AI to understand and automates the physical world

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

We build AI systems that analyze real-world environments through cameras and sensors to automate tasks and extract actionable insights. For businesses, this means monitoring physical spaces without human oversight and responding in real time to changes, reducing manual checks and errors.

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

We live in San Francisco, CA, and the company is based there.

Explain your decision regarding location.

San Francisco is a hub for AI and enterprise software talent, and it lets us stay close to our key customers and partners in B2B AI. The current team is here so it makes sense to keep the company where we already have support and infrastructure.
