Basepilot (YC W24)

Another step closer to AGI 🤖: This week Anthropic released their latest LLM/VLM model that is able to use computers just like a human (with keyboard and mouse). 🤯 While we’ve been deep into this space at Basepilot (YC W24) building reliable AI workers that control computers over the past 10 months - this update is super exciting as it helps us to: 1. 🔑 Unlock new platforms & use-cases: We are now able to automate processes not only across browsers, but also any kind of VM, Windows, Mac, Android, iPhone, Microwave, Toaster, you name it 😜 2. 💯 Be more reliable: We were able to increase reliability and drop error rates significantly, enabling us to have fewer human fallbacks. 3. 🚀 Reduce time to automation: More seamless transition from a customer process to a reliable (!) end-to-end automation with less human touch. If you have a complex business process and were wondering whether AI can solve it, send me a message, or drop a comment and we can set you up with Basepilot (YC W24) right away! 🙌🏼

Y Combinator Demo Day - Part 2 Basepilot (YC W24) is presenting today. See you there! 👨🚀 👨🚀 🚀 Let's gooo!!! Best of luck to all teams presenting today!! You got this ❤️

Super excited to now officially share that Ken Hendricks and I got into the current Y Combinator W24 batch and what we’ve been cooking on at Basepilot (YC W24) since we moved to San Francisco earlier this year. 💡 With Basepilot we create AI employees to automate repetitive browser work, in minutes. We make it as simple as possible for anyone in a company to automate their own mundane workflows - just by showing it once. 🚀 Since the batch started we’ve been constantly building and iterating with customers. Being at YC enabled us to move 10x faster, learn quicker, take the right decisions early on, and knowing when to course-correct through the invaluable advice of our group partners and the shared experiences with our batchmates. ❤️ We are extremely lucky to have such amazing group partners Harj Taggar, Emmett Shear, Diana Hu & Nicolas Dessaigne who believed in us since Day 1 — as well as all of our batchmates that have supported us along the way! We wouldn't be here without you all! ⏳ Racing up to YC demoday, we are starting fundraising next week and have a packed calendar with the world’s best investors that have strong conviction around the future of work and AI. We are super excited to see where this journey brings us - and we just got started. Let’s goo 🚀🧑🏼🚀

Basepilot (YC W24) creates AI employees to automate repetitive browser work. Currently, businesses employ teams of knowledge workers (in sales, ops, recruitment, finance, and more), that end up facing a lot of manual and repetitive processes. This leads to them wasting up to 30% of their time and resources on mundane back-office work. That’s 15 weeks a year wasted— time that could be spent on higher ROI tasks. Founded by Pascal Wieler and Ken Hendricks, Basepilot enables businesses to employ AI assistants to automate repetitive work across a browser. For example, within a few clicks and a quick demonstration, sales, finance, or recruitment teams can teach their AI assistants to automate repetitive workflows across the apps and tools they use. This enables businesses to free up time and resources for more high-value work. With Basepilot, every business can supercharge their workforce to achieve more with less. Congrats Pascal and Ken on the launch!
