Messenger for communities

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

We built a messenger designed specifically for communities. It makes it easy for anyone to start and grow their own chat community, focused on safe self-expression, making new friends, and learning. Unlike generic group chats, Openland supports active and supportive long-term communities online.

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

We live and operate out of San Francisco, California, but have a distributed team working remotely as well. Post-YC, we'll continue based in San Francisco with remote contributors.

Explain your decision regarding location.

San Francisco is where we can find top engineering talent and be close to investors. Our remote setup allows us to stay flexible while maintaining strong ties here.
