Streamline EV charger installations for developers

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

We automate the entire process of purchasing, installing, and applying for government incentives for EV chargers in commercial real estate. Our product targets real estate developers who currently face a complex, fragmented workflow involving multiple vendors, paperwork, and compliance hurdles.

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

We live in Los Angeles and plan to base Overflux here after YC as well.

Explain your decision regarding location.

Being in Los Angeles keeps us close to key real estate markets and regulatory agencies for EV infrastructure, which are central to our business.
