Used car marketplace

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

We built a service that lets buyers tell us what used car they want. We then find them the best pre-owned vehicles matching that request at the lowest price. After purchase, we inspect, detail, and deliver the car, backed by a 7-day money-back guarantee. Our product simplifies what is normally a frustrating, time-consuming process with no need to haggle or comb through listings.

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

We live and work in San Francisco, CA. We will remain based here after YC.

Explain your decision regarding location.

San Francisco is where our team is, and it's the center of tech and startup activity. Being here keeps us close to our customers and the resources we need to grow.
