Congrats to @FlyaKiet, @avimakesrobots, and Satya on the $11.5M seed led by USV, and on the new name!!
Paradev (formerly Superset) is the open-source IDE for running hundreds of coding agents in parallel. Hundreds of thousands of developers in 180 countries and one in eight Fortune 500 companies already use it, less than a year after launch.
Let's gooo!

投資先のUltrametricが、スタートアップ運営を自動化するための共通基盤「Open Startup Repo」を公開しました！
決済、キャップテーブル、給与など100領域のSaaSを「AIエージェントからどれだけ操作しやすいか」でランキング化し、会社設立などの業務プロセスを手順ごとに分解して、国ごとの違いや法律、必要書類、データ定義まで整理しています。すべてオープンソースで、誰でも使えて誰でも改善に参加できます。
目指しているのは「会社を設立して月$1Mを稼げるようにして」とAIに頼めば、運営が回っていく世界です。エージェントがどのサービスを選び、どう使うかを決める参照先になれれば、AI時代のスタートアップの土台になり得ると考えています。
@judegomila @tylerlastovich @ultrametricai おめでとう！

I'd like to share a little about what I've been working on at my new company @ultrametricai with my cofounder @tylerlastovich. We have been exploring how we could automate the startup itself, leaving founders with more time to focus on their exact mission.
Enter our first rtup Repo: github.com/ultrametricai/…
A common foundation for transparent automation of the startup.
After close to 20 years in silicon valley, backing hundreds of amazing founders & startups, being in the trenches of founding Heyzap (YC08), then solo founding @golden, going through 2 acquisitions and working behind the scenes with some of the iconic companies today, I'm witnessing the largest change to how we work I could have imagined - a truly monumental era of creative abundance.
I believe the next generation of companies will largely run themselves: from operations, code, product upgrades, growth, vendor control & selection, process execution, special situations, strategy etc etc. That leaves founder time for 'the art' at the very niche core: the (currently) unautomatable, the special leaps humans tend to make, and north star setting.
We want founders to go super deep into the main problem they are trying to solve and not get held up doing anything else, from searching for domain availability with trademark checks to setting their company up, to running their processes on autopilot.
So to help that broad foundational layer for starting and running a company, we have spent around a year exploring how to help founders focus on their mission across different verticals, geos, stages and initial starting conditions.
Our first few attempts at making something useful actually failed as the market and AI was moving so fast; it just got absorbed into the models or other product releases. We saw polsia happen, openclaw, then grokbot, muse, dots, etc era as the astras, fables, opuses, kimis and jevs rolled out. What seemed to have been missing along the way was a common repo to identify, unify, open and normalize all the lego bricks that startups have to interact with (vendors, processes, business logic, law, best practices, surface areas, art of the possible).
As the number of software vendors blew up, the interfaces to drive them multiplied, the international startup founder blew up as silicon valley moved from a specific location to a state of mind and global movement. Unlimited pre seed funding in unlimited vertical sub markets and permutations has brought us to the age of infinity but we have yet to achieve being able to type into an agent a very simple sentence with very complex implications 'just setup my company and make $1m/m'. We have ended up with a hybrid mismash of computer use, API calls, plugins, shifting surface areas (API/MCP/CLI/plugins/chats/musish futures), and changing model absorption to vendor balance making it an exciting and unstable time.
As our first step we started to rank all the vendors that startups interface to when going about their journey in terms of how agentically controllable they are via their APIs, MCPs, CLIs etc and computer use compatibility as we are largely switching from a UI driven world to the agentic control surfaces and onto full automation. We have 100 ranking areas you can check out with an overall open ranking here: ultrametric.ai/overall
Then we looked at the processes that startups do and how the vendors rank for the sub steps or process as a whole and how this changes across geos. Open processes: ultrametric.ai/processes
Then we started to hack on an open repo for startups that would contain all the components we are going to need for a common foundation for founders across the globe even if our gov processes vary so much from Bengaluru to SF or Lisbon to Shenzhen. The founder spirit is geo-invariant.
We have looked at special founder/startup situations, the business logic that will make open modules for the startup that we can hack on together, ranked law firms, government services and interfaces, stacks that go well together. We have mapped the law and lore that maps to startups and the schemas that make up the data objects and documents. But also the open documents and the missing gaps. MUCH TO DO.
All the BS processes and fluff work that founders waste their time on needs to goto zero. I want to see more supersonic planes, cancer drugs, seemingly impossible missions done and increase the bang for buck founders have with their funding.
This is a work in progress and we are keen for the community to come hack on the repo with us here: github.com/ultrametricai/…
Lets get into the structure of the general repo and the visualizations we made on ultrametric.ai site with example links:
- Open rankings: ultrametric.ai/overall
- Open rankings example (online payments): ultrametric.ai/arena/payments
- Open ranking example 2 (cap table): ultrametric.ai/arena/equity-m…
- Open processes: ultrametric.ai/processes
- Open process example (Incorporate C-Corp) ultrametric.ai/processes/inco…
- Open situations that founders face: ultrametric.ai/situations
- Open startup simulator (you can test our different initial starting conditions): ultrametric.ai/startup-sim
- Open modules (e.g. cap table, payroll logic etc - we'd love help improving these) ultrametric.ai/open-modules
- Open law (we are interested in how law changes the processes, situations and normalizing this over time) ultrametric.ai/open-law
- Open lore (we are interested in the historical lore of startups, the rules of thumb and heuristics that might guide your agent): ultrametric.ai/open-lore
- Open fields (we are interested in how the schema for the data connects to the open modules, business logic, open documents and artifacts of each process eg how is a EIN defined?) ultrametric.ai/fields
- Open documentation (eg SAFE notes and missing! docs) ultrametric.ai/open-documents
We have looked at YC companies as well in terms of which ones do well agentically: ultrametric.ai/yc
We are interested in stacks and how people are changing their work: ultrametric.ai/stacks
We are interested in what is automatable and where the agentic ceiling is currently and how to push that up in all areas: ultrametric.ai/rankings/proce…
There is more for you to explore and a lot more coming in terms of how you will be able to navigate business in an optimal way in your chosen surface area; whether you are hanging in grokbot, dots, muse, claude, terminal, chat, or whatever is coming up in this exciting time.
We have a lot of data to collect, clean up and help agents navigate the vast landscape emerging functionality the entire startup ecosystem has to offer.
Come join us getting your vendor in, ranked or that access pattern you have wanted or getting the data more accurate in terms of which vendor is best for a process or steps. Or open a module of something that currently cost money that could be free.
Also come play in our discord for founders and join the chaos (we can solve each others issues including fund raising tips from me personally): discord.com/invite/3aHky83…
It's time to lift all the boats in the harbor and I'm extremely excited as to what the community of hackers and painters will hack into the repo, what asks they will have and whether we can shift normalization of processes globally, gov agentic interfaces and have common repo for founders that grows over time. I expect a lot of experimentation along the way, bugs and upside...
I appreciate our backers having faith in us as well from @ycombinator with @garrytan to @immad doing a sizable check (congrats on $1bn rev homie) to @darbyw (congrats on Stripe buying @clerkyinc), @drewhouston form @Dropbox and also @pioneer_fund @tomerlondon cto @GustoHQ and hopefully this is 'boring' and complex enough for Charlie Songhurst :> @delingpole @Liquid2V @ivolo from @segment @ryanpowe @sonicaghi of @kong @DellyTamer+ other supporters (@michaelwfrank, Fundamental ventures and if I missed you sorry moving fast!).
[And don't worry, all vendor rankings are open scoring methods so no favors are being done if someone backed us and is a vendor they have to compete with how agentic and automatable they are just like anyone else.]
PS: we have bugs and many quality upgrades to make but thought better to go out early and fix as a community.
PPS: we have other stuff to launch we just thought this was a great place to start and have 200 PRs coming out pretty soon but I still want to know what is broken or doesnt make sense or inaccurate.
Special thanks to current and past team members for getting us here and all the experiments we did you know who you are.

