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

We built an orchestration and aggregation layer for local KYC and AML checks. Our API lets businesses plug in video/biometrics, banking data, and government digital IDs to verify clients' identities online. Verification scenarios are flexible and risk-based, so companies can tailor checks to different client profiles or processes.

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

We live and work remotely, and our company remains fully remote after YC.

Explain your decision regarding location.

Operating remotely lets us hire talent wherever we find it and stay flexible, which is crucial for a technical product serving a global market.
