Webhound

Research agents built for depth over speed @ycombinator S23

[Webhound @WebhoundAI]

Agents are lazy at research. They stop at the first confident answer, even when more research could change it.

Webhound is your agent’s research engine. You use budget to decide how much research a question deserves.

We gave it $5 to investigate a border wall contract. It found an unreported $18M change.

This is a fantastic product for truly deep research, substantially better than just Codex + Parallel/Exa. Extremely comprehensive results. I highly recommend checking them out.

@jamiequint Thanks Jamie!

We've been ramble-coding for months at Webhound, so I wrote this up on some things we've learned from using dictation apps to prompt agent

Get the Founder Stack here: https://t.co/yhtb0wpXYo

$500, and you get $100 of Webhound credit on top to keep researching after.

[Webhound @WebhoundAI]

We asked 50 top investors what they expect founders to know about their space, then distilled the answers into the Founder Stack.

10 reports backed by ~15 continuous hours of research that go deeper on your market, customers, competitors, wedge, upside, and the case against you than anything else out there.

If you don't learn something new, you get your money back.

Most AI tools hallucinate and hope you don't notice.

Webhound now shows the exact tool call chain behind every claim. Every search. Every page. Every python script.

Go try to catch it lying. We don't think you will.

@karpathy Would really recommend you try out Webhound, it's essentially what you're describing. https://t.co/Qc67SxXKe5

@karpathy Keep an eye out for our next release this week ;)

[Michael Seibel @mwseibel]

As a “business guy” I’m slightly embarrassed to share what I’ve been vibe coding. I’ve built a pipeline for doing deep research on San Francisco public policy issues using Manus, https://t.co/5JuOEAIx7r, and Dropbox. When I share I hope you all will have a ton of useful advice (instead of flaming me).

Here's a demo from one of our founders Theo on how we used Webhound Agent to create the Claude skill that one-shotted this video

Introducing Webhound Agent: Your AI research assistant powered by the best deep research money can buy.

Most deep research products decide for you when to stop — and since they're subscription-based, the less work they do per query, the more they profit. Webhound flips that. You set the budget and Webhound keeps searching until it's used. $5 or $100 — every dollar goes into deeper search, more sources, and real verification.

Today we're launching Webhound Agent — a full research assistant with a workspace. Start research from chat. Analyze results with code and follow-up questions. Organize everything in folders. Run multi-step pipelines. The agent remembers your preferences and gets better the more you use it.

Pay-as-you-go. No subscriptions. $5 free to start. See real example reports at different budgets: https://t.co/5WVx1riLjJ

A lot of people asking "why webhound?"
As one of the founders here's why imo
