Why a combination of the combinator starts to deal with AI agents in AI for windows left off and pivoted

A Startup called Pig-pig.dev That was the winter in the winter of the combinator 2025 batches working in a potential revolutionary idea: Ai Agentic Tech to control a Microsoft Windows Desktop.

But in May, the announced announcing He left tech and held his company to something different from the race: Muscle MearA cache system for AI agents that allow them to offload repeated tasks.

An earlier stage YC company pivoting is nothing in the ordinary, of course. What is interesting – and what aroused a dynamic conversation on Thursday And combinator podcast – Is that the pig worked on the use of the computer, one of the major areas that should be resolved for agents to be true to workers. Another company – and another YC Alum – facing that for the browser is called the browser using.

Using the browser used in popularity when the tool tool of the Chinese tool, which depends on it, THE VIRAL. The browser uses buttons buttons and elements on a website to make it a larger melting, helping AI understand how the website is navigating and using the website.

During the Podcast, released Thursday, the companion Tom Blomfield likened the pork used in the browser for Windows desktops for Windows desktops. Podcast shows Amjad Massad, the Builder and CEO of Popular VIBE-CODING STARTUP UP REPLIT.

Massad, Blomfield, and YC Partner David Lib talks about how long the computer uses at times, instead of minutes, one more harmony for agents. As the contextual window for the reasoning is growing, the precision of the Anten Awarey as the LLM costs.

“The advice that I will provide founder today is using the browser to use or windows the pork and try to apply that to business, which is bltriferry.

Massad agreed, “Once the technology works, both companies really do, so good,” he said.

But woe, the pork Erik Dunteman has stopped the idea. In his post in May he explained that when he first wanted to run a cloud product (a common way to deliver AI Tech). But his customers don’t like it. So he tried to sell it as a dev tool. And they don’t like that either.

“Legacy users space automation space actually wants to bring me money, and receive an automation,” he said. In fact, they want to hire a consultant to make their desired automation in the robotic process robotic made for them.

But Dunteman doesn’t want to do an off projects. He wants to build grooming tools. So he left the pig and began working on a AI caching tool. Dunteman refused further comment about his decision Ditch Windows Automation, even if the Website in Pig.Dev and Documents in GitHub remain available.

However Dunteman told us his new tool inspired by the problem of computer use. It is expelled from another angle. The idea is to allow the agent to offload the repeated tasks of Muscle Mear Service, so the agent can focus on reason for new problems and edge cases.

“Our work is now directly inspired and applicable to computer use, in the development layer.

That doesn’t say no one works on Windows automation.

Perhaps the company is far from that is Microsoft itself. For example, in April Microsoft has been announced It adds Tech to use the Copilot Studio computer for graphical user interfaces such as Windows. That tech is released as a research preview. In addition, this month, announced Microsoft An Windows 11 Agentic Tool It helps to end users to handle settings.
