Yhat
End-to-end data science lifecycle platform
We built a platform that handles the entire data science lifecycle - from data ingestion through model deployment and monitoring - so data teams don't waste time building custom tooling. Our product helps data scientists, engineers, and product teams collaborate and ship machine learning models faster.
We live and work remotely with core presence in Brooklyn and New York City. After YC, we plan to keep the company based in our current locations to stay close to tech talent and clients.
We chose Brooklyn and NYC for access to diverse tech talent and proximity to enterprise customers. Remote work lets us extend our reach without geographic limits.
