Describe what your company does in 50 characters or less.

India's Largest EV charging network

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

We built a platform connecting electric vehicle owners to charging stations. Users discover chargers nearby, book slots, pay through the app. Property owners buy and share chargers, manage them, and earn by hosting. Our network spans malls, workplaces, restaurants, hotels, and residences.

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

We live and work between Gurugram and Bengaluru, India, where our teams and customers are. Post-YC, we'll remain headquartered there to stay close to our market and operations.

Explain your decision regarding location.

India is seeing rapid EV adoption but lacks easy charging access. Being on the ground in Gurugram and Bengaluru puts us directly in fast-growing EV hubs, allowing us to understand and solve real customer problems.
