2X YC Founder || CEO/Cofounder of Vybe (X25) || ex-CEO/Cofounder of Plato (W16, acquired by Coda) At Plato, we were building a mentorship platform for engineering leaders. - We grew to 5M of ARR selling to CTOs/VPs of Engineering - We worked with notable customers like Airbnb, Stripe, Coinbase, Slack, Twilio, etc. - We grew a community of 30k+ engineering leaders - We raised $23M in total with Slack, Fundersclub, S28 Capital, SaaSTR Fund, etc. and got to a team of 70 people
We're 2 repeat YC founders. We founded Plato (W16, sold to Coda) and Wolfia (S22). Quang lead Product/GTM for Coda Solutions and Fabien is ex-SWE at Meta and lead Engineering at Wealthfront before.
We’re building Vybe: "Lovable for internal apps". We come with pre-built building blocks: Integrations (Gmail, Gcal, Github, Jira, etc.), SSO and AI tools (Websearch, Summarization etc.) so anyone in a company can build and launch internal AI-powered apps.
Vibe coding is dramatically lowering the barrier for non-technical users to create full web apps. Lovable, Replit, Bolt, Google, Canva, Figma all launched their vibe-coding platforms. People love them. They're great for prototyping, but it's difficult to roll out inside a company for internal use cases for those reasons:
1. Data: If you want to connect your existing data (e.g. Salesforce, Gmail, Jira), you'd need to rebuild the API auth, pagination, etc.
2. SSO: If you build 20 apps, you'll have 20 different logins
3. Security: AI-built apps have massive risk of exposing data, especially if built by non developers
So companies are stuck in the old world: clunky spreadsheets, rigid SaaS solutions or complex no-code tools.
Time to build!
