Lyon (YC S26) — Foundation models on enterprise transaction data
Lyon builds private foundation models for banks, insurance companies, and fintechs. Each model learns from the company’s proprietary transactions, payments, clicks, and customer interactions to predict credit, fraud, collections, income, churn, and lifetime value; and runs inside the company’s cloud, so its data and intelligence remain under its control.

Lyon builds private foundation models for banks, insurance companies, and fintechs. Each model learns from the company’s proprietary transactions, payments, clicks, and customer interactions to predict credit, fraud, collections, income, churn, and lifetime value; and runs inside the company’s cloud, so its data and intelligence remain under its control. Lyon is already working with a major insurer and trained a model on 28B transactions for a fintech serving tens of millions of active users, identifying premium-card converters 4x more precisely than its existing rules; the model is now being deployed for credit.

Read from the page's own HTML and response headers on 10 September 2026, at https://lyon.so/. Each badge matched a string the site serves about itself — hover one to see which. Nothing here is a traffic, ranking or revenue figure: those cannot be read off a page and are not claimed.
Checked away from the directory entry. What is below does not come from the company's Y Combinator page.
Lyon trains a foundation model from scratch on your customer event data. The model runs in your cloud, and you own the intelligence.

Is this you?
If you're behind Lyon: acceptance into a YC batch is one of the few weeks a young company gets looked up by people who matter — investors, other founders, press. FoxPlug turns the commits, deploys, and releases you're already making into that story automatically, so anyone who looks finds something current. GetFoxChat puts a guide on your own site so the people YC's own page just sent you don't read one line and leave.
