YC retweeted the launch of Ploid, a 'living index' of people built for AI agents:
- Indexes over 2 billion people worldwide, linking social, professional and personal sites into a single Superprofile
- Reasons across text, image and video to surface signals that don't fit database fields
- Works via MCP or CLI inside ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Cursor and other agent platforms, priced in cents per query
- Pitched as the missing data layer for agents, live today
