Fenrock AI (@FenrockAI) is building back office AI agents for banks. and private lenders.
Process loans in minutes. Resolve customer complaints in seconds. Investigate 10x AML and fraud cases.
Congrats on the launch, @Charu1603 and @MichaelFenrock!

An hour of astronaut time is $130k! Inevitable that all research and manufacturing in space will be done by autonomous robots. Excited for what @GenAstronautics will be delivering to orbit 🚀🤖
Y Combinator@ycombinator
.@GenAstronautics builds autonomous robotics for space. In microgravity, proteins crystallize without defects and semiconductors form without flaws, but astronaut time is scarce. They are enabling scale for the work that can't be done anywhere else. Congrats on the launch, @BramSchork and @ShiboZhou! ycombinator.com/launches/PY8-g…

How smart is the AI R&D engineer from @Aemon_ai? The agent just broke a world record on an NP-hard optimization problem with less than $10 compute.
Y Combinator@ycombinator
.@Aemon_ai is the AI R&D engineer. Give it a problem and a way to measure success, it then discovers optimal solutions, often going beyond what human experts can find. They just set a new record on circle packing — a classic NP-hard problem — with less than $10 of compute. Learn more at aemon.ai. Congrats on the launch, @Richard__Zhou and @RayXu_official! ycombinator.com/launches/PXs-a…

.@OneRobotHQ builds world model-based simulations that are realistic to see and realistic to interact with, so robotics teams can train and evaluate VLAs without being bottlenecked by robot time.
Congrats on the launch, @hsarabu_ and @eltonbear6996!

Cross-modal prediction for biology is a massive unlock for drug development. StrandAI’s foundation model has already beaten SOTA at predicting spatial proteomics from standard histology.
Y Combinator@ycombinator
.@strandaibio builds foundation models to fill in missing patient data. They predict unmeasured biological modalities from existing ones, turning sparse clinical trial datasets into complete multimodal profiles. Congrats on the launch, @_odedf and @moremelessyue! ycombinator.com/launches/PXW-s…

OctaPulse (@tryoctapulse) uses robotics and computer vision to automate fish inspection for aquaculture farms. From hatchery to processing, they're building the future of autonomous aquaculture.
Congrats on the launch, Paul and @rohxnsxngh!

We just raised $6.3M seed to help dev teams build and deploy MCP Servers for AI Agents and MCP Apps for ChatGPT / Claude
Our open source SDKs crossed 4M downloads when we recorded this video (now already 6M+).
Our mission is to build tools that enable humans to build software for agents, as agents will be the primary consumers and manipulators of digital information.
We make building with MCP effortless.
Create MCP servers or MCP Apps with mcp-use SDK.
Preview and iterate with mcp-use Inspector.
Connect your GitHub repo to our Manufact Cloud.
Instantly make your MCP Server available to billions of AI agents and 800M+ users of ChatGPT / Claude.

Overshoot is the fastest API for real-time vision. Literally faster than human reaction time (<200ms).
Developers are using it to ship video agents in gaming, robotics, sports and security.
Check out the playground: overshoot.ai
Congrats @zakariaornot and Younes on the launch!

YC just published our spring Requests for Startup. For the first time, we invited YC founders to participate and several of them were written by our founders.
YC founders submitted over 100 ideas. We picked a few of our favorites. Thanks to @zanehengsperger, @DaivikGoel and @charlieholtz for contributing such thought-provoking ideas.
Y Combinator@ycombinator
The way startups are built has shifted quickly. We're excited about a range of startup ideas for AI-native companies that can now be built faster, cheaper, and with more ambition than ever. ycombinator.com/rfs

Take the first step for yourself and apply to the Spring 26 batch!

YC has always been about founders becoming the most formidable versions of themselves.
Amazing work @aaron_epstein and @eve_bouff on telling this story with the new site!
Y Combinator@ycombinator
Today, we're excited to launch a newly redesigned ycombinator.com! Our new site puts founders front and center and we want it to reflect what YC is really about: helping talented builders become great founders.

@govdash is built by an insanely talented and formidable team. It’s been a privilege to be along for this ride. Congratulations on the Series B!
Y Combinator@ycombinator
Congrats to @GovDash on their $30M Series B! GovDash is building AI-native infrastructure for gov contracting. It vertically integrates the full procurement lifecycle, from opportunity discovery to delivery & recompete, so contractors win faster & focus on mission, not paperwork. Congrats to @seandoher1y & team! axios.com/pro/fintech-de…
