These are three of the most interesting AI startups in Y Combinator's Fall 2024 batch:

1. HumanLayer

HumanLayer is an API and SDK in Y Combinator's Fall 2024 batch that enables tool-calling AI Agents to contact humans for help.

For example, HumanLayer could be used for a LinkedIn inbox manager agent that periodically checks your LinkedIn inbox, summarizes messages, and shares them with you in Slack. You can tell the agent to follow up with various prospects. Thanks to HumanLayer's @hl.require_approval() decorator, the agent will draft a message and share it in Slack for approval before sending it out.

HumanLayer has clients for Python and Typescript, is designed to work with any framework or LLM, and lets AI agents contact humans across Slack, SMS, email, and other channels.

2. Codebuff

Codebuff is a powerful CLI-based AI coding assistant in Y Combinator's Fall 2024 batch that chooses files to read automatically on each message unlike Cursor’s composer feature. There are zero clicks required– all inputs happen with your keyboard – so Codebuff allows you code at the speed of thought. Because it has full access to your terminal, Codebuff can run commands to install packages, run tests, and check for type errors.

Codebuff supports most major code stacks, but Typescript or Python-based apps usually work best.

3. Gait

Gait is an open-source collaboration layer for AI codegen in Y Combinator's Fall 2024 batch. Gait shows development teams exactly what prompts generated each line of code. It essentially plays the role of git blame for AI assistants. Gait is available as an extension for Copilot, VS Code, and Cursor.
