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

We're building the first fully automated SaaS management tool. Our product replaces manual spreadsheets and Slack surveys used for compliance audits, user provisioning, and license tracking. It gives admins clear visibility into their SaaS usage in 2 minutes without forcing employees to change how they work.

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

We live and work remotely, based in Copenhagen, Denmark. After YC, we plan to remain remote but rooted in Copenhagen.

Explain your decision regarding location.

We're based where we are because it's home and where our network is strongest. We operate remotely to stay lean and flexible, which suits the kind of small, focused team we are.
