Software to operate and optimize production lines

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

We build software that helps manufacturers run their production lines more efficiently. Our product collects data from machines and operators, analyzes it to identify bottlenecks and inefficiencies, and provides actionable insights to improve throughput and reduce downtime. It's designed for factory managers and engineers who need better visibility and control over complex manufacturing processes.

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

We live in San Francisco and have some remote team members. After YC, we'll be based in San Francisco.

Explain your decision regarding location.

San Francisco has the right engineering talent and access to potential industrial partners and investors. Being here helps us build and scale faster.
