Prized: AI for Non-Engineers to Build Tools

Prized, backed by Y Combinator (YC S26), allows non-engineer staff to build secure internal tools using AI. The platform is designed for operations, support, and finance teams, enabling them to create custom solutions without coding.

Company data is pre-connected, with admins approving each data connector once and scoping its access. Every tool built reuses these approved connections. Examples include a "Customer lookup" for support, a "Refund review" queue for finance, a "Billing dashboard" for revenue operations, and a "Stockroom" tracker for operations.

Users can describe the tool they need, and Prized generates it. For instance, a "Renewal risk desk" was built by reading from Salesforce, Postgres, and Zendesk, displaying at-risk ARR and drafting follow-ups. The platform emphasizes security through pre-approved connectors, scoped access for each tool, and an audit trail for every action.
