single user or tenant in real-time. With Warrant, updating policies for all users as your product changes becomes a breeze.\n\n(2) **A real-time, low latency access control service for enforcing authorization policies in your application at runtime.** With official Warrant SDKs available for the most popular server-side languages and frontend frameworks, checking if a user has access becomes as easy as a call to Warrant’s _check_ method.\n\n(3) **A library of thoughtfully designed, authorization-specific UI components** that help with building self-service permission management flows, granting/denying access to privileged pages/UIs, displaying audit logs to users, and more. These components are **customizable and _permission-aware_**, so developers can drop them into any application.\n\n### What’s Next?\n\nJoin us on our journey to solve authorization and access control for all developers:\n\n* Give us a 🌟 [on GitHub](https://github.com/warrant-dev/warrant) and tell us what you’d like us to build next\n* Give us a follow [on Twitter](https://twitter.com/warrant_dev) to keep up with the latest Warrant features\n* Come discuss everything authz/access control in our [Slack community](https://join.slack.com/t/warrantcommunity/shared_invite/zt-12g84updv-5l1pktJf2bI5WIKN4_\\~f4w)\n* Try out our managed cloud service, [Warrant Cloud](https://app.warrant.dev/signup)", "url": "https://www.ycombinator.com/launches/IKF-warrant-open-source-application-authorization-and-access-control", "votes": 25, "created_at": "2023-03-21T14:59:40.890Z" } ] }, { "id": 24508, "name": "Meticulous", "slug": "meticulous", "former_names": [], "small_logo_thumb_url": "https://bookface-images.s3.amazonaws.com/small_logos/4ce6aef4dc5475edfb21a97203439220a785f2b5.png", "website": "https://www.meticulous.ai", "all_locations": "London, England, United Kingdom", "long_description": "Meticulous is a tool to automatically catch UI bugs in your web application with zero-effort.

The record command opens an instrumented browser which records your actions as you interact with your web application. Watch the record command below:\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=64757&key=user_uploads/155134/7b3e6754-07fe-424f-9896-1ba0b78f513a)\n\nThe simulate command re-executes the recorded sequence of actions on a URL of your choice, like localhost . A test consists of a recording ID (which identifies the recording to simulate on the new version of code) and a simulation ID. Tests are defined and maintained in a meticulous.json file. Meticulous takes a visual snapshot at the end of each simulation and a test fails if there is a discrepancy between the two snapshots.\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=64757&key=user_uploads/155134/cda27a4d-831e-4a25-b884-20583a4832f2)\n\nWatch the test command in action below:\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=64757&key=user_uploads/155134/484ba0aa-628b-4885-a341-f55e4a2daf2b)\n\n### What about flows that mutate state?\n\nImagine a test that simulates a user signing up to your application. You can't sign up twice with the same email address. Traditionally you have two options: 1) Write a mock for the network call 2) Introduce a mechanism for resetting state after each test execution. Meticulous solves this problem by providing an option to automatically mock out all network calls, eliminating the need for either of these approaches. This option should be used if you wish to isolate the frontend.\n\n### How can I try this?\n\nSign up [here](https://app.meticulous.ai/) and try out the product (no credit card required), or check out the [docs](https://docs.meticulous.ai) here.\n\nOn a related note, I started offering testing office hours to YC founders.

We are already using Sutter in ground-based observatories and will begin commercial sales of Sutter SDA data next month having tracked dozens of faint moving objects in space already.

