Company
Paragon
The embedded integration platform for SaaS apps.
We are building a platform that lets software companies embed integrations with hundreds of SaaS products quickly. Our product handles connecting to these apps and managing those connections inside the customer's product, making it easy to build user-friendly integrations without custom connector engineering.
We live in Los Angeles, CA, and plan to base the company here after YC as well.
Los Angeles is where we have our team and early traction. We want to build where we live and have established a strong local network.
