13 companies from YC Demo Day 1 that are worth paying attention to
- The first day of Y Combinator’s Demo Day saw AI companies dominate the showcase somewhat surprisingly.

- Baseline AI deals with AI automation of clinical trial documents and can save companies $18m in costs and lost revenue.
- Elayne deals with AI-powered estate planning and settlements. What sets it apart is that it looks to reach consumers through their employers.

- Passage provides AI-assisted customs support, which is important for companies that move goods across borders.
- Promi offers AI price optimisation that can help companies offer data-informed fluctuating discounts to customers that change based on interest and activity.
