Elevator Pitch
Software for chemistry, biology, materials science and operations research has barely changed in decades. YC wants startups that use AI, especially test-time compute, to change how physical things are made.
Get involved
Full Description
YC notes that many software tools used in chemistry, biology, materials science and operations research haven't changed much in decades. They rely on standard methods plus PhDs to solve complex problems in drug discovery, chemical process optimization, metals and mining, and power grid optimization.
Why now: YC says test-time compute in particular is opening the door to new kinds of startups that can solve these scientific problems.
The ask: startups that use AI to transform how physical things are made, faster and more efficiently.
