Traverse (@traverseso) is a data research lab solving the hardest problem in AI training: subjective, taste-dependent work. They generate long-horizon training data for frontier models by observing and capturing what specialists actually do on the job. Congrats on the launch, @lanceyyan and @thezacharyyu! ycombinator.com/launches/PdH-t…

Register for the H-1B lottery with Gale here: app.galevisa.com/auth/sign-up-h…

One year after we launched, Gale is an immigration platform trusted by 100+ YC companies, unicorns, and public Fortune 500s. And today, we’re excited to launch a simpler way for companies to file the H-1B lottery. We created a platform to file the H-1B lottery for 100 employees in 30 minutes, for $0 (yes, ZERO dollars) in platform fees. Every single submission will be reviewed and submitted by an immigration attorney. We also carry this data forward to make every subsequent visa application you do with us easier. Compared to a traditional immigration law firm: 1. Instead of re-entering the same information for every employee, we automatically carry it over between applicants. 2. Instead of weeks of back-and-forth emails, you can file all your employees for the H-1B lottery with a 30-minute form, and know the rest is taken care of. 3. Instead of redoing the process for subsequent H-1B petitions or extensions, 60% of the case is already completed by transferring data from the lottery submission. 4. Instead of worrying about manual H-1B compliance, we generate the required electronic LCA and Public Access File for you. All of this came from a core realization; the bottleneck in the immigration industry is accurate data flows. We build great simple software to fix this, and combine it with independent world class attorneys. If you’d like to get started, you can sign up using the link in the comments.

@YuhuangOu @clay @ycombinator @DoeLabs looking forward to it!

Excited to be heading to @clay's NYC HQ on 8th of December to speak at the Clay AI Speaker Session! I'll be talking about my @ycombinator experience, how we're building an AI-native product at @DoeLabs, and the ways AI has shaped our decisions, our pace, and our trajectory. Hope to see you guys there in person/online :) luma.com/0ycweuzq

@adinagoerres legendary launch video

WE ARE LIVE super excited to announce the launch of the first AI platform that modernizes the glue code every enterprise runs on. every industry is held together by invisible glue code: scripts someone wrote 10 years ago, cron jobs that were tacked on here and there, and one-off connectors that no one wants to touch but the entire business depends on. superglue is better glue: it captures internal know-how, analyzes system dependencies, and automatically rebuilds auto-repairing glue code, for any system, file type, or format. What used to take weeks of manual reconstruction and debugging now takes days, saving companies millions. legacy glue is holding back IT teams in every major enterprise today - better glue is the key to unlock the potential of AI and modern infrastructure. we are only getting started. let's gooooo

@ycombinator @generalityinc congrats on the launch guys!

Game Arena from @generalityinc is the largest LLM strategy game tournament to date. Games are great for measuring LLMs on instruction following, long-horizon planning, and problem-solving. In fact, models that are Olympiad-level at math and coding often struggle to make accurate moves in Game Arena (median illegal-move rate: 11.4%). Game environments also resist contamination and saturation: every run is unique, so there’s no risk of training-data leakage, and the bar keeps rising as models improve. Game Arena has digitized hundreds of board games into fresh new environments, and today it’s debuting its first tournament, with models like GPT-5 High, Claude Opus 4.1, and DeepSeek V3.1 from OpenAI, Anthropic, Qwen, DeepSeek, Google, and more going head-to-head. You can watch game replays and full model reasonings on game-arena.ai. Congrats on the launch, @sanerc110 and @kaylalee278!

As YC-backed founders who navigated immigration ourselves, we know exactly what you're facing. We've helped dozens of immigrant founders secure their visas and build their American dreams. Don't let a broken system stop your breakthrough:

A complex immigration system that can seem confusing at first. You might have the next world-changing idea. But one visa denial can end everything. Levi could show up and start selling. Today, you need legal strategies that most lawyers don't understand:

Levi's story proves that immigrants don't just chase the American Dream... They create it. But today's immigrant founders face a different challenge. Here's what Levi never had to deal with:
