What Tiny does
At Tiny, we’re building a new kind of ERP system for factories where AI agents automate repetitive workflows. Made for the four million factories still primarily relying on Excel. LLMs now unlock their troves of siloed unstructured data. We see a massive opportunity to build a compound startup and, beyond that, tap into network effects to unlock just-in-time manufacturing across entire supply chains.

Tiny
ERP system for factories
We are building Tiny, an ERP system for factories that automates repetitive workflows using AI agents. Our platform helps factories that still rely heavily on Excel to unlock their siloed, unstructured data with large language models. This automation reduces manual work and inefficiencies in manufacturing operations.
We live in Singapore, Singapore, and the company would remain based here after YC with remote work as needed.
We chose Singapore because it's a manufacturing hub with many factories stuck in old workflows. Being here lets us stay close to our early users and understand their real problems intimately.
