The fastest way to build an AI agent
We build an AI agent platform that connects directly to company data warehouses and APIs. This lets teams create custom AI agents that can take real actions in their systems, like routing tickets, analyzing customer feedback, or monitoring account health. Our product includes a visual workflow editor and fine-grained controls so teams can tailor agents to complex business needs and scale them easily.
We live in New York, NY, and after YC we would be based there as well.
