Make diesel semi trucks hybrid-electric

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

We make SixWheel, a system that converts diesel semi trucks into hybrid-electric trucks in three minutes with zero upfront cost. It cuts fuel use and emissions while increasing profit by about $25,000 per truck annually. Fleet operators keep their trucks but run them cheaper and cleaner.

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

We live and work in San Mateo, CA, and after YC the company will remain based here.

Explain your decision regarding location.

San Mateo is where the founding team lives and where our industrial and software expertise comes together. Keeping the company here lets us stay close to our customers and partners in logistics and vehicle fleets.
