Was AirHelp tut

We help get compensation for air passengers that have experienced delayed, cancelled, and overbooked flights. We make the claim process much faster, easier and less painfull because the airlines won't. We love new challenges! As a start-up, we’ve been through it all and thanks to this our AirHelpers have developed the skills to deal with it all, and more, all while remaining passionate about what we do - helping ordinary people - as flight delays can happen to anyone. What helps us continuously develop, is our combination of talent, passion and persistance. What makes us different? Every single one of our employees can make an impact on the future of AirHelp - come up with an innovative idea - and we’ll help you implement it at AirHelp. This is an experience you can gain in very few places! If you’re looking to develop new skills, make an impact on not only global business, but ordinary, everyday travellers, and take risks developing and implementing new projects - what are you waiting for? Come join us today! With a variety of departments to choose from: tech, product, legal, finance, human resources, customer service (and the list goes on!) - you don’t have to narrow your horizons, just take your pick. Pick what you’ve got a knack for, and most importantly, what you enjoy! AirHelp. We're here to help!

We help passengers get flight delay compensation

What is your company going to make? Please describe your product and what it does or will do.

We built a platform that helps air passengers claim compensation for delayed, cancelled, and overbooked flights. We handle the complex, slow, and frustrating claims process on behalf of travelers to get them paid faster and with less hassle than if they tried alone.

Where do you live now, and where would the company be based after YC?

We all live and operate remotely now, and the company is fully remote post-YC.

Explain your decision regarding location.

Flight disruptions happen worldwide, and our users are everywhere. Staying remote lets us tap into talent globally and serve customers wherever they fly.
