Submitted my application to YC.
No pain, no gain.
No guts, no glory.

@inflectivAI @ycombinator @kuli_ai It's not just about logos. Being 10x more efficient on marketing will make the smaller brands differentiate way more
English
@ycombinator @kuli_ai Well done on Kuli. Reaching major brands so quickly shows it delivers real value for efficient campaign planning and execution.

@justinnguyen @ycombinator @kuli_ai Detect and get to action! Insight is nothing if you need to do the manual tasks for hours after
English
@ycombinator @kuli_ai Kinda like a radar for the latest trends, I like it
English
@Agutier7 @ycombinator @kuli_ai You're describing the old way @Agutier7. If you see 100% of the feed, you know what works and you produce content with that insight. Welcome to the new world
English
@ycombinator @kuli_ai Kudos for Kuli! But honestly, that’s isn’t how really works marketing; I mean, if you only see 1% of the entire supply chain and media distribution; fine! But the OPM w/+40 years has >50 steps. 1 agent = 1 task. +chaos 2 marketing chaos. Think on how AI simplifies the e2e.

YC is the best asymmetric bet you can make as an entrepreneur. You don't get better odds than this.
Who's applying on deadline day ?
Y Combinator@ycombinator
The deadline to apply for the YC Summer 2026 batch is tomorrow, May 4th, at 8pm PDT! Apply at ycombinator.com/apply.

@willchen500 I am not, not a fan! I could use a better legal officer than Claude that does not require me to go through an expensive lawyer for every contract or question haha
English
@maradoh22 Yes I tend to agree with you Mike. Sad that you are not a fan of Mike. I don’t expect Biglaw firms to adopt it tomorrow even though it would save them tons of money. Mike is more about proving a point.

Harvey is valued at $11B. Legora just raised at $5.5B. I built their entire web application in two weeks and I'm making it open-source and free for everyone to use. Say hi to Mike: mikeoss.com.
When I got the chance to try Harvey and Legora, I was surprised by how simple they were. A thought came to mind: I could probably build something similar in no time at all with Claude. And so I did.
Assistant, project, tabular review and workflows. You get it all without vendor lock-in.
Mike offers law firms an alternative, where they own the application layer and aren't stuck with a vendor they're renewing forever.
You can try Mike in the demo on the website, or go to the GitHub link on the site to download the code and run a local version yourself.

The stage is set.
We’re coming out of stealth on May 5th.
Before then, we’re hosting a private viewing of our launch video here in SF.
A curated evening with a group of people we genuinely want to share this journey with.
If you care about tech + emotion + culture, we want you in the room.
Comment below if you’re interested.
Can’t wait to share what we’ve been building.

@brycent ppl are already looking for different experiences of content for different moments of their day-to-day.
short form = low attention and quick value moment --> the most clippable formats will do great on Insta/TikTok
long form = chill moment, focus and real messages delivered
English
Firm believer that if we are in the clipping era (which we most certainly are) and it's going to get 1000x bigger
I feel as though the actual meta/alpha play is releasing very long-form topical 30-min to hour long videos on YouTube and not clipping at all
Completely deviating away from clipping and making the video feel almost like an anti-clip.
English
@brycent It just makes sense and not only for startups.
People used to think only b2c were meant to end up on short form socials. Turns out getting thousands of views in the right eyes is a great strategy for any company and that’s something only creators can deliver
English
Our videos like this are bringing startups insane amount of customers on IG and TikTok.
Every company will have organic social or work with a creator to build organic social.

.@garyvee says Fortune 500 CMOs are wasting $0.93 of every dollar they spend, and that "every brand on earth should be spending 20% of their entire marketing budget just on social media organic production." "Because the mid-funnel and 'tiktokification' of social has eaten up the world, we should spend no media dollars on creative that we're just guessing will work for the big campaign." "Every Fortune 5000 company is still guessing in the upper funnel: sponsorships, ridiculous stuff. In the lower funnel, we're seeing 2016 A/B testing and Meta frameworks." "There's a lot of money being wasted by the companies representing the eyeballs watching this show right now, and it makes me sad."

@ycombinator @trykinect Crazy world we’re living in! Congrats guys

first video, let's see where it goes.
got a ton more to share.
video inspired by @cosimo_dauve and @nikitabier tips
English
met this yc founder yesterday. I think he's onto something and might ask him if I can angel invest
English
@ludogranger if my math is correct, you have 33x more chance to get in YC by having your recommendation
English
@Winterrose There must be at least 1 VC who would be willing to back this up
English
I wish I could afford to stay away from computers, phones, and internet for a year
If anyone wants to pay me $2m to try it im down.
