Describe what your company does in 50 characters or less.

Play high-end PC games on your laptop by streaming

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

We built a service that lets you stream demanding PC games from the cloud to your laptop. Instead of needing an expensive gaming rig, users run games on our backend servers and we send the video stream to their device with low latency and high quality.

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

We all live in San Francisco, and after YC the company will continue to be based there.

Explain your decision regarding location.

We picked San Francisco because all three founders live here and because the gaming and tech community here gives us direct access to users and potential partners in the PC gaming space.
