Cursor for Email

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

We are building Slashy, an AI-powered tool that helps users move through their email inbox faster by turning email management into quick keyboard commands - basically a cursor tailored for email. It's designed to reduce the time spent sorting, replying, and managing emails, making inboxes more manageable and less frustrating.

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

Our current locations are distributed and not fixed, and after YC we plan to operate remotely with the team distributed. YC's network and resources will support that.

Explain your decision regarding location.

We want to stay distributed because it lets us move fast, hire globally, and stay close to users in different markets. YC's support means we don't need to be based in one place to grow effectively.
