nFactorial AI — Perplexity for researching 240+ companies from YC S24
YC S24 Demo Day is around the corner. We built a tool to help investors prepare for it. We parsed 240+ company profiles from YC’s website, founder LinkedIns, company homepages (including images), YouTube, etc.

Great tool for investors! Would be amazing to give additional data points from the market, to beat crunchbase.
Congrats on the launch! Already excited to see how it goes from here – can imagine how useful it can be (both for founders and investors) having this for all of the companies on crunchbase, all historical YC companies data! Rooting for you!
Is it just for YC companies or it will extend beyond YC and more like Crunchbase? Looks good though, congratulations on the launch!
@pradhumn_vijayvargiya Thank you, Pradhumn! Just YC S24 companies for now. All great ideas. More soon!
Congrats on this launch! This tool sounds super useful for investors and those diving into YC startups. I’m curious - do you support any other accelerators or programs outside of YC, or plan to? Would be cool to see this expanded.
@lucasbenjaminfoster Thank you, Lucas. Wonderful ideas. No support for now. But would love to expand what we have!
This looks super helpful for prepping for YC Demo Day. Will definitely be trying this out to save some research time.
@declanxavierholbrook Thank you, Declan! Let us know how we can improve it!
This tool is a fantastic resource for investors prepping for YC S24 Demo Day! The ability to quickly query information like serial founders and alumni networks is incredibly useful for making informed decisions. I also appreciate the option for a more detailed, researched answer, which adds depth to the insights while balancing speed.
I’m the founder of Toolful.ai, and I’ve already added this tool to our curated list of essential resources for investors. You can check it out here: https://toolful.ai/t/nfactorial-ai. Great work – looking forward to seeing how this continues to evolves.
@zoevivianthornton Thank you so much for kind words, Zoe! Will keep you updated!
No problem at all,@suleimenov No problem at all! I'm happy you appreciated the words, and I’ll be excited to stay updated with everything. Keep me posted!Keep me posted.
Okay, now this looks interesting. The data parsing feature is great. A few questions -
- Can investors filter startups by specific criteria like industry or funding stage?
- What's the accuracy rate of the 'pro' answers?
- How often is the data updated?
Anyway, good luck for your launch!
@davidcarter Thank you, David. 1) Yes, absolutely; 2) "Pro" is a thorough answer with a minor hallucination as we use GPT-4o mini for speed / price; 3) Will be updating the data regularly until YC Demo Day.
The comprehensive approach is exactly what’s needed in today’s fast-moving investment landscape. Great work!

@jasminec exactly, the more comprehensive research the better returns on investment!
Parsing through YC’s startup data and providing insights into top companies will definitely streamline the investment research process. This tool looks like a real asset for my investors.
Solid product - congrats on the launch! Loved the loading/status messages, and found the insights from deep search useful. What did you use to build it?
