Чем занимается Moonshot

We want to bring AI agents to a billion people. To do this, we believe it needs to be 1. proactive and 2. personal. A billion people already carry the right device, but none of them have the right connector. Moonshot is personal intelligence that lives on your iPhone and listens to you 24/7. It continuously builds up a greater understanding of you through constantly listening and building context. It just pays deep attention, the way a good friend does. Through this, Moonshot monitors your conscious and subconscious life, figuring out what you need before you know, reminding you about open loops, identifying life and emotional trends before you recognize it, and covering a lot more of what we gloss over in daily life. For fifty years, software has waited to be asked. We think tools are just good enough to flip this, and the next great software will provide value before asking for something first. We're doing it through Moonshot. Our thesis is simple: you're only living half your life. The half that you actively remember. The other half just evaporates into your subconscious: what you said, felt, promised, and forgot. It's the more interesting half, and until now nothing could catch it, making it not actionable. Moonshot catches your subconscious half and understands you well enough to take actions on your behalf. Take life personally. The iOS app is designed around ambient listening and clear user control. Short microphone chunks are sent securely to Moonshot's private transcription service and deleted when transcription finishes. Text and selected context can be sent through Moonshot's server to a model when the app needs to understand a moment. Nothing leaves without your yes. The privacy policy explains every data path, stored copy, permission, and deletion control in detail. Moonshot is in early access. Join the waitlist to hear when access opens, read more about the team and product on the About page, or use the Contact page for a direct written response from the Moonshot team. Let's make it a Moonshot.

Agents for the rest of us.

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

We're building Moonshot, a personal AI agent that lives on your iPhone, listens 24/7 (with clear controls), and builds deep context about your life. It's designed to be both proactive and personal, surfacing reminders, insights, and emotional trends before you even realize you need them. The agent pays attention the way a friend might, capturing not just what you consciously remember but also the subconscious cues most people forget. Everything runs with strong user privacy: nothing leaves without your approval, and all data paths are explained in plain language in the app's privacy policy.

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

We're based in Seattle, WA, and the company would continue from here after YC.

Explain your decision regarding location.

We're in Seattle because that's where the team lives and works best. It's a great city for building consumer and AI products.

Часто задаваемые вопросы

Это реальная заявка Moonshot в YC?

Нет. Y Combinator держит поданные заявки в приватности. Это реконструкция: реальные вопросы формы YC, ответы на которые основаны на публичных данных Moonshot (заметки о запуске, бэкграунд фаундеров, описание продукта). Это показывает, как компания вроде Moonshot представила бы себя YC, а не текст, который они подали.
