Channel3 (YC S25) Is Hiring

3 months ago

Channel3 is building a database of every product on the internet using AI to structure messy product data.
Their vision includes becoming a central node for agentic commerce, similar to Stripe for payments or Plaid for fintech.
The problem they address is the inconsistency and inaccuracy of product data, which bottlenecks agentic commerce.
McKinsey estimates the US B2C retail market could see up to $1 trillion in orchestrated revenue from agentic commerce by 2030.
The team consists of experienced engineers, including Alex (CEO) and George (CTO), with backgrounds in AI and big data.
Channel3 has indexed over 100M products, has 1500+ developers using their API, and is scoping pilots with enterprise customers.
They are looking for engineers to help understand and deduplicate products, build world-class search, and optimize for reliability and cost.
The company raised a $6M seed round in August 2025, led by Matrix with participation from Ludlow, Y Combinator, and others.
They work in-person in their Flatiron office Monday through Friday, with flexible weekend work expectations.
Channel3 offers a fast-moving, fun work environment with direct ownership of technical decisions and a clear monetization path.
