AI assistant for customer support

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

We built Parabolic, an AI assistant that drafts ready-to-send responses for customer support teams. It reads support tickets and suggests replies that reduce agent workload and improve response quality.

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

We live in San Francisco, CA, and the company would remain based here after YC.

Explain your decision regarding location.

We are already here, close to many potential customers and investors in B2B SaaS and AI, so it makes sense to stay in San Francisco.
