Executable specifications in English for test automation

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

We build an engine that turns manual QA test cases written in plain English into automated tests. This reduces the time QA engineers spend coding tests and maintaining test scripts by orders of magnitude.

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

We live in San Francisco and have a mostly remote team. After YC, the company will remain based in San Francisco but continue supporting remote work.

Explain your decision regarding location.

San Francisco is our base because of the talent pool and access to customers, but our product and culture support distributed work and remote collaboration.
