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

We built Vizy, a cross-platform collaboration tool that lets remote teams talk instantly with click-to-talk. It includes NLP-powered transcription, screen sharing, multiplayer app collaboration, voice and video channels, and file sharing, all aimed at making remote work closer to in-person.

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

We live in San Francisco now, and we plan to base the company here after YC as well.

Explain your decision regarding location.

San Francisco is where we live and where much of the tech and remote work community is. It's easiest for us to build, recruit, and connect to early users here.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this the real Vizy YC application?

No. Y Combinator keeps submitted applications private. This is a reconstruction: the real YC form questions, answered from Vizy's public data (launch notes, founder backgrounds, product description). It shows how a company like Vizy would present itself to YC, not the text they submitted.
