Modern financial infrastructure for trucking

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

We built payables automation software that logistics businesses use to make hundreds of payments to trucking companies every day. On the trucking side, we offer a banking platform tailored to their unique financial needs. Essentially, logistics operators automate payments while truckers get banking designed for their industry.

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

We live in Austin, TX, and the company is based here now and will continue to be based here after YC.

Explain your decision regarding location.

Austin is where we all live and work. The city has a strong tech scene and access to logistics customers and trucking companies. We don't see a reason to move post-YC.
