MouseCat

MouseCat is an agentic AI infrastructure company for risk operations, founded in 2026 and a graduate of the Y Combinator Winter 2026 batch. The platform runs human-quality fraud investigations to help risk teams automatically detect, investigate, and mitigate emerging fraud, scale investigations, build better models, and make faster decisions. MouseCat deploys entirely within customer-owned cloud environments, integrating with the data, vendors, and APIs a risk team already relies on so companies retain complete control of sensitive data. The company was founded by Nicholas Aldridge (CEO) and Joseph McAllister (CTO) and is backed by Y Combinator, Imagination Capital, and SurgePoint Capital. As of this profile MouseCat is an early-stage startup with a public marketing site and a private application; it publishes no public API, SDK, developer documentation, or MCP server yet.

MouseCat is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Fraud Detection, Fraud Investigation, Risk Operations, and Artificial Intelligence.
