Javascript proxy

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

We built Proxino as a cloud platform that helps developers monitor and debug client-side JavaScript in real time. It acts as a proxy that captures and inspects JavaScript traffic running in users' browsers, making it easier to identify bugs and performance issues that are otherwise hard to track down.

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

We currently live in Palo Alto, CA, and the company is based there as well. After YC, we'll keep operating from Palo Alto.

Explain your decision regarding location.

We live and work in Palo Alto, near a vibrant tech community and close to YC itself. Being here makes it easier to connect with other startups, potential customers, and YC resources.
