Coasty

YCombinator

The computer-use agent that doesn't break on real software. We will…

Coasty is a computer use agent that does real work inside softwares, companies already run. New web apps, old desktop tools, the legacy systems nobody wants to touch. You hand it a workflow and it owns the outcome. Most agents demo well and break the moment they hit real software. They get 18 steps out of 20 right, misclick once, and everything after is garbage. Coasty catches when it goes off track and fixes itself mid-task instead of starting over. It handles the messy parts, benchmarks never show. Permission dialogs, surprise pop-ups, a modal that steals focus, a page that loads slow. When a vendor pushes an overnight update and moves half the menus, brittle scripts break by morning. Coasty reads the screen instead of recording clicks, so it adapts and keeps going. It also checks its own output and leaves a time-stamped trail you can replay. We won't pretend it gets every task right. Nothing automating this work does. What matters is what happens when something breaks. It catches the mistake, fixes what it can, and flags what it can't so a person can step in. Nothing fails quietly. That's what lets a team trust it on the work where a silent error gets someone fired. We scored 82% on OSWorld, which puts us among the most reliable agents out there. Reliability is the whole product, not a feature.

CodeCombat

YCombinator

Game that teaches computer science to middle and high school kids.

CodeCombat is a multiplayer programming game for learning how to code. With thousands of schools and millions of students, we are bringing K12 computer science education to everyone, regardless of gender, race, or background. Everyone should have the opportunity to learn. The ultimate goal of CodeCombat is to bring more users into the field of computer programming by making the logic and syntax more accessible and enjoyable to learn. The end game is to educate a whole new generation of computer programmers that started their journey by slaying ogres and defending their castles from oncoming enemy hordes. We teach Python, JavaScript, and other languages directly in the browser. Teachers with no computer science background can get started in five minutes. In a world where all programmers have had to be second-language learners, do you want your students to become native speakers of code? Let's chat about bringing CodeCombat to your school!

Anyone can create real games with AI

CodeWisp lets anyone build and publish web games using plain-English prompts. Traditional game development requires learning complex engines, managing assets and code, and following rigid workflows, making it slow and inaccessible for most people. With CodeWisp, users describe the game they want. CodeWisp generates the game’s code, structure, and assets, and users can refine it with follow-up prompts. This makes it possible to go from idea to a playable web game in minutes, without prior game-development experience.

The AI Reservation Team for Hotel Groups

€5,000 in additional bookings. In 4 weeks. For a 53-room hotel. We help hotel groups turn missed calls into bookings. This it how it works: - They send their missed calls to us. - Our AI answers and takes the booking. - The booking goes right into their PMS. Even with call centers and central reservation departments they are still losing 5% of calls. That is a seven figure revenue leak. Why us? We used to build software that can’t fail for massive companies. We started Codyco after a friend told us how much money he was losing from missed calls. We built the first version just for him. Now we give hotel groups the reliable AI they need, so they never lose a booking on the phone again.
