Y Combinator companies API

August 3, 2026 · View on GitHub

This repository contains an unofficial API for Y Combinator companies fetched from the Y Combinator website's Algolia search index. It only includes publicly launched companies with pages on the Y Combinator website. It does not scrape the Y Combinator website, instead it uses the Algolia search index to fetch the companies in a GitHub Actions workflow that runs every day. When company records change, the workflow also publishes a daily change summary in JSON and Markdown at changes/latest.json and changes/latest.md, so you can review what YC changed without digging through the full repository diff.

YC also exposes signed S3 URLs for some application and demo day videos, but those URLs expire quickly. This API stores the durable app_video_public and demo_day_video_public booleans, and provides matching filtered endpoints, instead of publishing stale signed media URLs.

For example, the airbnb.json endpoint returns the following object:

  "all_locations": "San Francisco, CA, USA",
  "long_description": "Founded in August of 2008 and based in San Francisco, California, Airbnb is a trusted community marketplace for people to list, discover, and book unique accommodations around the world — online or from a mobile phone. Whether an apartment for a night, a castle for a week, or a villa for a month, Airbnb connects people to unique travel experiences, at any price point, in more than 33,000 cities and 192 countries. And with world-class customer service and a growing community of users, Airbnb is the easiest way for people to monetize their extra space and showcase it to an audience of millions.  \r\n\r\nNo global movement springs from individuals. It takes an entire team united behind something big. Together, we work hard, we laugh a lot, we brainstorm nonstop, we use hundreds of Post-Its a week, and we give the best high-fives in town. Headquartered in San Francisco, we have satellite offices in Dublin, London, Barcelona, Paris, Milan, Copenhagen, Berlin, Moscow, São Paolo, Sydney, and Singapore.",
