What SureBright does

SureBright lets e-commerce merchants embed "Apple Care” like product warranties into their checkout flows in less than 10 minutes. Our AI-powered warranty platform generates incremental revenue and boosts customer loyalty at zero cost to the merchant. Sanket led engineering at PolicyBazar, an insurance tech company that IPOed and is valued at over $8B. Manish worked at Amazon and has built $100M ARR products, handling over 180B requests per day. Until now, finding the right policy for any product and pricing it at the right price wasn’t possible at scale. We automated this process using LLM and have unlocked a $50B+ opportunity. Each month, over 5 million consumers view SureBright warranty offers.

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

We build an AI-powered warranty platform that lets e-commerce merchants embed product warranties into their checkout flows in under 10 minutes. Our system automatically finds and prices the right warranty policy for each product at scale, unlocking incremental revenue and boosting customer loyalty without any cost to the merchant.

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

We live and work distributedly; the company remains remote and flexible, especially given our early-stage status and distributed team across locations.

Explain your decision regarding location.

We prioritize remote work to attract top talent and move fast, without being tied to one city. Our product is software-first, so location is flexible.
