looking to hire a few interns for @BellmanAi. Can onboard within the week. Apply and dm as well! ycombinator.com/companies/bell…

If anyone has been an FDE in the past or knows any FDEs would love to chat!

why does every computer at Capital One cafe have a YC *insert batch* sticker 🤦‍♂️

We’re Rovr—and we’re looking to partner with a couple of enterprises to help build internal tooling for their Forward Deployed Engineering (FDE) function. Our goal is to work hands-on and in-person with your team to understand how your FDEs operate and help design tools that

just when i thought we were done building guardrails for our agents Sam Altman comes out to drop gpt-5.1. game changer model for agents. not enough chatter about it.

nostalgia at an all time high when you come back and work UC Berkeley libraries. post-grad life is a whole different beast

gemini 3 pro is sentient. agents finally starting to reason. gemini 2.5 pro -> gemini 3 pro = gpt 3 -> gpt 4o.

someone asked me how much of my code i write. i respond 10% with no shame. not using AI to code puts you at a clear disadvantage.

i'll be at NeurIPS Conference next week. feel free to drop a dm and would love to grab coffee.

only in the bay do you go to cafes and see everyone hard at work on Thanksgiving. We are so back.

We’re building Rovr (YC W26) to be the next-gen OS for FDE + IT teams. Most companies are still running internal ops on a pile of dashboards, random scripts, and tools that should’ve been retired a decade ago. Then they wonder why things break. Here’s the part that annoys people:

Yash Jain and I were reflecting about our times at Mercor, and how easy it is to forget just how quickly sci-fi quickly turns into reality. If I told my 10 year old self my first job would be at a company that hires people to train AI to do their job… I wouldn’t have believed

moats no longer lie in technical expertise but rather in domain expertise and knowledge. enterprises need an ai-native Retool that can help non-technical teams scale out production level workflows. Zapier , n8n.io , and OpenAI agent builder are not cutting it.

when i see competitors scrambling to compete, i get so excited. it means we've hit gold and have the right shovels to win.

things are cooking 🧑‍🍳Rovr (YC W26). never felt this bullish before.

spending a week away from sf in maui makes you realize what life is really about.
