# About Hyperspell
Hyperspell is the Memory & Context Layer for AI Agents.
AI agent are clueless geniuses.
AI agents are crushing humans on any standardized test, but wouldn't last a day at a real job. What today's super-intelligent agents are missing is the real world context they are operating in. A context that humans stitch together from hundreds of data points across dozens of interactions and channels. **A context that grows with their tasks.**
Hyperspell gives AI agents this context by connecting to their user’s workspace data and building a personalized memory and context layer.
## Our Values
We believe the future is shaped by those with the boldest ideas. Our mission is to become the default context layer for all organizations that all their AI agents can connect to. We’re not doing this because it’s easy, but because it’s worth it.
We care deeply. We care about our customers and their success, about the future of AI and its contribution to society, and most of all, about each other. Building the frontier of AI, we are de facto one of the most technologically advanced companies in human history — and because of that, not despite that, want to be the most human company too. A place where we can enjoy shaping the future together.
## Our Investors
We're backed by incredible investors including Y Combinator, Afore Capital, Scribble Ventures, and Pioneer Fund. Our angel investors include technical staff from OpenAI, Anthropic, xAI, and DeepMind, as well as some of the most well-respected founders in Silicon Valley, including Siqi Chen (Runway) and Julian Weisser (On Deck)
## Our Founders
Hyperspell was founded in 2024 by Conor Brennan-Burke and Manu Ebert. Conor previously lead growth at Checkr and managed their $30m API product portfolio and is generally known as "the most helpful founder in YC".
Manu has over 15 years of experience in machine learning and AI, sold two prior companies, led high-growth engineering teams at Airbnb, and bought his first .ai domain in 2014 (he had to send a fax (!) to the domain authority in Anguilla to do so).
