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

We built HeyClicky, an assistant that stays next to your cursor on your Mac and watches what you're doing. You can ask questions out loud, and it guides you through your work. Say "HeyClicky Agent" and it launches a background agent to build, research, or handle tasks while you keep working.

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

We live in San Francisco, CA and the company will stay based here after YC.

Explain your decision regarding location.

San Francisco is where we live and work. It's the best place for us to connect with the users and talent we need as we grow.
