AI plug-in automates HR immigration screening

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

We built an AI-powered HR plug-in that automates immigration screening and compliance checks for global candidates. It parses and classifies immigration documents, determines visa pathways, and generates forms attorney-ready for review. The product integrates with existing HR systems to show only compliant candidates and reduce legal risk in international hiring.

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

We live in San Francisco, CA, and the company will remain based here after YC.

Explain your decision regarding location.

We chose San Francisco since it's where we live and the hub for HR and legal tech startups where our early users and partners are located.
