Location sharing with friends

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

We built GlassMap to let people share their location and activities with friends in a clean, simple way. It helps users find each other spontaneously, coordinate meetups, and discover what's happening nearby. It's a social location-sharing app for iOS and Android focused on real-time presence and serendipity.

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 here now and would remain here after YC.

Explain your decision regarding location.

San Francisco is where our users and the tech community are, so it makes sense to build and operate GlassMap from here.
