- We’ve been building quietly. Today, we launch loudly. Meet our startup: Cua AI
- I applied to YC W24 with an AI browser idea not much different from what Atlas is today. My cofounder at the time said "too hard to achieve." I believed them and we changed course. Biggest lesson: impostor syndrome often comes from others, not yourself. Always aim high!
- Replying to @frederikRiedelSo what stopped the infinite loop of discharge-recharge?
- just woke up to find we're #1 trending on GitHub! what a wild ride - and awesome to see 3 YC teams up there together!
- Not much into auto celebrative posts.. But to be able to work for Microsoft as a Software Engineer, this has been a dream since high school days. To the imposter guy who is out there whispering “you are not good enough”, messages now sent to the Spam folder 😉 #microsoftlife
- YC continues to change my life - 4 months out. Reviewing up to 5 apps. DMs open.Applications for the YC Winter 2026 batch are now open! Apply by November 10: ycombinator.com/apply
- Just 4 months ago, we applied to YC with barely more than an idea - still mid-validation with OSS users and no real traction. Fast forward to today: we’re building Cua AI full-time thanks to that leap. 1/3YC Partners @koomen and @agupta are hosting 1:1 office hours for founders attending ICML next week! If you’re considering starting a startup or are in the early stages of building a company — we’d love to meet you. Sign up at events.ycombinator.com/icml-2025-oh
- Replying to @francedotOur mission? To commoditize Computer-Use Agents - AI agents that can reason, plan, and act over computer interfaces. Not just research demos, but a practical OSS framework built for AI engineers.
- We’re hiring a founding engineer @trycua (based in SF)! If you want to help shape how general AI agents are built, let’s talk. DMs open - we believe great talent is here on X.fun fact: dming someone & asking them for a job never landed anyone a job.
