Meticulate is an AI engine that automates business research & analysis. We build extensive LLM pipelines that automate a huge chunk of the work that millions of investors, consultants, and business decision-makers do day-to-day. We’re a seed-stage startup coming out of Y Combinator backed by leading AI investors including Link Ventures, Cervin Ventures, and Leonis Capital.

Hundreds of professionals from firms like Bank of America, EY, BCG, and Khosla Ventures are repeatedly coming to Meticulate to offload work that would otherwise take hours. We’ve started to monetize recently, have a huge backlog of user requests, and we need help to get it all done!

About Meticulate

We’re a seed-stage startup out of Y Combinator Winter 2024, backed by leading AI investors including Link Ventures, Cervin Ventures, and Leonis Capital.

Gaining traction on both self-serve and enterprise offerings. Hundreds of professionals from firms like Bank of America, EY, BCG, and Khosla Ventures are repeatedly coming to Meticulate to run market mapping and company searching workflows that would otherwise take hours. After starting to offer our enterprise product in the last 2 months, and have seen great commercial traction with multiple large ($B’s in AUM) investment firms.