Its AI-powered extraction engine identifies and extracts linear features — including curbs, pavement edges, guardrails, and barriers — and learns from each user's edits to improve accuracy over time.\n\nSurvey and engineering teams at Langan, Olsson, HDR, Woolpert, Michael Baker International, and major utilities and state DOTs already use it in production.\n\nCheck out our Digital Surveyor 2 Launch Video:\n\n[**https://youtu.be/XoISK5nx87E?si=mzcrxg5uI3hynSm2**](https://youtu.be/XoISK5nx87E?si=mzcrxg5uI3hynSm2)\n\n**❌ The Problem**\n\nEvery road, bridge, fiber network, and utility corridor project starts with a survey. Increasingly, that survey is done with LiDAR scans encompassing millions of points.\n\n**But here's the thing**: Collecting data isn't the hard part anymore, turning it into engineering ready deliverables is. Today, that work is being done manually. Skilled technicians sit in front of a screen and trace features one by one across potentially thousands of features. Paint lines, curbs, poles, signs, guardrails. Mile after mile.\n\n**As a result**: Firms turn down work they could win, deadlines slip, and the most expensive bottleneck of the workflow is the part that hasn't changed in 20 years.\n\n**✅ Our Solution**\n\nDigital Surveyor 2 is a web-based CAD application where AI works alongside drafters to extract features from point cloud data dramatically faster — without sacrificing the precision their clients require.\n\nHere's what makes it different:\n\n🔹 **AI that drafts with you**. \n\nThe feature extraction engine in Digital Surveyor 2 suggests linear features, such as curbs, pavement edges, guardrails, and barriers directly from LiDAR point clouds — and adapts to the user’s drawing patterns. As users draw, the software picks up on their patterns and refines its suggestions in real time.\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=99241&key=user_uploads/311199/ca66f2e8-267b-4693-83ec-81b92eabb558)\n\n🔹 **Field-to-finish in one environment**. \n\nIngest point cloud data from any system such as RIEGL, Trimble, or Leica scanners. Extract features with AI-assisted workflows and precision tools. Easily QA everything in 3D. Export directly into AutoCAD, MicroStation, or ESRI. No switching between tools. No preprocessing pipeline.\n\n🔹 **Built for the people who do this work**. \n\nDS2 was designed so that a surveyor who knows where points go in the field can be productive on day one. Surveyors, field techs, and project managers can easily be working in it with minimal ramp time or CAD expertise.\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=99241&key=user_uploads/311199/e5e82676-f1fd-4bcd-bd86-fcca46636e29)\n\n🙏 **Our Ask**\n\n* **👉 Follow us** — Stay up to date with what we're building.

From a management point of view, engineering resources dedicated to internal tooling are wasted as they should be focusing on customer-facing products. For developers, it’s a chore to work on unloved parts of the codebase that aren’t a priority for the business. And for other stakeholders in Product, Ops and Support, there’s never enough capacity to build the tools they desperately need, while the ones they have are slow, cluttered and the UX is often poor. \n\n### **🙌 How does Noloco help?**\n\n[Noloco](https://noloco.io?utm_source=bookface&utm_medium=forum&utm_campaign=postgres) is the no-code platform for teams to instantly create internal tools from databases like PostgreSQL, MySQL, Airtable & Google Sheets.\n\nOnce you connect your data source (e.g. PostgreSQL), Noloco automatically builds an app for you from your chosen tables including collection views (e.g. tables and kanban boards), record pages to view individual records and forms to add new records.\n\nNoloco provides a totally no-code builder. This genuinely makes building and configuring internal tools 10x faster. With our no-code first approach, Noloco also removes the reliance on engineers whenever your Ops, Customer Support, Product or Sales team want to make any changes or add new tools.\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=68486&key=user_uploads/567509/8fb689b6-3b51-4d51-8691-67e67803b002)\n\n### **🛠️ What can I build with Noloco?**\n\nCustomers around the world have built hundreds of internal tools with Noloco for a variety of use cases, including:\n\n* Internal tool for your customer support team to update customer plans\n* CRM to keep customer info up to date and trigger automated workflows\n* Dashboards to monitor product usage, sign-ups and converted customers\n* Project management tool for your Ops team \n\n### **⏰ Build your first internal tool in 20 minutes**\n\nMost customers find that they can build a functional, useful tool for their teammates to view or update data in their database within 20 minutes.

