What Lab0 does

Enterprise software implementation is broken, and it has been for decades. Every rollout, whether it's a traditional ERP or a new AI system, requires months of manual integration, configuration, and tuning done by armies of system integrators and forward-deployed engineers. Lab0 builds agentic systems that automate this layer, compressing months-long implementations into weeks.

Describe what your company does in 50 characters or less.

Automated forward-deployed engineers (AI FDEs)

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

We build AI-powered agentic systems that automate enterprise software implementations. Our product replaces months of manual integration and tuning by system integrators with an automated process that compresses rollouts from months to weeks. We focus on enterprise software like ERP or AI systems where implementation is traditionally slow and manual.

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

We live in San Francisco, CA, and the company is based here.

Explain your decision regarding location.

San Francisco is where we live and where our network is strongest. It's still the best place to connect to enterprise customers and investors for B2B AI startups like ours.
