YC正在押注于机器人技术和物理人工智能初创公司。
查看了2026年冬季和夏季批次的208家初创公司，了解它们今年实际资助的项目。
机器人技术是最大的惊喜。有32家机器人/物理人工智能公司，数量与人工智能基础设施公司完全相同。它们中的许多专注于相当具体的问题：自主工厂、数控加工、仓库作业、废物管理、太阳能建设、核检查等。
一些其他突出的数字包括：
208家公司中有145家被标记为人工智能相关。
24家正在开发开发者/代理工具。这些工具不再仅仅是帮助你编写代码，而是用于管理、监控和调试编码代理。
23家是金融科技公司，19家是医疗健康/生物科技公司。
只有5家是消费品公司。尽管YC明确要求在这两个领域的初创公司，但只有3家涉及加密货币/Web3。
团队规模也很小。中位数公司仅有2人，208家公司中有146家人数为3人或更少。
此外，YC仍然非常集中在旧金山：208家公司中有148家总部位于那里。

Went through 208 startups from YC's Winter and Summer 2026 batches to see what they're actually funding this year.<p>Robotics was the biggest surprise. There are 32 robotics/physical AI companies, exactly as many as AI infrastructure companies. A lot of them are working on pretty specific problems: autonomous factories, CNC machining, warehouse work, waste management, solar construction, nuclear inspection, etc.<p>Some other numbers that stood out:<p>145 of the 208 companies are tagged AI.<p>24 are building developer/agent tools. A lot of these aren't really about helping you write code anymore. They're about managing, monitoring, and debugging coding agents.<p>23 are fintech, 19 healthcare/bio.<p>Only 5 are consumer companies. Only 3 are crypto/Web3, despite YC explicitly asking for startups in both areas.<p>The teams are tiny too. The median company has just 2 people, and 146 of the 208 have 3 people or fewer.<p>And YC is still very SF: 148 of the 208 companies are based there.
