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

We build a platform that lets companies set up legal entities in multiple countries to compliantly hire and pay international teams. Our product handles the legal and payroll complexities for businesses expanding their workforce globally.

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

We're based between New York, NY, and remote locations. After YC, the company will remain based in New York with flexibility for remote work.

Explain your decision regarding location.

We chose to base the company in New York because it's a major global business hub and our team is already located there and remote. This gives us access to clients and resources we need.
