Legacy의 사업 내용

**TL;DR:** Legacy (YC S19) is a startup focused on the fast-growing field of fertility and family planning. Founded at Harvard, the company has now raised $40M from leading investors like FirstMark Capital, Bain Capital Ventures, Section 32, Tribe Capital, and even celebrities like Justin Bieber, The Weeknd, and others. **What we're doing** We aim to change the outdated view that fertility is a "women's issue" by creating an accessible, affordable product for men & people with sperm. This includes everything from a mail-in kit for sperm testing & sperm freezing, personalized sperm improvement products, tele-health, DNA fragmentation analysis, supplements, and more. **Why are we the leader?** The company was founded at Harvard by a team of healthcare and fertility experts. We obsess about talent density and have out-executed our competitors over the past few years. Beyond our D2C channel, we've also unlocked: 1. Nationwide insurance coverage (10M+ lives) 2. Military contracts (Including the Navy SEALs and 15M+ veterans) 3. Employer offerings (Working with the top fertility benefit providers) **Tell me about the team** We're a team of about 30, extremely diverse (majority female, majority immigrants, strong LGBQTIA+ representation, age range of 25-65), and very values driven. Our 5 values are customer centricity, reliability, kindness, openness, and winning.

Company

Company name

Legacy

Describe what your company does in 50 characters or less.

Legacy helps you test, improve, and freeze your sperm

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

We make a direct-to-consumer kit and platform that lets men and people with sperm test their fertility, get personalized sperm health products, and freeze sperm. We combine at-home testing, DNA fragmentation analysis, telehealth consultations, and products for improving sperm quality. Our product addresses a largely unserved market by focusing on male fertility with an accessible, affordable solution.

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

We live and operate in New York, NY, and Cambridge, MA, and plan to continue building the company here after YC.

Explain your decision regarding location.

These two hubs give us access to top talent in both healthcare and tech. Being close to where we started at Harvard and where our team lives supports a values-driven culture and deep domain expertise.

자주 묻는 질문

Legacy의 실제 YC 지원서인가요?

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