What does Terminal Use do?
Terminal Use is infrastructure for hosting and orchestrating filesystem-based background AI agents, positioned as "Vercel for background agents." Founded by ex-Palantir engineers, it supports agents built on Claude Agent SDK, Codex SDK, or custom frameworks, with filesystem sharing/forking, messaging, and scheduling. The company is part of YC's Winter 2026 batch and also applies its agent platform to AI-first process redesign for construction, logistics, manufacturing, and retail operations.