Announcing the @pally Trusted Pals network.
Finding and asking for intros takes a long time, and LinkedIn doesn’t know how strong each connection is.
Pally is different. It connects to all your platforms, including iMessage, WhatsApp, LinkedIn, and X. It builds a map of all luding their strength.
Now, for your friends and teammates, you can make them a Trusted Pal, and you get full access to search over each others' network and request intros.
You can also customize extra permissions by person, depending on what you want to share automatically.
To celebrate this, I’m gonna do something crazy: I’m giving all of you FULL ACCESS to my network.
I’m a super-connector, with a strong network in the US and UK of many of the top founders and investors. Join me as a Trusted Pal, search over my network, and request an intro today!
Reply below and I'll DM you my invite link (must be following).
This will only be live for a couple days so it doesn’t go too wild, be fast if you want in!

Foursquare創業者のDennis Crowleyが、会社の最後について長文を書いています。
17年続いたFoursquareは先月買収されましたが、株主にとっては$0という結末でした。一時は年間売上$100Mを超えていた会社です。
その中で彼は、キャリア最大の過ちは「会社に恋をしたこと」かもしれない、と振り返っています。会社への思いが強すぎて、もう必要とされていない段階でも長く留まり、自分が次に進むことを許せなかったと。
一方で、愛せるものを、好きな仲間と、喜んでくれるユーザーのためにつくる経験は人生で最高のものだったとも書いています。だからこそ、会社がまだExitを迎えていないことを理由に、自分自身の区切りや次の一歩を先延ばしにしないでほしいと。
日本でも、成長の見通しが変わった後も追加調達を重ねて続けている会社は少なくないと感じます。続けることが正解の場合もありますし、それ自体を否定するつもりはありません。ただ、会社を大切に思うことと、自分の人生の時間を大切にすることは両立できるし、区切りをつけることも一つの誠実な選択だと思います。
創業者の方には、ぜひ一度読んでみてほしい文章です。

it's been 10 weeks of 50% week-over-week growth with pancake.ai
no matter how many startups you’ve built, the next one still makes you feel like a beginner. there’s always something you’ve never done before that you suddenly need to figure out.
jumping out of a a guinness world record. it's all fun!
but the best part is still realizing you’ve built something other people think is worth paying for.
more to come!

