Probe is building the agent-native research stack.
Our goal is simple: help AI/ML teams run better experiments, faster. We believe research will drive progress and everyone deserves to have their own personalized lab that iterates faster than ever before.
Probe brings core research tools, shared context from past experiments, and visibility into each run together in one platform. Helping teams spend less time setting up infrastructure, supervising agents, catching teammates up and more time testing ideas.
Built for helping research labs experiment faster while keeping every researcher and agent aligned, and helping AI/ML teams setup a research capability without building a lab’s infrastructure first.

Is this you?
If you're behind Probe: 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.
