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

We are building the backend infrastructure to train and pay family caregivers in the US. Our product helps formalize the care work millions of people do for aging parents or relatives, enabling them to get compensated for it. This includes managing training, certification, and payments.

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

We live in New York City, and the company will be based here after YC as well.

Explain your decision regarding location.

We chose NYC because that's where we live and where we have network and access to the healthcare ecosystem relevant to family caregivers. Staying local lets us move faster on building partnerships and talking to real users.
