Describe what your company does in 50 characters or less.

A platform connecting fitness brands with retailers

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

We are building a B2B marketplace where fitness product makers can connect directly with retail stores. Our platform simplifies discovery, ordering, and relationship management between manufacturers and retailers in the fitness industry.

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

We do not have a fixed location currently. After YC, we plan to be based wherever it makes sense to grow the business and meet partners and customers, likely near health and fitness hubs.

Explain your decision regarding location.

We have stayed location-agnostic to focus fully on building the product and engaging early users in the fitness and retail spaces. After YC, proximity to partners and investors will guide our decision.
