    AI Agents Managing Startups: YC-Bench Tests Profitability and Survival

    Can an AI agent run a startup for a year without going bankrupt? Turns out most can't. New benchmark from Collinear AI puts 12 models to the test. YC-Bench tasks agents with running a simulated startup over hundreds of turns: hiring employees, selecting contracts, and maintaining profitability in a partially observable environment with adversarial clients and compounding consequences. Only three models consistently surpass the $200K starting capital. Claude Opus 4.6 leads at $1.27M average final funds, followed by GLM-5 at $1.21M with 11x lower inference cost. Scratchpad usage, the sole mechanism for persisting information across context truncation, is the strongest predictor of success. Adversarial client detection accounts for 47% of bankruptcies. Long-horizon coherence, not raw intelligence, separates the winners from the bankrupt. Paper: arxiv.org/abs/2604.01212 Learn to build effective AI agents in our academy: academy.dair.ai/

    $6M+ ARR. One human employee. Almost 5,000 companies running 24/7 — while he sleeps. That's what @Bencera built with @polsia. New episode of Exponential Scale is live. If you're building with AI, this one's going to hit different. 🎧 Listen: scalebrate.com/podcast/6m-arr-with-all-agents-and-1-employee-interview-with-ben-broca-founder-of-polsia [Translated from EN to English]

    We are recruiting beta testers for Sakana Marlin🎣 This is a highly capable assistant with Deep Research that investigates over 8 hours! Behind this product lies AB-MCTS, the result of pure research projects! This is a product unique to Sakana AI, where research achievements translate into actual products👏 — Sakana AI (@SakanaAILabs) 🐟Ultra Deep Research Assistant "Sakana Marlin" – Now Recruiting Beta Testers🐟 Sakana AI has developed "Sakana Marlin," our first commercial product – an autonomous AI research assistant for business powered by our proprietary agent technology. sakana.ai/marlin-beta Sakana Marlin is an autonomous research assistant based on our unique long-term reasoning technology, capable of completing advanced business research. Key Features
    ・When given a topic, it autonomously conducts research for nearly 8 hours
    ・Automatically generates detailed research documents and summary slides
    ・Designed to replicate professional strategic research that teams of multiple people would conduct over weeks We conceived this solution to leverage AI's full potential to enable sound judgments in complex social situations. This technology fuses insights from "AI Scientist" – the automation of scientific discovery recently published in Nature magazine – with "AB-MCTS" which enables strategic exploration. This achieves "efficient reasoning scaling" where output quality improves the longer the AI thinks. We are conducting a closed beta test targeting those working daily on advanced research: strategy and business planning departments at financial institutions and corporations, consulting firms, think tanks, and similar organizations (free during the beta period). We will continuously improve based on your feedback. ▼ Apply for Closed Beta Tester Status Here
