Updated Jul 30, 2026
Preloop was a Y Combinator Winter 2024 startup that built an ML feature store / ML deployment platform for data science teams, turning experimental scripts into production services with training pipelines, inference endpoints, autoscaling, observability, and versioning. Public sources later describe the company as closed or deadpooled, so the available evidence appears to refer to the older preloop.com company rather than the separate 2026 preloop.ai project.
