AI workflow engine for reliable systems

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

Miniloop is a workflow engine that turns one-off AI prompts into structured, reusable workflows with enforced context, typed outputs, and reliable re-runs. It helps teams build AI systems that work dependably in production instead of relying on brittle, single-prompt approaches.

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

We live in New York City and Miniloop would remain based here after YC.

Explain your decision regarding location.

We are based in New York because that's where we live and work. Our product is digital and cloud-based, so we don't depend on a particular location, but NYC suits our current setup.
