Describe what your company does in 50 characters or less.

The boring stuff, handled. Everything else, supercharged.

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

We are building Doe, a platform where AI agents actually do the repetitive and administrative work for knowledge workers. Users connect their existing tools, tell Doe what they need, and these agents complete tasks autonomously or assist to make manual work faster. We aim to remove busywork and boost productivity with generative AI coordinating complex workflows.

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

We live in San Francisco, CA, and the company will remain based here after YC.

Explain your decision regarding location.

San Francisco is where our team lives and where the B2B SaaS and AI ecosystem thrives. Staying here lets us move fast, hire locally, and be close to early users and partners.
