Launch HN: Minicor (YC P26) – Windows desktop automations at scale

minicor.com 4 months ago 50

Minicor, a YC P26 startup, launched a tool that uses Claude as an MCP to automate Windows desktop tasks at scale by generating Python-based RPA workflows that can be triggered via API. The founders built this after a customer needed medical records integration in 2 days and found that conventional desktop automation typically fails 30% of the time due to scripting complexity, orchestration challenges, and debugging difficulties. The platform reduces failures by using AI-generated code, version control, video replay logging, and integrated human-in-the-loop options, addressing a market pain point where failed automations at scale generate thousands of support tickets monthly.

The day’s main thread is the quiet engineering work behind “agentic” software: making agents produce code without outrunning the ability to verify it. Anthropic reported that its merged code changes climbed from about 2,500 per day in May to over 30,000 per day by September as it folded more autonomous “software factory” workflows into Claude Code. The argument isn’t more autonomy; it’s a better governor. That showed up in other safety-forward tooling: AWS’s Continuum security agent hit 89.0% end-to-end task completion on CyberGym-E2E, but only 37.8% of its patches fixed the specific historical bug—an important reminder that passing tests isn’t the same as fixing the right thing. Even Kubernetes came in with a lesson about control loops: average cluster CPU sat around 8% while node provisioning stayed high, because HPA, VPA, KEDA, GitOps, and node autoscalers can make contradictory bets.
