Each dot is one YC-backed company, coloured by batch year, placed by how crowded its market is (x) and how the prices of its commercial substitutes moved over 30 days (y, Neighbourhood Price Index — the company’s own price is excluded). Solid dots sit at their true value — unlike /edges, the ±5% band is shown here in an expanded centre (⫽-marked), because at cohort scale the small moves are the signal. Hollow dots on the 0% line: neighbourhood not yet measurable. Grey cloud: the whole agentic market.
116 of 116 YC listings placeable · 53 with measured neighbourhoods, 8 of which repriced in 30d · coverage grows nightly.
YC companies mostly compete with the open market, not each other.

96% of the competitor slots around YC listings are non-YC (1,081 distinct outside products). Most recurring: item_app · big_brain_way · AI Receptionist / Voice AI · puretalk · AI Agent for Finance Workflow Automation

Cohort JSON: GET /api/yc. Pricing, benchmarks and neighbourhood trends live on each listing’s market page and the Agentery MCP — YC here is provenance over normal listings, not a separate dataset.

Methodology
Cohort verified against the Y Combinator company directory (29 Aug 2026); batches 2016–2026; companies flow through the normal Agentery intake. “Observed” prices are scraped from vendors’ public pricing pages. “Comparable market” ranges describe what a listing’s accepted commercial substitutes charge (P25–P75 of entry-plan monthly, dominant billing cohort, minimum 3 priced peers, abstain on wide spreads) — never the vendor’s own price, never an input to any Agentery index. Density = distinct competing vendors at the calibrated similarity threshold, as a percentile of the whole directory. Neighbourhood Price Index = chained like-for-like index over a listing’s substitutes, listing itself excluded; moves inside ±5% treated as currency noise. Not investment advice.
