Launch HN: Undermind (YC S24) – AI agent for discovering scientific papers

🧀

Undermind, a YC S24 company, launches an AI-powered agent aimed at transforming the way scientific papers are discovered. Co-founded by physicists Josh and Tom, Undermind.ai is designed to mimic human research strategies and improve search results in complex scientific research. The search system engages users in a dialogue to better understand their complex research goals, then conducts a systematic search, yielding a detailed report after approximately three minutes. The goal is to provide accurate, exhaustive results for specific topics by reading abstracts and citations, with plans to include full texts in the future.

  • Undermind is part of Y Combinator's S24 batch.
  • The service targets complex scientific research.
  • Search results are delivered in about 3 minutes.
  • Currently reads only abstracts and citations.
  • Uses adaptive algorithms to enhance searches.
