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

We build document AI infrastructure that automates manual financial document processing. Our product transforms tasks like KYB and mortgage underwriting - usually taking weeks - into operations done in minutes. We provide the backend that financial services teams use to speed up compliance and underwriting workflows with automation tailored to their legal and financial documents.

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

We live in Bogotá, Colombia. After YC, the company will continue to be based here.

Explain your decision regarding location.

Bogotá is where we built the product from day one and where our team is based. We have deep local knowledge of the financial and legal context here, which informs our AI models and workflow designs. We plan to keep operating here while leveraging YC's network and resources globally.
