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

We built Finta to automate bookkeeping, simplify tax filing, and deliver real-time financial insights. Our product connects to company financials to eliminate manual data entry and confusion around taxes so founders can focus on building their business instead of crunching numbers.

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

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

Explain your decision regarding location.

San Francisco is where the finance and startup communities overlap, making it easier to connect with early users and potential partners. We want to be close to where our customers and investors are.
