ExploreYC
ExploreYC (exploreyc.com) is an open-source API and web app for exploring structured company data across Y Combinator and a16z portfolios - covering 6,600+ companies with funding stage, IPO/M&A exits, founders, batch, industry, and country. Developers grab a free API key at api.exploreyc.com, read the auto-generated Swagger/REST docs (curl, Node, Python), and query companies in under 30 seconds. The accompanying web app layers in a map view, analytics dashboards, funding data, a live hiring board, and AI tools on top of the same dataset, so founders, investors, and recruiters can research the two portfolios without bulk CSV exports. It is one of the highest-ranked developer-data products on the July 2026 Product Hunt monthly leaderboard and ships as both a hosted free service and an open-source repository, making it a useful building block for any agent that reasons about startup companies.
