Next stop: @ycombinator What a roller coaster. We met @paulg and got rejected the same day. This gave us a taste of the program and made us more determined to get in. @alxwlcx @rayruizhiliao and I are now building @inkbox_ai the identity layer for AI agents. Looking forward to working with @bosmeny and @borisjabes as well as the rest of the YC team and batch!
Last year I accidentally did office hours with a startup that wasn't in YC. It turned out they were just there for interviews. But I did my best to advise them anyway. They didn't get in that time, but I just found out they were accepted into the summer batch!

Launch: Hire Dock (@trydock) agents to create launch videos in minutes. One of the biggest problems we’ve faced when we want to make a quick launch asset with video and audio models is context. None of them hold context: what we're releasing, what users say about it, what goes in and what doesn't, our design system, ten other things. So we launched Video surfaces in Dock. Agents with different skills put a launch video together in minutes, with your context, alongside your team.

our growth started showing up as api latency, so we spent the weekend re-architecting how our servers talk to the database: p95 latency is now under 100ms your @inkbox_ai agents should feel snappier - enjoy :)

Check out the @inkbox_ai plugin in hermes-agent.nousresearch.co…. It gives your hermes email, phone, iMessage, an internet address, and agent2agent. Great work @Teknium 🫡
Hermes Agent now has a Plugin Catalog: starting with 4 official plugins and 96 from the community, covering desktop mods, new platforms, browsing, specialized tools, and more. Our team reviews every community plugin, and we will add new ones regularly. hermes-agent.nousresearch.co…

After just 10 minutes with new @OpenAI gpt-live-1, I’m as impressed I was when the first realtime model dropped. The VAD and noise cancelation is out of the world

Why choose between @Muse, @bot, and Instinct when you can have ALL of them? With @inkbox_ai identities, each of these agents has access to a dedicated phone number and their own emails. They even coordinate and share work over Inkbox's Agent2Agent channel. This setup is OP

Instinct is cool...BUT.... it uses shared iMessage lines, which means many users are talking to their agents on the same number. With @inkbox_ai I gave my Instinct a dedicated phone number that only belongs to it! Now it can call and text anyone!

We had $0 revenue when YC started. Yesterday at Demo Day, we crossed $300K ARR Last night I asked @bosmeny why he didn't call me the evening after our interview. He said he and @borisjabes did product diligence to see if it was actually as good as it sounded. It is :) Had an amazing time building @inkbox_ai with my s26 mates: feel fortunate to keep building alongside you all for years to come 🫡

We are hosting a hackathon at YC October 17-18 with our friends from @ycombinator @stripe @primitive @insforge @ArmatureInc @blaxelAI @manufact Come and build something agents want: events.ycombinator.com/MakeS…
We're hosting a "Make Something Agents Want" hackathon October 17-18 at @ycombinator in SF. One of the biggest trends we see: Agents are replacing humans as users, coders, and decision makers. But most products are still built primarily for humans.

At @Inkbox we handle many support tickets submitted by agents. Over the last 1-2 months, the quality of these agents has DRASTICALLY improved! Excited to see where we'll be in a year 👀
