Thomas

Thomas is a Y Combinator-backed startup (Spring 2026 batch) based in San Francisco, building what it describes as the world's first AI founder: an autonomous AI agent that starts, runs, and grows its own companies on the internet end to end. Founded by Thomas Cloarec (the company was formerly named HireThomas, Inc. / MadeByThomas), it operates a public marketing site at madebythomas.ai. As of this profile the company publishes no public developer API, OpenAPI definition, SDKs, CLI, or developer documentation; the site is a single-page marketing application and its internal /api/ and /events/ routes are explicitly disallowed to crawlers via robots.txt.

Thomas is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Artificial Intelligence, AI Agents, Autonomous Agents, and B2B.
