From the AI breakthroughs of the last few months, a wave of new startup opportunities have been unlocked. Here are some of the ideas we think will be especially interesting to build now: ycombinator.com/rfs
A Secure AI App Store @garrytan There is a small window today for a startup to create an AI App Store that provides computer use APIs and local LLaMA versioning with secure privacy controls, discovery, and payments. We hope you might build it.
Compliance and Audit @t_blom 4 million people in the US & Europe work in compliance & audit. LLMs will automate the testing that these folks currently do by hand: spotting anomalies in data, identifying incomplete records, or highlighting contradictory policies.
DocuSign 2.0 @mwseibel There is an opportunity with AI to finally make the process of filling out and signing documents delightful.
Browser/Computer Automation @snowmaker AI agents can now browse the web and use desktop applications. It means that every website and every app now effectively has an API, and any workflow that people can do on a computer can be automated.
@ycombinator @mwseibel sorry yc even if u bring michael in docusigns valuation still makes no sense send it to 0, swiftly
@ycombinator @mwseibel May I recommend not using the “DocuSign” name specifically in your public pitch?
@ycombinator @mwseibel The “DocuSign 2.0” YC application from a year ago 🤫
@ycombinator @mwseibel Mike lost some serious pounds, looking good bro!
@ycombinator @mwseibel Using AI for serious documents is a mistake.
@ycombinator @mwseibel what do you think the headcount is gonna be at docusign 2.0 @yacineMTB
@ycombinator @mwseibel I think signwith.co is already doing it iirc..
@ycombinator @mwseibel Hey @martymadrid isn’t this what you’ve done?
@ycombinator @mwseibel I mean, this is Ironclad right? Not 100% but this space is incredibly crowded already
@ycombinator @mwseibel is this a michael seibel AI clone?
@ycombinator @mwseibel Do you need a startup to implement a feature?
Drafton.io fits for Docusign 2.0, interesting to see something by YC that we’re already building from last one year as we have already identified this problem very early and we're the ones who faced this problem personally so now we're solving this problem for ourselves.
@ycombinator @mwseibel Wait, are you guys using your AI avatars to announce this 🧐
@ycombinator @mwseibel Dear @mwseibel we're building this with popform.ai
@ycombinator @mwseibel @catalinmpit Maybe you should pitch.
@ycombinator @mwseibel We've been building SignWith.co for the past couple of months - a simple, pay-per-document alternative to DocuSign. Our next big releases focus on AI and streamlining the document lifecycle. Seeing YC call for a "DocuSign 2.0" is huge validation for us!
@ycombinator @mwseibel @AgreeHQ is already here
@ycombinator @mwseibel Oh no, we're going to have a lot of competition from the next YC batch.
@ycombinator @mwseibel So… can I just make all of the projects yall want, or do you only want one?
