What Unifold does

Launch crypto deposits in minutes. Unifold is a developer-first API + SDK that makes it easy for any app to accept on-chain deposits - across any chain and token - with less than 10 lines of code. We handle the full deposit flow so teams can ship faster and give users a smooth experience that actually works. If you’re building a consumer-facing on-chain product and want best-in-class deposits (or want to support more chains fast), we’d love to work with you.

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

We make an API and SDK that lets apps accept on-chain crypto deposits across any chain and token with less than 10 lines of code. We handle the entire deposit flow so development teams don't have to build complex blockchain integrations themselves and can launch faster with a better user experience.

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

We live in New York City, and after YC we will continue to be based here.

Explain your decision regarding location.

All three founders are already in New York City, which makes day-to-day work and coordination easier. It's our home and where we know the fintech and crypto developer community well.
