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

We built a global neobank that lets users manage money across borders from one account. Our product enables international payments at live Google exchange rates, credit facilities in new countries, and global investing options. The goal is to remove friction in moving money internationally and give customers access to finance anywhere without separate accounts or hidden costs.

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

We live in London and the company is based here.

Explain your decision regarding location.

London is a global financial hub with strong fintech talent and infrastructure. It also connects us to international markets where our users are. Staying in London after YC lets us build on local relationships and operate in a leading fintech ecosystem.
