Describe what your company does in 50 characters or less.

Autonomous rovers for mapping underground utilities.

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

We build autonomous rovers that survey and create centimeter-accurate 3D maps of underground utilities. Our product gives contractors the underground intelligence they need to avoid utility strikes and project delays. Construction teams use our maps to know exactly what's below before they dig, saving time, money, and avoiding hazardous mistakes.

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

We're based in San Francisco, CA, and the company will remain there after YC.

Explain your decision regarding location.

San Francisco is the right place for us to build because it's a center for both robotics and construction tech, and it's where our team is already set up.
