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

We are building a drag-and-drop financial modeling software for finance teams. It lets users create, update, and share budgeting and forecasting models in real time. It connects with accounting and analysis tools to show plan versus actual comparisons without spreadsheets' chaos.

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

We live in Omaha, NE, and the company is based here and also fully remote. After YC, we plan to stay remote with our base in Omaha.

Explain your decision regarding location.

We chose Omaha because it's home, and we can build and support remotely just as well as from anywhere else. Remote allows us to hire and collaborate flexibly.