Current solutions rely heavily on manual analysis by call centres in locations like the Philippines or AI platforms narrowly focused on security rather than deeper operational insights. This leaves critical improvements in efficiency, customer satisfaction, and revenue growth unrealised.\r\n\r\nSolution: Tenyks unlocks unprecedented insights by applying advanced multimodal Vision-Language Models (VLMs) capable of comprehensive video summarisation, retrieval, and visual question-answering. These VLMs are seamlessly combined with specialised analytics for emotion detection, activity recognition, object tracking, and even gait analysis. Our platform transforms ordinary visual footage into extraordinary operational intelligence.\r\n\r\nInitial Focus: Starting with Quick Service Restaurants (QSRs), we enable operations leaders to instantly understand customer flow, kitchen efficiency, staff productivity, and quality of service using their existing security camera footage—turning previously inaccessible data into direct operational improvements and clear financial ROI. For instance, insights from Tenyks can accelerate the speed of service significantly; even a 1-second improvement in service speed could generate $30,000 additional annual revenue per restaurant. For a multi-unit owner of 100 restaurants, that's an additional $3 million per year.\r\n\r\nTraction: We've recently secured our first Fortune 500 customer, joining other major enterprises, global system integrators, and high-growth startups trusting Tenyks for powerful, data-driven decision-making.\r\n\r\nWhy Tenyks: Our patented technology originates from the founders' PhD research at Cambridge University. Previously, we helped world-leading teams scale high-performing Vision AI in production. \r\n\r\nRecognition: Recognised as a Rising Star in Gen AI by Sifted, Best Product of the Year by Vision AI Alliance, and Company of the Year by Cambridge University (previously awarded to DeepMind).", "one_liner": "The World's Most Versatile Video Answering Engine ", "team_size": 11, "industry": "B2B", "subindustry": "B2B", "launched_at": 1630087785, "tags": [ "Computer Vision", "Video", "AI", "AI Assistant" ], "tags_highlighted": [], "top_company": false, "isHiring": false, "nonprofit": false, "batch": "Summer 2021", "status": "Active", "industries": [ "B2B" ], "regions": [ "Bulgaria", "Europe", "Remote", "Fully Remote" ], "stage": "Early", "app_video_public": false, "demo_day_video_public": false, "app_answers": null, "question_answers": null, "url": "https://www.ycombinator.com/companies/tenyks", "api": "https://devasheeshg.github.io/yc-api/batches/summer-2021/tenyks.json", "year_founded": 2021, "city": null, "country": "BG", "linkedin_url": "https://www.linkedin.com/company/tenyks/", "x_url": "https://twitter.com/Tenyks_AI", "fb_url": null, "cb_url": "https://www.crunchbase.com/organization/tenyks", "github_url": null, "logo_url": "https://bookface-images.s3.amazonaws.com/small_logos/7006298209ca0e4b566665242aadbc44f58b1d59.png", "app_video_url": null, "dday_video_url": null, "company_photos": [], "primary_partner": null, "founders": [ { "user_id": 351439, "full_name": "Botty Dimanov", "title": "Founder/CEO", "founder_bio": "Dr. Botty Dimanov, CEO & Co-Founder of Tenyks, holds a PhD in Explainable AI for Vision from Cambridge University, invented US Patent for extracting concepts from visual information, and is a Forbes 30U30 honouree.\n\nTenyks is an award-winning Cambridge University spin-out backed by YCombinator.\nWe are building probably the world's most advanced Visual Intelligence Platform – think Snowflake for Visual data.", "is_active": true, "linkedin_url": "https://www.linkedin.com/in/botty-dimanov/", "x_url": "https://twitter.com/botty_dimanov", "avatar_thumb_url": "https://bookface-images.s3.us-west-2.amazonaws.com/avatars/1b50c89a9b232779d526ed936a1b186f488283ad.jpg" } ], "jobs": [], "news": [ { "title": "Doctor which cures Artificial Intelligence - bTV Media Group - bTV", "url": "https://www.btv.bg/shows/predi-obed/videos/doktorat-kojto-lekuva-izkustvenija-intelekt.html", "date": "Mar 15, 2023" }, { "title": "To Save the World from the Terminator", "url": "https://forbesbulgaria.com/2023/01/12/to-save-the-world-from-the-terminator/", "date": "Jan 12, 2023" }, { "title": "Tenyks lands $3.4m for human-AI interaction to fend off the ‘terminator’ | Business Weekly | Technology News | Business news | Cambridge and the East of England", "url": "https://www.businessweekly.co.uk/tech-trail/investment-tree/tenyks-lands-34m-human-ai-interaction-fend-%E2%80%98terminator%E2%80%99", "date": "Mar 07, 2022" }, { "title": "Cambridge startup Tenyks combats AI tech ‘terminator’ | Business Weekly | Technology News | Business news | Cambridge and the East of England", "url": "https://www.businessweekly.co.uk/news/startups/cambridge-startup-tenyks-combats-ai-tech-%E2%80%98terminator%E2%80%99", "date": "Dec 22, 2021" } ], "launches": [] }, { "id": 24569, "name": "Pillar", "slug": "pillar", "former_names": [], "small_logo_thumb_url": "https://bookface-images.s3.amazonaws.com/small_logos/30c7708edb83cf00c907f0e9d282b18823eb25e1.png", "website": "https://withpillar.com", "all_locations": "New York City, NY, USA; Remote", "long_description": "Pillar is designed to solve healthcare’s longitudinal engagement problem through a combination of our SOC 2-certified, HIPAA-compliant platform and health coach workforce.

