We build FocalOS, a system that uses computer vision and deep learning to digitize store shelves hourly in grocery and other retail stores. Our product automates inventory tracking and optimizes merchandising so store managers can make fast, data-driven decisions without manual stock checks or guesswork.

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

We are based in San Francisco, Toronto, and London. After YC, the company would remain headquartered in San Francisco.

San Francisco is a tech hub with strong AI and retail networks, which helps us recruit top engineers and close deals. Our presence in Toronto and London keeps us close to key markets and engineering talent, but SF will remain our main base.
