Helping travel companies sell transportation online

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

We built an API that integrates with travel companies' booking platforms to sell airport transportation services. Our API makes it easy for them to offer shuttle and ride options directly on their sites, increasing their transaction revenue by up to 20%.

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

We live in Cancún, Q.R., Mexico, and the company is based here now. After YC, we plan to continue operating from Cancún.

Explain your decision regarding location.

Cancún is a major travel hub with strong local demand for airport transport, and as founders living here, it's where we understand the market best. We can build and serve travel companies worldwide from here without relocating.
