What Redouble AI does

At Redouble AI we have developed Silverlake, a Java-native agentic AI operating system for enterprise. While other AI solutions force enterprise stakeholders to embrace unfamiliar concepts in an unfamiliar language, we do the opposite: we slot agentic AI right into the enterprise comfort zone - by mapping all agentic concepts onto established enterprise primitives in their own language, their own security model, their own infrastructure. It’s like moving from Bitcoin to Stablecoin, just for agentic AI. When we did YC we realized there was no framework or platform that gave us as enterprise and workflow automation veterans what we needed to build truly secure, reliable, and scalable agentic solutions for mission-critical workflows. That’s why we spent the past 18 months building Silverlake from the ground up. We empower the 12 million Java engineers worldwide to write and deploy their own AI, securely, at scale. They define an agent in a few lines of code, and our platform does everything else, from orchestration to permission control, from auditability to rate limiting, from long-running agents to autonomous coordinated networks that perform the work of entire departments. Silverlake has been developed with design partners across biopharma, insurance and financial services. For example, our agentic workflows write submission-ready Clinical Study Reports that are hundreds of pages long, analyze entire datarooms full of financial and operational data for private equity investors, and automate claims processing for a large insurance player. We are backed by Y Combinator, Exponential, Transpose Platform, Tiny VC, and the Oxford Seed Fund and advised by Java inventor James Gosling and automation guru Professor Christian Terwiesch.

Java-native multi-agentic AI OS for enterprise

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

We built Silverlake, a Java-native agentic AI operating system designed to fit into enterprise workflows and infrastructure. It lets Java engineers define AI agents with just a few lines of code, then handles orchestration, permissions, audit logs, and scaling automatically. Our platform supports long-running autonomous agents and complex networks that can automate entire departments' work, from clinical reports to financial data analysis and insurance claims.

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

We live mainly in New York, NY and partially remote. Post-YC, the company will remain based in New York with a distributed team.

Explain your decision regarding location.

We are enterprise-focused and rooted in established Java ecosystems, which are strong in New York. Staying here gives us access to partners and domain experts we've worked closely with during our development.
