AI-powered situational awareness for tactical teams

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

We're building an AI command and control platform for law enforcement and military users. Our product transcribes radio communications in real time, analyzes the audio data, and synthesizes the key information so commanders and operators can make faster decisions on the ground.

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

We live in San Francisco, and we plan to base the company here after YC as well.

Explain your decision regarding location.

San Francisco is where our network is, and it's the best place to hire engineers and connect with early government customers and partners.