But less structured information e.g. soft guidance or product-level results, can often only be found manually.

Instead of spending most of our time writing code ourselves, **we now primarily plan, review, and orchestrate** the efforts of these AI agents.\n\nPreviously, our bottleneck to shipping was the speed of writing code. Today, it’s how quickly we humans can effectively plan, review and keep on top of the work produced by AI. **Time spent watching coding agents working is time wasted.**\n\nhttps://youtu.be/TFT3KnZOOAk\n\n**With Vibe Kanban you can:**\n\n1. Easily switch between different coding agents\n2. Orchestrate the execution of multiple coding agents in parallel or in sequence\n3. Quickly review work and start dev servers\n4. Track the status of tasks that your coding agents are working on\n5. Centralise configuration of coding agent MCP configs\n\n**To launch Vibe Kanban:**\n\n```\n# Make sure you've already authenticated with Claude Code, Gemini CLI, Codex or Amp, then run:\n\nnpx vibe-kanban\n```\n\nYou can also read the docs at [vibekanban.com](https://vibekanban.com)\n\n**Our ask:**\n\nIf you use coding agents, please try starting your next task with Vibe Kanban. If you reach out to [Louis on X](https://x.com/LouisKnightWebb) with bugs and suggestions, I'll get Claude Code to work on your feedback ASAP.", "url": "https://www.ycombinator.com/launches/Nwy-vibe-kanban-10x-your-claude-code-usage", "votes": 27, "created_at": "2025-07-11T15:13:20.819Z" } ] }, { "id": 24622, "name": "Caire Health", "slug": "caire-health", "former_names": [ "CAIRE" ], "small_logo_thumb_url": "https://bookface-images.s3.amazonaws.com/small_logos/97361364dc226255ea7672c56e73b4967ef83a2e.png", "website": "http://cairehealthinc.com", "all_locations": "FL, USA", "long_description": "We believe that no emergency should have to wait.

It took away the fear, so I could reclaim my power.”\n\n### **Why are we building Ruth Health?**\n\nMaternal healthcare in America—and many places worldwide—is a mess. NYC has the highest maternal mortality rate of any major city in the developed world. Moms, parents, and even their non-birthing partners need us. Nobody should have to suffer alone, in silence, or without affordable, attainable help. Incontinence after birth may be normal, but it’s not “okay.” We’ve had ENOUGH.\n\nWe’re the women building women’s healthcare for us, by us.\n\nWomen deserve better ✊🏿✊🏽✊🏼 we make care better for every body.\n\n### **How can I help?**\n\n**1.

