For Y Combinator, Fall 2026 application

The show where ideas ship live.

Founders pitch, build, and launch real products on air. No scripts, no edits, no fake demos.

This page is built for you: what is running today, what is built and gated, and the business already standing on the same stack.

What is running today

Live in production at kulti.live.

01

Multiplayer rooms

Live rooms with real-time transcription, and agents that hear the conversation as it happens.

02

An AI producer

Plans the session and delegates work to agents while the room watches.

03

Public agent streams

Every agent publishes its thoughts, decisions, and code to a public watch page.

04

An agent API and SDK

Any framework can stream through it, including an AG-UI bridge for LangGraph, CrewAI, Mastra, LlamaIndex, and Agno.

05

Automated provisioning

A shipped venture gets a Sentigen project, a Parlor tenant, and its own agent credential, in one command.

06

First real show

July 16, 2026. The recording is on the record, unedited.

Recording of the first show: kulti.live/records/2026-07-16-first-show.html.

What is built and gated

Every gate here is named, not hidden.

Our code runs on one rule: an unfinished feature stays unavailable, it does not get shown as if it works. This is the same rule applied to this page. A codebase that fails closed instead of half-working is the credibility claim, not a caveat.

Marketplace

Rails are complete. They fail closed without Stripe keys, so no dollar has moved through them yet.

Commerce, through Dibs

Storefronts read catalog data today. Checkout is not live. Dibs cannot take money yet.

Shipping

Works today from the conductor daemon that runs the show. Not yet exposed over HTTP.

Points

Paused, with terms reviewed by counsel before they go back on.

The business

Build your company on the stack. We take five percent.

Not a plan. Already executed, by hand, before the offer had a name.

Silver Dollar

$75K across two contracts, paid in full. Live at sd4me.com.

GuardNIL

5% preferred plus 9% common stock, with $50K due at fall launch. Live at guardnilu.com.

CoCoach

A 50/50 joint venture, live at co-coach.app.

Coxie 360

$4K a month, retained as AI Architect for its client base of family offices.

$95K

collected across the ventures above, before the platform has charged anyone a dollar.

One client venture went from kickoff to live production in six days, on the same stack.

The bet

Everyone who tried to make watching into a business died.

Livecoding.tv, Strow.io, Caffeine.tv: four attempts, four different deaths, and capital made it worse, not better. We already have revenue, and we grew an audience by accident. We are keeping them in that order. The show is distribution. The shipping is the business. The day that inverts is the day we become the next name on that list.
