Enabling discovery to be done entirely in-house

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

We're building a platform that lets companies do discovery - like research or sourcing - entirely with their own team, without relying on external vendors or contractors. Our product uses AI to streamline and manage that process so operations teams can handle discovery faster and cheaper, all in-house.

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

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

Explain your decision regarding location.

We're based in San Francisco because that's where Dan and Alex live and where we find early users with complex operational needs. It's a good place to recruit and connect with AI talent and customers.
