The Wall Street Journal just profiled a new wave of AI founders in San Francisco—many of them YC alums—who are pushing to build the next generation of enduring companies and redefining what it means to be "hardcore."
Their intensity reflects the once-in-a-lifetime moment AI is creating. YC partner Jared Friedman calls it “a coming full circle moment”—a return to the raw energy of the early internet, only this time “AI is probably 10x as big.”

Smobi is building the AI-powered platform for branded, interactive business messaging, starting with RCS.
Customer engagement is broken. Despite the abundance of messaging channels - email, SMS, WhatsApp, in-app notifications, and voice - most brand communications feel impersonal, transactional, and spammy. The result? Engagement is at an all-time low.
RCS addresses these issues with verified, branded, and interactive messages, and it is finally here in the US. However, most businesses don’t k ...more

Quill Bills is an AI-powered medical billing agency that works with healthcare providers to significantly lower billing costs and fight every denial.
Every year, doctors lose up to 30% of their total revenue due to denied healthcare claims. Additionally, the billers who submit these claims charge 2-10% for their services. Disputing these denials is expensive, so most of this lost money is never followed up on.
Quill Bills has solved this problem by automating the medical billing process with A ...more

throxy (yc x25) has raised a $6.2M seed round to reinvent outbound sales for some of the hardest-to-reach yet most lucrative industries, including manufacturing, logistics, and medical.
Traditional sales tools, even those powered by AI, struggle to reach buyers in these sectors where decision-makers don’t have a big web presence or can’t be found on LinkedIn. As a result, sales teams often lose up to 70% of their time to repetitive prospecting instead of closing deals.
Throxy changes that. It ...more
