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

We built Jamiphy as a live music video platform where users can watch and create personalized streams of live music. The product makes it easy to discover live performances and capture your own music moments using simple video tools. Users can skip what they don't like and engage with what they do, creating a soundtrack that fits their tastes. It's designed specifically for musicians and music lovers who want a dedicated space for live musical content.

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

I live in San Francisco, and the company would stay based here after YC.

Explain your decision regarding location.

San Francisco is the center of tech innovation and where I'm located, so it made sense to build and grow Jamiphy here to be close to the music tech scene and potential partners.
