Scalable validation infrastructure for AI agents

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

We are building a Kubernetes-native platform that lets AI coding agents verify code automatically and at scale. Our product spins up fast, ephemeral environments on demand and runs validation workflows tailored for complex distributed systems. This helps engineering teams using AI to write code ensure merges are safe and reliable without slowing down development.

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

We are based in San Francisco and have a remote team.

Explain your decision regarding location.

We chose San Francisco because of its strong developer and startup ecosystem and better access to potential early users and partners. Remote allows us to hire well and stay flexible as a small team.
