Almanac: an AI agent with its own computer and a self-updating company wiki

Launch HN: Almanac (YC S26) – AI that knows your company

Almanac (YC S26) is an always-on AI agent that gets its own computer, browser, and a self-updating company wiki. It signs into your Slack, Gmail, GitHub, and other tools, compiles scattered info into a wiki, and acts on your requests via iMessage or Slack. Demos show it filing GitHub issues from support chats, pulling pricing promises from emails, and fetching receipts from Uber and DoorDash. The post doesn't disclose the underlying model, latency, or pricing details. The FAQ notes it pings you before logins, payments, or decisions it shouldn't make alone.

Why it matters: YC S26 launch with a memorable product shape (persistent agent + self-maintaining wiki), but the body is landing-page copy with no independent review or user data. Scores at the featured threshold as a tool worth watching.
