What Akkari does

Akkari runs the operational work from the first sales call through expansion. It captures and stays on top of every commitment, issue, request and opportunity across customer channels (Slack, calls, meetings, email, Discord, etc.) then drives each loop to resolution - our wedge toward building the AI execution system for companies. We are 2x YC founders who scaled OrderAhead (acquired by Square) to millions of users and BLADE to $1.2B+ in monthly trading volume.

Autonomous Customer Operations

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

We built Akkari to automate and manage the entire customer operations workflow - from initial sales call through account expansion. It tracks every commitment, issue, request, and opportunity across customer channels like Slack, calls, email, meetings, and Discord, then drives each interaction loop to resolution. This replaces manual, fragmented customer follow-ups with a system that ensures nothing falls through the cracks.

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

We live in San Francisco, CA, and Akkari will be based here after YC.

Explain your decision regarding location.

San Francisco is where our existing team is located, and it's the hub for both our engineer network and potential customers in B2B SaaS and AI infrastructure.
