Making electric vehicle batteries affordable

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

We are building a battery swapping network for commercial electric vehicles in India, like gas stations for EV batteries. Our product lets EV owners swap batteries quickly to reduce upfront costs and increase earnings from their vehicles.

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

We currently live and operate from Delhi, India, and we plan to keep the company based here after YC.

Explain your decision regarding location.

Delhi is at the center of the commercial electric vehicle market we serve. Being local is critical to build the battery swap infrastructure and work closely with vehicle owners and businesses on the ground.
