Why is it listed as a Non-profit?

Because Y Combinator Research is a non-profit[1].

That said, it's apparently no longer associated with Y Combinator, and goes by OpenResearch now[2].

Looks like YC Research is no longer affiliated with Y Combinator, and has been renamed to OpenResearch. I wouldn't be surprised if their legal entity name hasn't changed from the original.
