What Meteor does

Meet Meteor: a Chrome-alternative that can actually do your work for you. With agents getting better by the day (literally), we realize that it’s time to automate the boring, tedious work. We use your browser session to empower agents to act like your personal assistants (ex. book a calendar, find cheaper flights, buy clothes on amazon etc.) Some of Meteor’s features: - Chat with any page - Integrate with popular apps like Gmail, Google Calendar, Twitter etc. - Browser agent to autonomously navigate the web and perform tasks - More coming soon! We're excited to usher in a new era of browsing.

An AI-Native Browser

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

We're building Meteor, a Chrome alternative that uses AI agents to act like personal assistants within the browser. It can autonomously navigate the web to perform tasks like booking calendars, finding cheaper flights, or shopping online. Users can chat with any webpage and integrate their browser with apps like Gmail or Twitter. Meteor aims to automate the repetitive and tedious parts of browsing, freeing users to focus on higher-value work.

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

We currently live and work in San Francisco, CA, and Meteor will be based here after YC as well.

Explain your decision regarding location.

San Francisco has the engineering talent and startup ecosystem we need to grow Meteor and connect with early users and investors.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this the real Meteor YC application?

No. Y Combinator keeps submitted applications private. This is a reconstruction: the real YC form questions, answered from Meteor's public data (launch notes, founder backgrounds, product description). It shows how a company like Meteor would present itself to YC, not the text they submitted.