Foursquare創業者のDennis Crowleyが、会社の最後について長文を書いています。
17年続いたFoursquareは先月買収されましたが、株主にとっては$0という結末でした。一時は年間売上$100Mを超えていた会社です。
その中で彼は、キャリア最大の過ちは「会社に恋をしたこと」かもしれない、と振り返っています。会社への思いが強すぎて、もう必要とされていない段階でも長く留まり、自分が次に進むことを許せなかったと。
一方で、愛せるものを、好きな仲間と、喜んでくれるユーザーのためにつくる経験は人生で最高のものだったとも書いています。だからこそ、会社がまだExitを迎えていないことを理由に、自分自身の区切りや次の一歩を先延ばしにしないでほしいと。
日本でも、成長の見通しが変わった後も追加調達を重ねて続けている会社は少なくないと感じます。続けることが正解の場合もありますし、それ自体を否定するつもりはありません。ただ、会社を大切に思うことと、自分の人生の時間を大切にすることは両立できるし、区切りをつけることも一つの誠実な選択だと思います。
創業者の方には、ぜひ一度読んでみてほしい文章です。

Foursquare was acquired last month. The outcome was disappointing. It's taken me a while to write this, but I think I'm finally done grieving it. Here are some thoughts on our final years, an effort to honor the team who helped build & maintain FSQ's legacy, and my attempt to finateendrama.substack.com/p/some-final-w…

21st (@21st_dev) makes it easy to ship frontier AI agents like Claude Code and Codex inside your own product.
Serafim Korablev and Sergey Bunas (@sergeybunas) first built 21st.dev, a React component registry that 1.4M developers use to build UI for AI apps.
When ents onto Claude Code, the agents got better overnight, but running them in production was brutal. Sandboxes, credential security, streaming, billing and observability all had to be built from scratch.
So at YC in Winter 2026 they turned that infrastructure into the 21st Agents SDK. You define your agent in TypeScript and deploy it with one command.
Backers include Y Combinator (@ycombinator), Pioneer Fund (@pioneer_fund), Hustle Fund (@HustleFundVC) and Taro Fukuyama (@taro_f).
@guilleflorvs and I backed them through GR Angel.

Didit (@didit) is one API for identity and fraud.
Alberto (@albertorosasg) and Alejandro Rosas (@_arosasg) are identical twins from Barcelona. They spent their lives impersonating each other. Now AI can copy anyone's face and voice, so they built a fast way to prove who you are.
r 2026 batch with KYC, KYB, transaction monitoring and wallet screening behind a single API, with public pricing.
In May they announced their seed round:
▫️ Y Combinator (@ycombinator), Pioneer Fund (@pioneer_fund), Orange Collective and Rebel Fund (@RebelFund_VC)
▫️ Angels including Tomer London of Gusto and Taro Fukuyama (@taro_f) of Fond

投資先のContext devがGeneral Calatystリードで$9Mを調達しました！
AIエージェントが仕事をするには、ウェブ上の情報を正確に読み取る必要があります。ところが多くのサイトはJavaScriptで描画され、ボット対策もあるため、単純に取得すると中身が空のまま返ってくることも少なくありません。Context devは検索、スクレイピング、クロール、変更監視を1本のAPIにまとめ、どんなサイトでもエージェントがそのまま使える構造化データに変換します。
全リクエストを本物のブラウザ経由で処理することで高い成功率を実現しており、すでに800社以上が利用しています。
@mynameisyahia @getcontextdev おめでとう！

仕事用AIアシスタントのTownに投資しました！
Townは、今一番ホットなAIパーソナルアシスタント分野のトップランナーの1社です。
社員一人ひとりに付く「Townie」が、その人の人間関係や文章の書き方まで学習し、メールやチャットで人間と同じようにやり取りしながら仕事を進めます。すでに数千社が利用していて、今回の調達ではTownie同士が連携してチーム全体の仕事を進める「マルチプレイヤー」化に注力します。
実は僕自身も個人で愛用しています。特に日本語のメールは敬語などもあって作成に時間がかかりますが、Townを使い始めてから生産性がかなり上がり、メールを返すスピードも変わりました。
日本でも間違いなくさらに広がっていくと感じています。
@jgreze @tonydevincenzi @TownAI のみんな、おめでとう！

The biggest bottleneck at work is waiting on each other.
Today Town is announcing its $108M Series B, co-led by Forerunner Ventures and Menlo Ventures, to fix it with multiplayer AI assistants for work.
Most AI assistants are built for one person. Work doesn't happen alone. I player. Everyone at a company gets a Townie. Townies ask each other questions, share only what their person would share, and do the work. The more a team works together, the more useful Townies get.
What's the thing you're always waiting on a teammate for?

Congrats to @jgreze, @tonydevincenzi and the whole Town (@TownAI) team on the $108M Series B!!
I use my Townie every day, mostly for email, and it has genuinely become one of the AI tools I rely on most.
Making Townies work with each other across a team is the obvious next step.
Excited to be on this ride with you!
