What DryMerge does

We create AI agents that constantly monitor emails, calendar, calls, or wherever else companies have relationship data and organize it into CRM records as meticulously as a great rep would. We build these agents on top of the DryMerge platform, a tool to build AI agents that integrate with business apps and work in the background.

AI that updates your CRM for you

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

We're building AI agents that watch emails, calendars, calls, and other sources where companies keep relationship data. These agents automatically create and update CRM records with the same care a skilled sales rep would, so companies don't waste time on data entry. Our platform supports building and running these background AI agents integrated deeply with business apps.

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

We live in San Francisco and will stay based here after YC.

Explain your decision regarding location.

San Francisco is where we are based now and it puts us in the middle of the startup ecosystem. It's easiest for hiring, fundraising, and working with early customers in B2B SaaS.