Pandai fills the demand with a solution that is better than the alternatives.\r\n\r\n👨‍🏫 Who We Are\r\n\r\nThe three founders are based in Malaysia and have known each other since high school, 23 years ago. \r\n\r\nAfter we graduated (from MIT & other US colleges), we started our first education company in 2007, focusing on coaching school students in STEM subjects.\r\n\r\nWe worked closely with students (many of them from underprivileged backgrounds) and saw firsthand the impact we’ve had on them. \r\n\r\nWe then realized that with technology, we could reach more students and bring more impact.

Today, all mRNA is synthesised via cell-free processes, which are expensive, cumbersome, and cannot produce mRNA with sufficient quality for many of its promising clinical applications. **We engineer cells to produce high-quality mRNA in a scalable and cost-efficient fashion to meet the growing demand for mRNA in novel vaccines and therapies.**\n\n### **The Problem: Cell-free mRNA manufacturing**\n\nCurrently, mRNA production completely relies on In Vitro Transcription (IVT), a cell-free process involving numerous proprietary and expensive enzymes and reagents. This method also requires multiple intricate steps, laborious purification procedures, and cannot be scaled to large reaction volumes.\n\nImportantly, IVT-based mRNA manufacturing generates highly immunogenic double-stranded RNA (dsRNA), which is posing risks in some of the most important applications of mRNA such as in gene editing and cancer. Moreover, it is difficult to produce and purify long mRNA sequences via IVT; this creates major obstacles for other promising mRNA modalities like self-amplifying mRNAs, which could significantly reduce the high amounts of mRNA needed for many of its therapeutic applications.\n\n**To truly unleash the power of mRNA more efficient, affordable, and effective mRNA manufacturing methods are needed.**\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=70713&key=user_uploads/89898/0eb9ee01-1c73-46bd-b15f-3bc3376e2176)\n\n## **The Solution: Cell-free mRNA manufacturing (not done)**\n\n**We are utilizing the processes in the living cells, which have been producing high-quality mRNA for millions of years.** By combining natural cellular processes with cell engineering, we build a scalable platform to produce high-quality mRNA cost-effectively.\n\nOur platform enables the production of **longer mRNA**, while addressing the problem of **immunogenic double-stranded RNA** inherent in IVT.\n\nBy removing the need for expensive and proprietary reagents, we enable **cost-effective mRNA manufacturing** and improve access to mRNA technology. Also, the **scalability** of cell-based mRNA production strengthens biosecurity and supply chain resilience.\n\nOur objective is to become a partner for all pharma and biotech companies striving to produce the next generation of mRNA therapies and vaccines.\n\n## **The Platform**\n\nOur platform combines the principles of **cell engineering**, **computational** **biology** and **precision** **fermentation**. We exploit and optimise the selective packaging of the mRNA of interest into specific protein complexes. This enables a specific encapsulation of mRNA, prevents mRNA contamination and simplifies its downstream processing.\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=70713&key=user_uploads/89898/01d827a8-d966-4616-a155-5a029401da1d)\n\n## **Team**\n\nSensible Bio was founded in August 2021 by **Miroslav Gasparek** (CEO) and **Dr Marian Kupculak** (CSO).\n\n**Miro** holds a Bioengineering degree from Imperial College London and conducted research at Imperial College, Caltech and Stanford. He worked with several TechBio VCs and advised public and private institutions in Central Europe on life science R&D. Miro also advised the Slovak Ministry of Health and the Board Member of the World Health Organization on biosecurity and innovation.\n\n**Marian** has a PhD in Molecular Biology from Oxford, where he focused on genetic engineering and cancer. He has more than 9 years of full-time wet-lab experience with cellular engineering. He has worked at the leading European research centres, including the University of Oxford, the University of Gothenburg, and Vienna BioCenter.\n\nOur leadership includes the **global leaders in mRNA manufacturing**, as well as in **clinical development and strategy**. We also assembled a fantastic team of bioengineers and scientists from across the globe.\n\n## **Traction**\n\nUsing our proprietary technology we have demonstrated the **capability to produce the mRNA**. Additionally, we have secured a major [co-development partnership with Ginkgo Bioworks](https://www.ginkgobioworks.com/2023/04/03/developing-a-novel-mrna-manufacturing-platform-with-sensible-biotechnologies/). We also set up collaborations with leading research institutions across the globe. Sensible Biotechnologies has established lab operations in **Oxford, United Kingdom** and **Bratislava, Slovakia**. We have obtained **10 Letters of Intent** for our mRNA from the biotech companies and research groups that would like to test it.\n\nOur **scientific advisory board** includes world-leading synthetic biology, mRNA manufacturing, and clinical experts and our mentors include the top life science executives.\n\nOur investors include **specialist** **TechBio** **funds** and leading **biotech executives** investing as angels.\\\n\\\nWe're excited to be working on unlocking the full potential of mRNA technology.

