AI native GTM platform for the physical economy

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

We're building an AI-first go-to-market platform tailored to teams selling to businesses in the physical economy, like contractors and restaurants. It helps sales teams identify, reach, and convert these customers more efficiently by combining data and AI insights specific to offline industries.

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

We live in San Francisco, CA, and will base the company here after YC.

Explain your decision regarding location.

San Francisco has the talent and investor ecosystem we need, and it's where we built early versions of the product. It also keeps us close to many potential customers and partners in tech and physical economy sectors.
