What Mimos does

Mimos helps companies rank in AI search. 800 million people use ChatGPT every week. Today, customers don’t see 10 blue links, they see an answer. And if your brand isn’t cited, you basically don’t exist. Our agents automate the playbook for becoming the answer: 1. Pinpoint Visibility Gaps: Analyzes your site, competitors, and customer data to find precise ranking opportunities. 2. Craft the Solution: Automatically stages technical fixes and generates policy-aligned content in your brand's voice. 3. Integrate with CMS: Instantly deploy fixes and content to your site, driving new leads in days, not months.

Helping companies rank in AI search

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

We built a tool that helps companies appear in the answers generated by AI search engines like ChatGPT. Our product analyzes a company's website, competitors, and customer data to find gaps in AI visibility, then automatically stages technical fixes and creates content that matches the brand's voice and policies. Finally, it integrates directly with the company's CMS to deploy changes quickly and generate new leads within days.

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

We live and work in New York City, NY, and we plan to keep the company based here after YC.

Explain your decision regarding location.

New York is where we've lived and built Mimos from the start. The city gives us access to customers and partners relevant to B2B SaaS and AI focus, so it's a natural base for growth.
