At-home spa, beauty & grooming services in LatAm

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

We built a marketplace connecting customers in Latin America with vetted masseuses, manicurists, and barbers who come to their homes. Our product manages bookings, provider quality, and payments to make a usually offline service convenient and trustworthy.

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

We live in Mexico City and the company is based here. We plan to keep it in Mexico City after YC.

Explain your decision regarding location.

Mexico City is where the problem is biggest and where we know the market and talent best. It's the best place to build a LatAm-focused beauty service marketplace.
