Bubble Lab — Workflow Automation Platform

Bubble Lab (YC W'26) is an AI-native workflow automation platform that deploys Pearl, your AI-powered ops super-employee, directly into Slack workspaces. Founded in 2025 as part of Y Combinator's Winter 2026 batch, Bubble Lab enables operations teams to eliminate manual work, reduce context switching, and scale operations without scaling headcount. Pearl connects to tools like Notion, Jira, HubSpot, Stripe, and Google Workspace, taking actions on behalf of users including updating systems, running reports, and executing operational workflows automatically. The platform features a visual workflow builder for creating custom automation flows from scratch, with deployment to Slack possible in less than a minute with no engineering setup required. Teams use Bubble Lab for drafting and sending emails and Slack messages, creating Jira tickets and updating Notion docs, running recurring workflows like standup summaries and report generation, and answering questions from internal docs and databases. Built with enterprise security in mind, Bubble Lab is SOC 2 Type 1 certified and Tier 2 CASA verified, with all connections encrypted end-to-end and a commitment to never training on customer data. The platform is also open-source, providing production-ready TypeScript workflows that can be owned, debugged, and deployed anywhere.
