Clear의 사업 내용

On the surface, Clear is a free mobile app where consumers track routines, products and selfies, get brand-agnostic recommendations, and learn from others in the community. Underneath, we’re building a vertically focused AI/data platform that helps consumers, clinicians, and brands understand what actually works, for whom, and why. The skincare industry is worth over $200B globally, yet it still runs largely on guesswork: consumers waste money on trial-and-error, brands lack real-world evidence, and dermatologists have limited visibility into day-to-day product use and outcomes. Clear is brand-agnostic, data-rich, and community-driven. Every routine log, product review, and progress update helps create a unique longitudinal dataset across skin concerns, routines, and outcomes - powering better decisions for users and better innovation for the wider industry. We were the 2022 L’Oréal Beauty Tech for Good winners, have been recognised by Beiersdorf, and have been featured multiple times by Apple, including App of the Day and Best New Apps.

Company

Company name

Clear

Describe what your company does in 50 characters or less.

The unbiased AI and data layer for skin health

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

We built a mobile app where users track skincare routines, products, and selfies, and get brand-agnostic recommendations. Behind the scenes, we create a data platform that uses AI to identify what actually works for skin health, helping consumers, clinicians, and brands make better decisions.

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

We live in London and the company is currently remote. After YC, we plan to remain flexible but continue operating primarily remotely with a London base.

Explain your decision regarding location.

We're based in London where both founders live. Remote work suits the early-stage team size and lets us tap talent without relocation. YC offers the network and funding we need to grow from here.

자주 묻는 질문

Clear의 실제 YC 지원서인가요?

아닙니다. Y Combinator는 제출된 지원서를 비공개로 유지합니다. 이것은 재구성된 것입니다. 실제 YC 양식 질문에 Clear의 공개 데이터(출시 노트, 창업자 배경, 제품 설명)를 기반으로 답변했습니다. Clear과 같은 회사가 YC에 어떻게 자신을 소개하는지 보여주며, 그들이 제출한 텍스트는 아닙니다.
