We find where AI agents fail, then train better models.

What is your company going to make? Please describe your product and what it does or will do.

Agnost AI reads every conversation a company's AI Agent has with its users to spot failure modes. We then use that same real user data to train custom models that run the agent better, faster, and cheaper than default frontier models. Companies use Agnost AI to monitor their deployed agents for where they're falling short and quickly spin up more performant custom models right from their actual support logs.

Where do you live now, and where would the company be based after YC?

San Francisco, CA, USA. The company will continue to be based there after YC.

Explain your decision regarding location.

We are already in San Francisco, which is the best city to be for AI and developer tools companies. The tech ecosystem here is strong, and it's where our early users and partners are.
