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

We have built a system that turns natural language prompts into visual, production-ready workflows designed specifically for operations teams. These workflows include observability, logs, and execution traces and deploy easily to Slack, enabling teams to build and run automations from anywhere. Our product removes the need to code complex workflows manually and simplifies ops automation.

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

We live in San Francisco, CA, and plan to keep the company based there after YC.

Explain your decision regarding location.

We are based in San Francisco because it's where we live and where many modern ops teams and tech customers are located. Staying here keeps us close to our core users and potential partners.
