AI Insurance for hardware

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

We are building AI-driven insurance products designed specifically for hardware manufacturers and their customers.

We aim to simplify insurance for complex hardware setups.

We live in San Francisco, CA, and plan to base the company there after YC.
