The IDE for the parallel age

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

We are building an IDE that lets engineering teams orchestrate multiple coding agents from a single dashboard. It manages parallel work streams so teams can ship entire sprints simultaneously, not sequentially. Our product focuses on speeding up the software development process by enabling parallel coding tasks coordinating through AI assistants.

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

We live and work in San Francisco, CA, and the company will remain based here after YC.

Explain your decision regarding location.

San Francisco is the center for engineering talent, potential customers, and investors. Being here keeps us close to the ecosystem we serve and want to grow within.
