Using infection data to keep organizations safe

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

We build software that integrates COVID-19 test results, vaccine records, and symptom data to verify compliance in real time. Our platform helps organizations follow health guidelines and reopen safely by providing them actionable infection data and status verification for their members.

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

We are based in Cambridge, MA, and operate remotely across locations. We plan to keep the company headquartered there after YC.

Explain your decision regarding location.

Cambridge has a strong healthcare IT ecosystem and access to technical talent. Remote work gives us flexibility to scale faster and attract specialists outside the area.
