Plaid for supply chain logistics

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

We built a universal API that lets companies connect to hundreds of warehouse management systems quickly. Instead of spending months integrating each system, customers get a single, well-documented interface that simplifies shipping, tracking, and inventory data access.

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

We're based in New York, NY and plan to continue operating from there after YC.

Explain your decision regarding location.

New York is a major logistics hub with access to our early customers and industry partners. It's also where the founders live and work, which helps us stay close to the supply chain problems we're solving.
