Confluence Labs is a San Francisco AI research company (Y Combinator Winter 2026, backed by Paul Graham) focused on learning efficiency — building machine learning systems that learn from limited data and few experiments. Founded by Brent Burdick and Niranjan Baskaran, the lab works on hypothesis generation (using AI to design maximally informative experiments) and data-efficient modeling (combining large language models with discrete program search) to accelerate breakthroughs in data-sparse domains such as drug design, materials engineering, hardware, and physics discovery. The team reported state-of-the-art performance on the ARC-AGI-2 reasoning benchmark using LLM-driven program synthesis and open-sourced their solver on GitHub. Confluence Labs currently publishes no public API, developer portal, SDK, or OpenAPI surface; this profile captures verified company identity for the API Evangelist network.
