Move money programmatically
We build a platform that lets fintechs, banks, and businesses move money by connecting stablecoins to local payment rails in emerging markets. This solves the fragmentation and inefficiency of cross-border payments where traditional rails are slow or expensive. Basically, we automate the flow of funds between crypto and local currencies so our customers can operate globally without friction.
We live distributed and don't have a fixed headquarters. We plan to stay distributed after YC, working wherever makes sense.
No physical base is required because we're building a software platform servicing emerging markets globally. Being distributed lets us access talent and markets more effectively.
