What Mosaic does

Mosaic gives teams and their coding agents shared memory across every session, so everyone can understand what happened, why decisions were made, and pick up where someone else left off. We started as a real-time coding environment where multiple people and their agents can work together live. It went viral, defined the multiplayer AI category, and inspired frontier labs like Anthropic. Together, we’re building the infrastructure for people and agents to share context and work together.

Shared memory for teams and coding agents.

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

We built Mosaic, a platform where teams - and their coding AI agents - share memory and context across every session. It started as a real-time coding environment, letting multiple people and their AI agents work together live. Mosaic now gives everyone working - including software engineers and their agents - access to what happened, why decisions were made, and a way to pick up where anyone left off. We're making the infrastructure for humans and AI to share context, truly collaborate, and get real work done together.

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.

There is a massive concentration of engineering and AI talent, users, and partners in San Francisco. Our early users are here, and it's a natural place to build a company working on frontier AI.
