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

We build financing products for online revenue-generating companies like creators and eCommerce stores. Our main product packages receivables into investable factoring products, so creators can raise capital against future payments from their business.

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

We live in Los Angeles and Seoul, and the company would be based in either location after YC.

Explain your decision regarding location.

We split time between LA and Seoul to leverage our connections and business opportunities in both locations. This also helps us access capital and market insights across US and Asia.
