Y Combinator's 2025 batch emphasizes agentic AI startups
Y Combinator just dropped its Spring 2025 lineup, featuring 70 fresh AI startups—each scoring a $500,000 boost. Standouts like Cohesive (CRM for blue-collar industries), Docket (AI agent for web testing), Sava (sheet metal tech), and VoiceOS (AI-driven hiring) show how YC is backing innovation across all kinds of fields.
TL;DR
YC's influence extends beyond the US
YC isn't just about new companies—it's also mixing up its leadership, with Dalton Caldwell stepping into a partner emeritus role and Jon Xu plus Andrew Miklas joining as general partners. The accelerator's impact goes way beyond the US, inspiring similar programs in places like India and even weighing in on big tech debates, like its recent stance against Google's dominance in the startup world.
