Naman Bansal is Co-Founder and CEO of Manicule (YC P26), an AI-native developer relations studio helping developer tool companies own their technical documentation and content end-to-end.

Naman began writing content at age 13 and went on to freelance for leading developer tool companies including Promptlayer, Brightdata, and Courier.com, building deep expertise in what makes technical documentation effective. He is currently pursuing a Bachelor's degree in Data Science and Economics at the National University of Singapore.

Naman was rejected by Y Combinator at 15, but persisted and earned acceptance at 18, relocating from Agra, India to San Francisco to build Manicule. His early and sustained immersion in developer content gave him a rare understanding of the tight feedback loops required to produce high-quality documentation at scale.

At Manicule, Naman leads a team delivering AI-assisted technical documentation, blogs, cookbooks, videos, and GEO optimization for early-stage devtools at half the cost and twice the speed of a traditional DevRel hire. The company has served customers including Supermemory, Greptile, Reducto, Mastra, Skyvern, and Rootly.

Manicule grew 100% month-over-month over three consecutive months, reaching $58K in monthly revenue, and has delivered roughly 37% fewer support tickets, millions of impressions on AI search and socials, and over $100K in enterprise deals closed for clients.
