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

We built an app that lets people send money instantly and without fees from North America and Europe to recipients in Africa, Asia, and the Americas. It's designed for users who want to avoid banks' high fees and slow international transfers. Our product handles complex currency exchange and regulatory hurdles to deliver money directly and quickly.

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

We live in Boston, MA and the company is headquartered here, but many team members work remotely as well.

Explain your decision regarding location.

Boston has a strong fintech and startup community, plus access to talent. Remote work lets us connect with people wherever they are, which is important given our global focus.
