Launch HN: Hyper (YC P26) – Company brain to power agentic development

Hey HN, we’re Shalin & Kanyes, best friends who've been hacking together for 10+yrs, and now founders of Hyper ( https://heyhyper.ai/ ). Hyper is a shared “company brain” that plugs into information flowing inside a company to make AI agents and automations better and ultimately save people time. Models have gotten good enough that they can (mostly) take on long-horizon, complex tasks. We believe the bottleneck now is that these smart-enough models often lack information about your company, which is scattered in people's heads, Slack threads, stale docs, and in back-and-forth convos with AI. MCP is useful for getting some info in front of an agent, but there are problems: (1) Once the session dies, so does the insight, so instead of copy-pasting a whole doc each time you're telling the agent to dig through Drive each time - not much of a win; (2) Even when MCP works, what it gathers isn't comprehensive, because people decide things on a whiteboard, brainstorm out loud, post a little in Slack, and scribble the rest in a doc, which leaves the agent working from partial information; (3) And even if it had everything, it doesn't do the meta-reasoning required to do a great job. If you paste in a Notion doc and it won't learn your design taste or your writing style unless you tell it to, and it won't know why a decision was made or when. As undergrads 5 years ago, we were into the tools-for-thought wave and became power users of Notion, Obsidian, Roam, Anki, real believers in building a second brain. After GPT-3.5 came out we started to realize how much more powerful that second brain could be if an AI could actually read it, because suddenly it would know our backstory, our taste, our preferences, and unlock genuinely new capabilities. That’s why we’re building Hyper. We know it’s not for everybody! But for people who do want to be on the cutting edge, this is a force multiplier that makes agents faster and better. It increases the number of tasks they can do, and how e
