Launch YC: Scott AI - Coding Agent Plan Mode with Superpowers

"Get to your best spec faster. Align with your team faster. Let coding agents take on larger tasks."

TL;DR: Scott runs several coding agents side by side to expose their disagreements and help you get to the best spec faster. With Scott, your coding agents can take on larger tasks while respecting your requirements.

Founded by David Maulick & Devin Cintron

Devin and David have known each other for over five years.

David (CEO & Co-Founder) is an ex staff software engineer and engineering manager from Coinbase. Over the past 4 years, David has been focused on building and evangelizing eng platforms to help Coinbase product engineers move faster + scale Coinbase to the next billion users. When he left, the teams that he helped build/lead powered 95% of UI at Coinbase, 65% of Coinbase edge traffic and were used by more than 700 engineers daily.

Devin (CTO & Co-Founder) is ex founding eng & head of mobile at Comun (Redpoint, Costanoa), KP Eng fellow, and consulting at Bain. At Comun, Devin was known for often landing projects slotted for multiple weeks in a single weekend. Stanford BS in CS, focus on AI.

❌ The Problem

Coding agents are fast and generate lots of code. But they often do things we don’t want them to. To name a few:

  • Over-architecting and using the wrong abstractions
  • Using obscure libraries for the job
  • Early optimizations for future problems that will never exist

That said, it’s not really their fault! Builders need a tool that better aligns coding agents with their intent.

The Solution

A tool that highlights the most important and relevant design decisions early, makes it easy to compare tradeoffs, and helps you pick the spec that most accurately matches your intent.

👷 What they are building

Scott runs several coding agents side by side to expose their disagreements; identifying those differences early and resolving them help you get to the best design faster.

With Scott, teams grant multi-agent swarms of any model (Claude w/ Sonnet 4.1, Codex w/ GPT-5, etc.) secure, one-click access to their full codebase. Agents explore multiple design paths in parallel while Scott orchestrates a debate between them.

Scott then surfaces key divergences and lets builders choose the best options directly in the interface. Once aligned, your final design plan is shareable with your team, and fully portable to whatever tools you use to build.

🙏 Their Ask

If you answer “yes” to any of the following, they would love your help:

  • For Developers. Rethinking the way software should be done in the era of coding agents? Try Scott and let them know what you think.
  • For Teams. Does your team care deeply about incorporating coding agents into your system design review process? They have built an experience they are actively piloting with forward-thinking teams. Schedule time with them here!
