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

We built a platform that handles hardware certification and testing through AI agents that make sure the process stays accurate, timely, and fully traceable. Our product takes the mess of manual compliance and testing workflows and turns it into a streamlined digital system for hardware makers facing complex industrial and regulatory requirements.

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

We live in San Francisco and plan to base the company here after YC.

Explain your decision regarding location.

SF has the engineering talent we need, plus proximity to hardware startups and industrial customers that rely on certification. Being here means faster feedback and building stronger customer relationships.
