LATO (YC S26)

Agent-native research and simulations for investors

[Tymek @tymek_st]

Today, we're introducing @lato_ai, backed by @ycombinator.

We are changing how investments are made.

Our first focus is commercial due diligence (CDD): currently private equity spends on a McKinsey report ~$500k which takes weeks.

To give you the scale: 36k CDDs were done in 2025, which is c.$18bn spent a year.

Based on 200+ experts calls and multiple studies over last 4 weeks our agents did, we know that:
1) Voice agents do better expert calls than people
2) Research agents find more relevant information and synthesise it systematically

With our approach we do research on any company or market in days at a fraction of the cost.

We already work with leading funds that push the frontier.

I was at @paulg house yesterday and forgot to take a picture with him as the only thing in my mind was his input for @latolabs_io.

Not sure how to remember next time.