This context follows your code as your team continues to build.

They’ve seen this problem constantly and decided to do something about it.\n\n### **The problem:**\n\nThe problem space we’re working on is collaborating on code, passive documentation through code block level context, onboarding and offboarding engineers into a code base. We found this problem on pretty much every software team we’ve worked on - you open a file and don’t know how something runs and have to start asking in #devops chats which leads you on a goose chase to find the engineer that remembers how the monolith runs. It stinks, and when you’re done you move on and finish your work, you don’t really capture everything you learned in DMs and leave it for other team members to learn from.\n\n### **The solution:**\n\nWe’ve created an extension for VS Code to allow any engineer to attach their internal knowledge to specific files or lines of code and share it with the rest of the team.\n\n* Onboard or offboard engineers from your code base 10x faster.\n* Take notes while you code and help your team understand how it was built.\n* Ask the right person a question, without disturbing their flow.\n* Share a direct link to a code block in VS Code instead of sending screenshots.\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=64458&key=user_uploads/24543/e35a2b90-27fa-4279-97e9-24081fb02d92)\n\n### **How you can help:**\n\nYour support means the world to us.

Developers use us to save time and effort, writing robust web scraping and automation logic that is reusable across many websites. Get started [here](http://app.bytebot.ai/auth/sign-up), and book some time with us [here](https://calendly.com/bytebot/bytebot-overview?back=1&month=2024-03).\n\n**❌ The Problem**\n\nBrowser scraping and web automation can be incredibly time-consuming and complex, often requiring a detailed and deep understanding of the web elements involved. Traditional methods are slow to iterate and can be difficult to scale, especially for startups and large companies.\n\nToday, you might:\n\n* Spend hours building scripts, hunting through HTML for the right selectors/xpaths\n* Waste effort debugging and maintaining scripts that break after page layout changes\n* Struggle with captchas, IP address rotation\n\n**💫 The Solution**\n\nBytebot simplifies and streamlines browser automation by translating your natural language prompts into intricate web tasks, from data extracting to website monitoring to form filling.\n\nBenefits include: \n\n* Eliminating time spent hunting for selectors or xpaths, as you can just prompt what you would like to happen instead\n* Allowing you to design scripts with  prompts that are reusable across multiple websites or domains\n* Providing robust and self-healing scripts that can adapt to website layout changes or updates\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=81738&key=user_uploads/3186/cb84607a-1f46-48f4-ad7b-c1c5f61dda6d)\n\n**⚒️How It Works**\n\nBytebot lets developers focus more on the prompting and less on the maintenance. Instead of writing complex scripts, you simply describe what you want to do, like _\"Add the item to the shopping cart\"_ or “_Login in with these credentials_“ and Bytebot handles the rest.\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=81738&key=user_uploads/3186/5317da8e-9760-4477-9a23-45ea0db84bc8)\n\nBehind the scenes, Bytebot takes a snapshot of a given webpage and leverages LLMs to translate prompts into the appropriate browser actions.\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=81738&key=user_uploads/3186/27874219-8f4a-4fcd-8480-21d039d83be6)\n\n**Speeding Up Automations**\n\nBytebot significantly speeds up the development cycle. Faster iterations enable companies to test and experiment with workflows without lengthy setup times. This increase in efficiency leads to higher ROI, as teams can focus on high-impact projects instead of getting bogged down by repetitive tasks.\n\n\n\n**Versatile for All Users**\n\n Bytebot is designed for users of all technical levels:\n\n* **For Companies with Existing Infrastructure:** If your company already has a mature Puppeteer or Playwright setup, Bytebot integrates seamlessly. You can quickly hook Bytebot into your existing scripts without overhauling your current system.\n* **For Companies Needing Browser Support:** If you don't want to manage browser infrastructure, our Hosted Browser API has you covered. We'll handle running the browser, and you can interact with Bytebot without worrying about captchas and IP address rotation.\n*  **For Non-Technical Users:** For the quickest setup and experimentation, our Playground (coming soon!) offers a no-code UI, with a live browser view.\n\n**🙏Our Asks**\n\n* [Sign up](http://app.bytebot.ai/auth/sign-up) to try Bytebot!

