{"id":89797,"title":"Energent.ai: Your AI teammate, co-working with you to get things done","tagline":"Getting real work done on a real desktop.  Visible. Controllable. Secure.","body":"Hey everyone! We're [Rachel](https://www.linkedin.com/in/rachelsonghu/) and [Kimi](https://www.linkedin.com/in/0xlingjiekong/), founders of CambioML. We are excited to introduce [**Energent.ai**](http://Energent.ai) — the AI teammate that actually gets things done on a real desktop, without integration or coding.\n\n**🚀 TL;DR**\n\n[Energent.ai](http://Energent.ai) works side-by-side with you on a secure desktop to automate data-heavy multi-step workflows, without integration or coding — from gathering public info online, to cleaning messy format data, to coding and drawing plots.\n\nhttps://youtu.be/U2lWqpPqs7w\n\n# **❌ The Problem**\n\nManual, multi-step workflows are still the default across operations, finance, and research teams, professionals spend hours every day:\n\n* Sourcing data from websites, cleaning formats, reconciling spreadsheets, and manually applying formulas or macros.\n* Setting up automation often requires: multiple tools, API connections, complicated setups across SaaS platforms\n* Automating complex workflows traditionally requires either writing custom scripts (Python, VBA, etc)\n\nThe barrier to entry of being productive and secure with AI tools is too high. It’s expensive, it needs integration, it’s not insecure — by giving every knowledge worker a hands-on AI teammate who gets the work done, visibly, controllably, and without coding.\n\n# **🛠️ Our Solution**\n\n[Energent.ai](http://Energent.ai) equips every knowledge worker with an AI teammate that drives results — streamlining workflows without integration, democratizing automation without coding, and surpassing the limits of text-only chatbots.\n\n**Real-time visibility \u0026 control**\n\n* Transparent operations with real-time status visibility.\n* Easy intervention and clear workflow controls.\n* _“Stay in the loop, stay in control.”_\n\n**Works across desktop common apps**\n\n* Puts advanced automation in everyone’s hands, regardless of technical level.\n* Increases productivity and agility team-wide.\n* _“Automation without learning a new app.”_\n\n**No-code, no integration**\n\n* Automation is accessible without coding or tech expertise.\n* User-friendly, intuitive UI empowers everyone.\n* _“Automation for everyone.”_\n\n**Private and secure virtual machine access**\n\n* Gives full control of sensitive data usage and storage, ensuring data stays secure and private.\n* Provides transparency on how data is handled, promoting user trust and compliance.\n* _“Your data protected, your privacy respected.”_\n\n# \n\n**🧑‍🏫 Meet Our Team:**\n\n* [**Rachel Hu**](https://www.linkedin.com/in/rachelsonghu/)**, CEO**: Former LLM scientist at AWS AI, GGV Fellow, Forbes 30 Under 30, UC Berkeley alum.\n* [**Kimi Kong**](https://www.linkedin.com/in/0xlingjiekong/)**, CTO**: Former Google DeepMind, Microsoft \u0026 AWS research engineer; M.S. in MechE \u0026 CS from Stanford.\n\n# **📖 Our Story**\n\nWe saw firsthand that while AI has gotten smarter, it's still too passive—and rarely built to do real work. [Energent.ai](http://Energent.ai) was born to change that.\n\nWith [Energent.ai](http://Energent.ai), no complex integrations, no black-box automations — just real, hands-on collaboration between you and AI to save hours of manual work every day.\n\n# **🎯 Our Ask:**\n\n👉 Get your AI Teammate at https://app.energent.ai/ today!\n\n👉 **Reach out directly** at [admin@energent.ai](mailto:admin@energent.ai) to schedule a call.\n\nCheers,\\\nThe Energent.ai Team ❤️\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post\u0026id=89797\u0026key=user_uploads/89898/15f66cbf-b96f-4477-9643-fd3a3c846ce5)\n\n","slug":"NML-energent-ai-your-ai-teammate-co-working-with-you-to-get-things-done","created_at":"2025-04-24T16:16:55.385Z","updated_at":"2026-05-25T05:04:03.563Z","total_vote_count":15,"url":"https://www.ycombinator.com/launches/NML-energent-ai-your-ai-teammate-co-working-with-you-to-get-things-done","share_image_url":"https://www.ycombinator.com/media/?type=post\u0026id=89797\u0026key=user_uploads/89898/15f66cbf-b96f-4477-9643-fd3a3c846ce5","company":{"id":28981,"name":"CambioML","slug":"cambioml","url":"https://energent.ai/","logo":"https://bookface-images.s3.amazonaws.com/small_logos/4c2936168c1d24afabd8456dc03d4a2255c01c1f.png","batch":"Summer 2023","industry":"B2B","tags":["Productivity","Big Data","Automation","AI Assistant"],"search_path":"https://bookface.ycombinator.com/company/28981"}}
