Feel close, even when apart.

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

We built a relationship wellness app that sends daily curated questions to spark meaningful conversations between friends, family, or partners who are apart. It helps people connect more deeply and maintain their relationships despite distance.

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

We live in Rochester, NY, and the company is currently based here and remote; after YC we plan to remain remote but open to relocating if it makes sense.

Explain your decision regarding location.

Rochester gives us a balanced cost of living and access to tech talent. Remote work is core to our culture and lets us hire the best people regardless of location.
