Context Gateway
Instant history compaction and context optimization for AI agents
Our Take
Context Gateway is what happens when you realize that AI agents like Claude Code and Cursor hit context limits and just... stop. You wait. You stare at the screen. You lose your flow. It's 2025 and we're still waiting for robots to compress their own memory. That's absurd.
Eight people—Emad Ibrahim, Jonathan Scanzi, Kamel Charaf, Berke Argin, Oussama Gabouj, Ivan Zakazov, Jack Andrews, and Joao Seabra—built Context Gateway to fix exactly that. It's an agentic proxy that sits between your AI agent and the LLM API and compresses conversation history in the background while you work. No waiting. No context limits breaking your stride. It just works. They're Y Combinator backed, which means someone at YC looked at this and said "yeah, this is a real problem that matters."
The pitch is simple: make Claude Code faster and cheaper without losing context. For developers running long agentic workflows, that’s not a nice-to-have—it’s the difference between using AI for serious work or just for fun. Context Gateway handles the compaction so your agent keeps going, keep optimizing, keeps delivering. If you're building with Claude Code, Cursor, or any agent that burns through context tokens, this is the infrastructure layer you didn't know you needed. They're likely hiring for engineering talent and looking for early adopters who want to stress-test the system.
