AI performance monitoring for factory workers

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

We build a system that places cameras on the shop floor to monitor factory workers in real time. Our computer vision AI detects who is actively working and who's not, giving supervisors visibility into previously opaque worker productivity and helping factories boost output.

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

We live in San Francisco, and the company will be based in San Francisco after YC.

Explain your decision regarding location.

San Francisco is where we live and where the manufacturing tech ecosystem is growing. It's the right place to build our product, find partners, and hire engineers.
