thanks! I tried writing a program where if it can't find the runway online, then it tries to guess by using other values, clerk is not really in risk of ever running out of money, and so it juste ended up outputting a really high value, I just updated it so if runway is calculated to be above 20 months+ it just says not at risk
no scraping the yc startups is easy, I've already done that, its just writing and researching the actual profiles uses an internal tool (built into the website,I can trigger it from an admin dashboard) which uses tokens.
Thanks, this is all really interesting feedback, I'm mostly free right now, so il definitely try to roll out these changes soon. probably will announce them on website blog.
I just approved a whole bunch of micro businesses! I do not get payed for this, and these aren't ads, instead I do it so people can find under the radar early companies.
acessing crunchbase even if its the free version with AI agents is illegal since they have a paid API, so I need to manually get it, which is fine for now, but I eventually need to improve the pipeline.
this is pretty early stage and so I didn't want to make a ton of profiles only to have to update them later because of an issue int he generation pipeline, Im planning on adding about 800 startups every day.
hey just checked the pipeline after running, the anthropic profile looks better now. (I will roll out more updates in the next few days to keep improving accuracy)
just added a agent ledger, it shows exactly what the agents were doing during the pipeline, u can find it at the top of the sources tab. (it truncates part of the ledger sometimes though, working on fixing that bug)
I got the agents to cite sources, there's a bug with fetching the urls from the DB, the way it should work is when you hit verified it leads you to the source, working on fixing it now. Also I will try to add an agent ledger tab soon, that shows exactly what the agents were doing.
AI agents have to cite sources for each thing (there's a bug with displaying sources, it should let u click a fact and send you to where the agent got it. I'm working on fixing that right now). Users can also flag errors, and I'm going to periodically run fact-checking agents and manually go in and check info. However, obviously this will likely still not be perfect, accuracy will probably be the number 1 challenge with this site.
Sounds good! its just I used up most of my API key limits in development, and I'm keeping some so I can run improvement pipelines or fix errors, so il batch the YC companies day by day, there's 5000 companies, so il do about 800 each day for 5-6 days.
AI agents have to cite where they get stuff from, also people can flag issues, and I'm gonna run pipelines periodically to fact check pages. But yeah, with this kind of site I do agree accuracy is gonna take a lot of engineering to improve.
yeah, just spotted the error, AI agents seem to be searching for news without adding keywords like "latest", I'm updating that, and changing some system prompts, also adding a fact checking agent, and restarting the server to run an imrpovment pipeline to update these profiles. Might take a while for it to finish running though, Il try to update stuff manually till its done.
