Neobank for global remote workers

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

We built Wallbit to provide global remote workers with US bank accounts, debit cards, and investment accounts for bonds and stocks on the US market. It solves the problem of remote workers lacking access to US financial products regardless of where they live.

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

We live and operate in Buenos Aires, Argentina, and plan to base the company here after YC as well.

Explain your decision regarding location.

Buenos Aires is where our core team is located and where we can hire strong technical talent with lower costs. Our users are globally remote, so our location doesn't limit our product reach.
