Agent to agent communication is going to be a big deal. Agent swarms are how OpenAI solved Navier Stokes, and every engineer orchestrating multiple agents has felt the pain of being a human message bus.
Congrats on the launch @willwashburn and @Khaliqgant!
Today we're launching @agent_relay
Your team’s agents shouldn’t need YOU to copy-paste their conversations.
Agent Relay lets them read each other’s sessions, ask questions, and hand off work across the tools your team already uses.
Keep using the Codex mac app, Claude in the terminal or even tools like Conductor.
Open source. Free to try our cloud.

Excited to officially launch @LarkAgents today!
Our first customer is already saving 50 hours a week with Lark, automating ERP data entry and deciding what to reorder.
Lark combines AI with inventory optimization algorithms to recommend what to order, when, and how much, helping teams reduce stockouts and excess inventory.
Teams can review recommendations and set limits on what Lark does automatically.
No one I’d rather be building with than my brother @michael_wxng.

What if factories could run themselves?
Horizontal (YC F26) is rethinking factory operations from first principles, with AI agents that coordinate the shopfloor
Today Nik and I are launching horizontal. (YC F26): AI agents that run factory operations.
Robots build the product, but people still run the factory. Planners, logistics and quality teams keep plants in sync by hand, across emails, spreadsheets and a dozen disconnected systems.
As mechanical engineers, we've seen this firsthand on the shop floor. Those days are coming to an end.
Our agents do that work themselves, inside the systems the factory already uses.

We have raised a $550M Series E at an $8.8B valuation, led by Atreides.
Every major existing investor is back in, and we’re welcoming Baron Capital, Capital Group, Fidelity, Glade Brook and J.P. Morgan. We picked investors who think in decades. Several of them work with law firms and legal teams every day, so they can see where the work is heading.
Lawyers are moving from AI assistants to agents that do multi-step work. The money goes there. We’re growing our teams across North America, Europe, Latin America and Asia-Pacific, and going deeper on the Legora aOS.
Thank you to the 1,000+ people at Legora, and to the 140,000 legal professionals who use what we build.
I say this a lot because I believe it: it’s the best time in history to be a lawyer. We're thankful to be a part of it.

Introducing Probe: The Agent-Native Research Stack.
Our goal is simple: help AI/ML teams run better experiments, faster.
Teams run research with agents now, but their work is disordered. They lose hours verifying what their agents actually did, managing environments and compute, and re-explaining company context their agents should already know.
So we rebuilt the research stack from the ground up for agent-driven research.
Probe brings core research tools, shared context from past experiments, and visibility into each run together in one platform.
Teams can spend less time setting up infrastructure, supervising agents, and catching teammates up, and more time testing ideas.
If you’re a research lab, scale your research team without sacrificing speed.
If you’re an AI/ML team, stand up a research capability with the infrastructure of a frontier lab.
See Probe for yourself: useprobe.ai/

One job we can all be happy AI is taking: applying for tourist visas!
Today we're launching @VeezaAI (YC F26) - an AI tourist visa agent for people with weak passports.
Yes, you read that right. Weak passports.
If you have a US or EU passport, you book a flight and go. For the rest of the world, every trip starts with forms, bank statements, and fighting for an appointment.
We've suffered through this for 30 years. Those days are coming to an end.
Pick your destination. Veeza AI does the paperwork and books the appointment.
start at: veeza.ai

Food distribution will be needed no matter how far AI advances. But the industry runs on a 2.9% profit margin, and I see that as a problem.
The solution is efficiency. Apps and software have been tried before, but they never took hold in an industry where paper and texts are the norm and technology is not a strength.
Asakana (YC F26) automates sales and the entire back office without changing how anyone works. Keep using email, text and handwritten paper. No ERP change needed. With minimal change in behavior, we make food distributors more efficient and more profitable.

Today we’re launching @neomatterai (YC F26), the operating system for in-house legal teams.
Neomatter picks up legal requests wherever they come from (email, Slack, Salesforce, etc) and does all the work. Then the lawyer reviews, approves, and sends.
We thought legal could use some change. Book a demo and see it for yourself!

One in nine people aged 65 or older has Alzheimer's. The majority don't know it. By detecting it early we can slow its progression, so they never suffer the symptoms.
Congrats on the launch @shreyasbhardwj.
You can have Alzheimer's for 15 years and not know it.
We can finally slow it down. But only if we catch it early.
So we built the earliest test for it. Saccade (YC F26)

What if building satellites looked less like a NASA clean room and more like an Amazon fulfilment centre? Thats what @alexlisso and Matt Hanley are building at Inflection. Congrats on the launch!
@inflectionspace will manufacture 10,000 spacecraft per year by 2031. @matt_hanley_ and I have spent our entire careers designing and building spacecraft, and we know that the status quo doesn’t scale. We’re going to fix it.

Biggest bounty ever for a vulnerability found entirely by AI?
Super impressive finding by the team at @verialabs
Our AI found a bug that let anyone mint infinite XRP, with $94B at risk. It had been hiding in one of the most audited codebases in crypto for nearly a decade, and earned us the maximum $250K bounty.
Here's how it went unnoticed, and how we found it.

Can superintelligence fix US healthcare? It turns out a lot of the reason health insurance in the US is so messed up is because it’s too complicated for the buyers to optimise. Decent are using AI to fix that.
Congrats on the launch @nicksoman and @abudker!
Your health plan should get better year-round. Not just once a year.
Today we're launching @Decent on @ycombinator. We find the best health plan for your company, then keep making it better all year.

I've been talking to a YC founder who's 15 years in and still doing big new things. One of the biggest popular misconceptions about startups is that founders have a brilliant idea, then implement it. In fact more often than not the biggest idea comes later.

We’re excited to welcome @vivianmshen and @raphaelschaad as YC’s newest General Partners!
Vivian and Raphael first came to YC as founders.
Vivian co-founded Juni Learning (W18), which teaches kids coding and math, and later founded Acely, an AI tutor for college prep. Raphael founded Cron (W20), the calendar app that became Notion Calendar.
They built products used by millions of people, then returned to YC as Visiting Partners to help other founders. Now they're doing it full-time.
