How does this template help you track new YC startups instantly?

Get notified whenever a new company appears in the Y Combinator portfolio—no more daily manual checks or missing fresh opportunities. This template scans the official YC portfolio in the background, detects any new additions, and instantly sends a detailed Slack message to your team. Stay ahead and never miss out on the latest startups joining YC.

Can I skip manual monitoring for good?

Yes, everything runs on autopilot. Instead of watching the YC site or digging for info, monitoring and notifications happen hands-free, letting you focus on outreach or research while CodeWords works for you. You'll be the first to know about new launches, boosting your awareness without lifting a finger.

How are changes detected and alerts sent?

The system captures data straight from Y Combinator using web automation and advanced extraction tools. It securely compares new data with previous snapshots to spot changes—so you only get alerts about real updates. As soon as a new portfolio entry is found, a custom Slack message goes out automatically, keeping everyone informed.

What do I need to start using this template?

All you need is a Slack channel and permission to receive messages there. The setup involves just a few clicks—connect your Slack, choose how often to monitor, and decide who gets notified. From there, monitoring and alerts run in the background, saving you hours each week.