Most solutions are high-effort, expensive, inconvenient — or all of the above.\n\n# **The Solution**\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=91753&key=user_uploads/583225/4f74514a-9282-4194-b496-f5a8f8bb9a9e)\n\nPippa is the world’s first _conforming resistance spring._ It comes in two sizes and levels of resistance: light (42mm) and medium (50mm).\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=91753&key=user_uploads/583225/b5b7eaf1-5356-4c53-a2f9-deb7d4cb441e)\n\nIt works like a resistance band, but for hard-to-reach inner core.\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=91753&key=user_uploads/583225/0d8c4d39-8f5e-41f3-ad68-1bd2736df857)\n\nPippa passively responds to core muscle movement by expanding and compressing, thereby activating the muscles and increasing effective function by up to 35%.\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=91753&key=user_uploads/583225/483ecf52-ea8b-4f74-9b7f-11f453d8460e)\n\nThe reusable applicator makes it easy to put Pippa into place. The large finger loop makes anytime removal a breeze.\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=91753&key=user_uploads/583225/c47281f3-861d-4a89-baef-c1226c1e9092)\n\n# **The Founders**\n\nProduct inventor, [Carly Price](https://www.linkedin.com/in/pricecarly/) (L), has designed many award-winning and commercially successful consumer products. She conceived Pippa after trying different solutions for kegel exercise and bladder support, none of which met her comfort and convenience expectations. \\\n\\\nCofounder and CEO, [Melody Roberts](https://www.linkedin.com/in/melodyannroberts/) (R), incubated service models and self-ordering solutions for McDonald’s and Panera. \\\n\\\nWe worked with a wide range of experts–including urogynecologists, physiotherapists, and other health professionals–to ensure Pippa would be comfortable and fully safe.\n\n# **Our Asks**\n\n* **Get the full story** at [**Kickstarter**](https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/liv-labs/get-fit-inside-and-out-with-pippa)\n* **Share this post** **with friends and family** of any age\n* **Suggest potential retailers** to [**melody@livlabsfitness.com**](mailto:melody@liv-labs.com)", "url": "https://www.ycombinator.com/launches/Nrt-pippa-a-pelvic-floor-fitness-booster-for-women", "votes": 12, "created_at": "2025-07-01T01:00:27.624Z" } ] }, { "id": 24926, "name": "Revolve Surgical", "slug": "revolve-surgical", "former_names": [], "small_logo_thumb_url": "https://bookface-images.s3.amazonaws.com/small_logos/3432070f3c596c704428f8721684045f22cb0714.png", "website": "https://revolvesurgical.com/", "all_locations": "Toronto, ON, Canada", "long_description": "Revolve is building the world’s only surgical robot designed for every operating room.
