What Outlit does

Outlit turns every customer-facing tool in your stack, like Stripe, Granola, PostHog, Slack, Gmail, Pylon, and more, into one complete, queryable customer profile. We resolve fragmented identity across mismatched records, extract structured facts and signals from unstructured interactions, and expose the result through CLI, MCP, and API. So every person and agent in your company has the full context on every customer to work from.

Customer Context for Agents

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

We build Outlit, a platform that combines data from all customer-facing tools like Stripe, Slack, Gmail, and others into one clear, queryable profile for every customer. We fix identity mismatches, extract facts from unstructured conversations, and surface all this through CLI, MCP, and API so agents always have full context.

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

We live in San Francisco and will keep the company based here after YC.

Explain your decision regarding location.

San Francisco is where we live and the hub for B2B AI startups. Being here puts us close to potential customers and the talent pool.

Is this the real Outlit YC application?

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