We just got into @ycombinator (S26).

@khannauno and I have been friends for almost 10 years, and we'd always talked about starting something together. We'd walk around NYC talking to business owners and kept landing on the same thing: AI keeps reinventing work that already lives on a screen, but the huge service industries that run physical commerce still run on clipboards and gut feel. That's what we're fixing.

We spent the last couple months of nights and evenings grinding on a prototype. Around the tenth operator who said "wait, you can actually do that?", we knew we had something.

We're fortunate to be already working with some of the top restaurant and hospitality groups in the country.

Thank you @bradflora and @ChristinaG325 for betting on us.

Follow along — and stay tuned for the public launch.

@dr_chrisjones @ycombinator all the best!

[Arjun Chaliha @arjunjchaliha]

Good luck to the founders who got in their last minute applications for @ycombinator F26! The waiting is absolutely dreadful but it'll hit different when you hopefully see this in your inbox very soon 🤞🤞

@iHarnoorSingh That’s a great thing, competition pushes innovation

[Arjun Chaliha @arjunjchaliha]

When we talk to restaurants, owners do the math on hours and dollars saved. Then they notice something the spreadsheet doesn’t show: a GM who gets their weekends back is a GM who’s still there next year.

[Marble (YC S26) @joinmarble]

Restaurant GMs don’t stop working when their shift ends.

They spend their days off placing orders, planning prep, and managing catering for the week ahead. At the kitchen table instead of with their families.

Truffle gives them that time back.

Cajun food is 🔥🔥🔥

[Marble (YC S26) @joinmarble]

Restaurant shows are the best part of the job: a lot of eating good food and a bit of selling too 🙂

[Arjun Chaliha @arjunjchaliha]

Joining YC has truly been the best career decision I’ve ever made and I’m only halfway through my batch

YC Startup School 2026 just got going

3x bigger than last year

We made this event for first time very technical young people to come to SF and figure out if starting a company is for them

Let you in on a secret: it is

[Arjun Chaliha @arjunjchaliha]

@bradflora @llmhubdev I still feel bad about the time you walked in on me talking to AI Nicholas before our IRL office hours 🙈

Annnnd we’re back on the conference circuit this time at the Louisiana Restaurant Show

[Arjun Chaliha @arjunjchaliha]

Thats what we’re solving for at @pinchoftruffle : AI is already powering work that lives on screens but what about the real physical industries like hospitality

[Y Combinator @ycombinator]

AI is moving into the physical world.

We're excited about a new wave of startups rebuilding the systems that power the real world, from education and healthcare to defense, finance, infrastructure, and work itself.
