Unifying how the optical industry does business
We built SpecCheck to unify prescription eyewear ordering, billing, and communication between patients, eye doctors, and labs. Our platform reduces errors, saves time, and simplifies the workflow for everyone in the optical supply chain.
We live in Los Angeles and work remotely across multiple locations. After YC, we plan to remain based in Los Angeles but keep a distributed team.
Los Angeles is where we started, and it puts us close to many optical industry partners. Remote work lets us tap broader talent while staying connected to our core customers here.
