Transforming how health systems optimize labor

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

We build software that helps hospitals optimize staffing and scheduling. Our product reduces labor costs and frees clinical leaders from hours of manual scheduling work each day by automating complex operations tasks that health systems struggle with.

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

We currently live and work in San Francisco, CA, and the company is based here and will continue to be headquartered here after YC.

Explain your decision regarding location.

We chose San Francisco because it's a major tech hub, giving us access to talent and investors who understand SaaS and healthcare challenges. It's also where all three founders live and work now.
