{"id":98440,"title":"Cofia: AI automations that write themselves","tagline":"No more prompting or workflow builders.","body":"**TLDR:** Cofia learns how you work and proactively automates your repetitive tasks. No more prompting or workflow builders.\n\n\u003chttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6pgSb0ZxMhI\u003e\n\n🧑🏻‍💻👩🏻‍💻 **Founders**\n\nWe're Pao and Moses. We've spent years in high-growth tech companies -- Pao running retention at Brilliant, Moses leading monetization at Duolingo.\n\n❌ **The problem**\n\nWe kept seeing the same pattern: smart people are still doing manual tasks.\n\nEveryone talks about AI saving time, but the reality? Most AI tools require you to:\n\n* Recognize the opportunities for automation\n* Describe your exact workflow in a prompt\n* Learn new interfaces and configure new tools\n\nSo despite having \"AI assistants,\" people are still spending hours on repetitive work that could be automated… if only custom AI tools could build themselves.\n\n✅ **The solution:**\n\nTraditional AI waits for you to describe what you need. Cofia proactively builds personalized automations, trained on _your_ exact workflows, by securely processing the work you actually do.\n\nNo prompts. No remembering to turn it on. No describing what you do.\n\nHow it works:\n\n* Cofia learns about the specific repetitive tasks you do\n* When it recognizes a pattern, it builds a custom agent and then offers it to you\n* You review, launch it, and never do that task manually again\n\nSample tasks we’ll detect:\n\n* Building prospect lists\n* Outreach, follow-ups, scheduling\n* Maintaining recruiting pipelines\n* Creating data reports\n\n❓**Is this magic?**\n\nWe hope it feels that way! Under the hood, we’re listening to system events and anonymized network traffic. This gets mined for repeatable patterns of activity, which serves as the framework for the automations we spin up. No need to screen record like traditional RPA task mining, and you can see what we’re processing at any time.\n\n🚀 **Ready to try it?**\n\nSign up at: \u003chttps://www.cofia.ai/\u003e","slug":"Pbk-cofia-ai-automations-that-write-themselves","created_at":"2026-03-05T00:39:49.876Z","updated_at":"2026-05-24T21:03:17.883Z","total_vote_count":268,"url":"https://www.ycombinator.com/launches/Pbk-cofia-ai-automations-that-write-themselves","share_image_url":"//bookface-static.ycombinator.com/assets/ycdc/yc-og-image-c440a0ad1dacfb86eeeb343717479cc54d256614449b4ef719977a0a451f8bc8.png","company":{"id":31104,"name":"Cofia","slug":"cofia","url":"https://cofia.ai","logo":"https://bookface-images.s3.amazonaws.com/small_logos/dd8ddb84748f0bee7a74404c7075fd31e9681917.png","batch":"Winter 2026","industry":"B2B","tags":[],"search_path":"https://bookface.ycombinator.com/company/31104"}}
