Describe what your company does in 50 characters or less.

Turnkey co-ownership & management of properties

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

We built a platform that organizes small groups of people to co-own high-quality recreational properties. We handle everything from ownership logistics to property management, so owners can share the land, enjoy it together, and grow their investment without the hassles of solo ownership.

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

We live in Denver, CO, and Ottawa Hills, OH. If accepted, the company would be based wherever we can best focus on growing Pursuit together, likely Denver to start.

Explain your decision regarding location.

Our team is split between Denver and Ottawa Hills, but both founders are committed to working full-time on Pursuit. We chose these locations originally based on personal roots, and after YC, we'd prioritize wherever we can build momentum with users and investors.
