Security Delivery Platform with AI agent orchestration

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

We built a platform that automates security engineering workflows by orchestrating AI agents to handle triage, investigation, response, and documentation. It's designed for service providers and security teams who want to scale incident response with supervised or autonomous agents.

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

Our team is based in McKinney, TX and remotely distributed. Post-YC, we plan to keep this distributed approach but remain anchored in McKinney as our operational base.

Explain your decision regarding location.

McKinney is where we live and have established the team; the remote model lets us tap talent broadly while staying lean and flexible.
