March 2025 Update

This post is part of our monthly supporter updates and reflects product development and thinking at the time it was written. Here is our latest update.

Hi all,

Here's what's new this month from Artificial Societies:

We completed YC W25 Demo Day

We told our story to thousands of investors. All of whom, of course, we had simulated. We crushed alumni demo day and carried that momentum into the main event. We are now receiving significant investor interest, and it will be an exciting few weeks ahead.

Reach went public, and the numbers are wild

We released Reach to our full waitlist and launched on Product Hunt and YC's social channels. In the first week alone, users simulated 1,600+ bespoke artificial societies — that's 200,000+ unique AI personas created.

We also shipped Reach Variants: when you simulate a post, Reach now creates 100 variants and tests them in 100 "parallel universes" of your audience, surfacing the top performers. This is what we call outcome reasoning: technology that sees all potential outcomes of how a society would respond.

10 weeks of YC, in perspective

It's worth stepping back. Ten weeks ago, our prototype used TypeForm for inputs, took 15 minutes to run, and sometimes didn't even render correctly. Today we have a polished platform delivering interactive simulations in 30 seconds. Over 6,000 people have now used Artificial Societies to run simulations. We've gone from Wave (988 VC investors) to batch mate simulations for Anthropic to Reach (anyone's LinkedIn audience). And we're just getting started.

We delivered our first paid B2B pilot with 1,262 personas, went multimodal with image and PDF uploads, and made our persona database searchable by natural language.
