Strategy
Building behavioral datasets for AI agents while solving the data bottleneck problem for AI browser agents. Targeting product teams at YC startups and tech companies with a usage-based SaaS model. Leveraging Y Combinator network for rapid customer acquisition and validation.
Tactics
Raised $2M pre-seed in 36 hours through strong investor network including Weekend Fund and Browder Capital. Scaled to 30+ B2B customers during YC W26 batch by targeting fellow YC companies. Offers free trial with 400 sessions to reduce friction and demonstrate value before converting to $1,200/month plans.
