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

We built a HIPAA-compliant software platform that automates the delivery of genetic testing and counseling services. Our system integrates with health systems, clinics, and commercial labs to streamline ordering, reporting, and patient engagement for genetics, a complex workflow that traditionally relies on manual coordination.

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

We are based in San Francisco, CA, and would remain here after YC.

Explain your decision regarding location.

San Francisco has the healthcare tech ecosystem we need, plus access to talent and partners. Being close to leading health systems and commercial labs is critical for our product.
