    Mobot (YC W19) is a QA-as-a-service platform using actual mechanical robots to automate testing of repetitive functions on real mobile devices.

  • Avenue
    Avenue (w2021)Active • 8 employees • New York, NY, USA
    Avenue is a simple way for business teams to set up alerts from their database or data warehouse. Think Datadog / PagerDuty for operations teams. Operations teams create set-and-forget alerts on all their data, so they can be more proactive with their time (and monitor on more nuanced triggers than just what fits on their dashboard page). Avenue can improve response times to critical problems from several days to real-time by alerting directly on the data sources that customers already use.

  • Decent
    Decent (w2022)Active • 8 employees • New York, NY, USA
    Decent's core product,[The Box](https://decent.xyz/), enables 1-click transactions using any token across chains. For example, a user can purchase an Optimism NFT off primary or secondary sales using USDC on Arbitrum. As applications splinter across an increasing number of rollups and app chains, wallets and dapps will have to meet users at their point of liquidity vs. expecting users to jump through hoops to arrive with tokens on the correct network.

  • Optic
    Optic (s2018)Acquired • 5 employees • New York, NY, USA
    We help developers collaborate at scale and build better APIs. Optic’s open source tools makes it easy for developers to document API changes, review each other’s API changes during code review, and catch breaking changes before they reach production. **tl;dr** It’s version control but for behavior not code. We are taking the really successful ideas from Git / Code Review / CI and applying them to API descriptions and (future) other non-code artifacts. Engineers at [Snyk](https://snyk.io/) use Optic daily to make the new Snyk API great.
