{"id":90211,"title":"Auctor: AI agents that streamline enterprise software implementations.","tagline":"The fastest way to go from discovery to delivery—without the mess.","body":"Hey YC! 👋\n\nWe're Xinan, Will, Matt, and Sky—co-founders of Auctor. We’re building an AI-native platform that streamlines enterprise software implementations.\n\n**TL;DR:**\\\nEnterprise software implementations (Oracle, SAP, Salesforce, etc.) are messy and expensive, plagued by shifting requirements, misaligned teams, and obsolete documentation. Auctor's AI agents solve this by automatically capturing requirements, generating artifacts (like SoWs, proposals, architecture docs, user stories, and more), and seamlessly syncing everything across your tools, eliminating costly delays and change orders.\n\n🎬 **Launch Video:** https://youtu.be/A-T2gwZCOMM\n\n## **🚨 The Problem**\n\nEvery implementation team—whether at software vendors or tech consultancies—knows this pain:\n\n* Fuzzy, incomplete requirements at kickoff\n* Tribal knowledge buried in notes and scattered docs\n* Endless manual edits across SOWs, user stories, test plans, and more\n* Costly rework, misalignment, and change orders\n\nDespite billions invested annually, over 70% of enterprise implementations still experience significant delays, overruns, and failures.\n\n## **🚀 Our Solution**\n\nAfter over 300 customer calls, we've spent the last several months building what we think every implementation team needs:\\\n🧠 AI agents that join your discovery/refinement calls,\n\n✍️ capture every requirement,\n\n📄 generate artifacts—from SOWs \u0026 design docs to user stories \u0026 configs,\n\n🔁 and keep it all in sync every time something changes.\n\n**It’s like having a sales engineer, solutions architect, and a delivery lead...all working 24/7, automatically.**\n\n# 👫  **The Team**\n\nWe are four best friends who gave up our jobs at Meta, Google, AWS, and Apple, and dropped out of Johns Hopkins to tackle the broken implementation process head-on. \n\nWe're building a new intelligence layer that leading mid-market and enterprise customers are leveraging today to reshape how implementations get done, faster than ever.\n\nOh—and meet our fifth cofounder (Chief Bark Officer 🐶) in the photo!\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post\u0026id=90211\u0026key=user_uploads/1780083/82da5007-0632-4ce8-9bad-43b68de9ee9b)\n\n## **🙏 Our Ask**\n\n* Know any professional services, customer success, or tech consulting leaders struggling with complex implementations? We'd love an intro 👉 [will@getauctor.com](mailto:xinan@getauctor.com)\n* Curious how Auctor can transform your own implementations?[ Book a live demo here!](https://www.getauctor.com)\n\nThank you—more to come!","slug":"NT1-auctor-ai-agents-that-streamline-enterprise-software-implementations","created_at":"2025-05-08T15:15:31.679Z","updated_at":"2026-05-25T03:04:15.108Z","total_vote_count":27,"url":"https://www.ycombinator.com/launches/NT1-auctor-ai-agents-that-streamline-enterprise-software-implementations","share_image_url":"https://www.ycombinator.com/media/?type=post\u0026id=90211\u0026key=user_uploads/1780083/82da5007-0632-4ce8-9bad-43b68de9ee9b","company":{"id":30425,"name":"Auctor","slug":"auctor","url":"https://getauctor.com","logo":"https://bookface-images.s3.amazonaws.com/small_logos/e14ac50e2fa0724e7b0c94e9bc2c4cdac5732e9e.png","batch":"Spring 2025","industry":"B2B","tags":["Generative AI","SaaS","Productivity"],"search_path":"https://bookface.ycombinator.com/company/30425"}}
