Making RPA's easier to build

@bert_ji United airlines, heading to Ottawa.
After 24 hrs in the airport, we finally made it to Ottawa

[Saheed @sahee_d]

Being stuck at ORD for 12 hours is a different level of sad.
The most recent update is plane is here but the pilot is not 🥲

[Saheed @sahee_d]

It’s a privilege to be overwhelmed by the growth we used to wish for

[Saheed @sahee_d]

@jamesfong @superlogYC Congratulations @nicolomagnante

[Saheed @sahee_d]

We are super excited to share that @minicor_ is now backed by @pioneer_fund

[James Fong @jamesfong]

📠 @minicor_ connects AI companies to the legacy Windows desktop systems their customers actually run on. Describe a workflow, get an API endpoint, and Minicor handles the self-healing desktop automation behind it.

Here's the problem they solve. A huge share of healthcare, automotive, and financial services still runs on old desktop software (EHRs, ERPs, agency management systems) with no APIs. AI companies sign customers but can't go live, because the only way into those systems is clicking through the UI, and desktop automation at scale breaks constantly. Minicor became the layer between the AI companies and those legacy systems. They tripled their revenue during the YC batch and zero churn! What I really like is the founder insight underneath it: by sitting between the AI companies and the legacy systems, they accumulate the workflow context that could eventually let them replace the underlying software itself.

@pioneer_fund is excited to support @faizchishtie and @sahee_d on their journey. I love that they spent their entire careers doing bespoke integrations (Faizaan at YC startups, Saheed at Morgan Stanley and Ford), pivoted more than once, and kept learning until they landed on exactly the right wedge, following the playbook to success. Congrats Faiz and Saheed!

And yes, I know that's a fax machine... most of you probably don't even know what that is.

Someday soon, we will be referred to as the interface for connecting to systems that were not designed to have APIs

got our cool category on the latest forbes article covering the YC P26 batch

never thought mine and @sahee_d's life purpose was to get AI into old software...

thanks @dasha_shunina for the feature!

Meet the most promising companies from the latest @ycombinator batch 👀

One big takeaway:

AI agents need more than intelligence.
They need memory, identity, observability, compliance, insurance and power.

@connortbot @bennewgen @SaaiArora Congrats man!

[Connor Loi @connortbot]

I joined Y Combinator with 14 users, building a dev tool for myself.

Then @SaaiArora joined as CTO, and we started growing and shipping 2x faster. It forced us to rebuild product and infra from the ground up for teams, not solo devs.

We are ending the batch with >300k agent minutes per week, and teams like @mintlify, @knowunity, and @modaflows shipping through Replicas every day.

Today we're launching Replicas V2.

🚨 Introducing the world's first AI growth team:

[Saheed @sahee_d]

@rahulprakash @faizchishtie Watching game 1 of the finals live in New York must have been freaking awesome

[Paul Graham @paulg]

The startups from the spring YC batch that I did office hours with today have some of the biggest ideas I've ever encountered. There is so much more going on now than just "AI for x". Just as there was more going on during the microcomputer revolution than "software for x".

[Saheed @sahee_d]

@aryind_ Congrats!!

[Saheed @sahee_d]

Tomorrow’s customer call is going to be hella awkward now that the spurs have eliminated OKC

[Saheed @sahee_d]

RT @faizchishtie: thank you PSG for saving us from what would have been a cataclysmic event for the planet.

[Saheed @sahee_d]

A great day to not be an arsenal fan

@ShaquillexLee @_Rasheed96 🙃🙃

[Saheed @sahee_d]

Let’s go PSG !!!!
