Marketplace connecting consumers to financial advisors

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

We built SmartAsset AMP, a platform that connects consumers with up to three fiduciary financial advisors using an algorithm based on client profiles. Alongside educational content and tools, the marketplace helps advisors find qualified leads and close deals efficiently.

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

We live in New York City now. After YC, the company would remain headquartered in New York, but we also have a distributed team working remotely.

Explain your decision regarding location.

New York is a major financial hub, which gives us direct access to financial advisors and a large market of consumers interested in personal finance. Our remote flexibility also allows us to hire talent outside the city.
