Чем занимается Human Interest

Human Interest is on a mission to ensure that people in all lines of work have access to retirement benefits. Nearly half of all working Americans are not saving enough for their future. Too often it’s because they are employed by a company that doesn’t offer a retirement plan. Human Interest is changing that by making it affordable and accessible for small and medium-sized businesses to offer employees a path to financial independence through retirement savings. We’re a high-growth tech company changing the retirement industry. We’ve raised $500M and are backed by leading investors. Most recently, by funding from BlackRock as well as many other top investors: TPG (The Rise Fund) with SoftBank led our Series D, Glynn Capital, NewView Capital, USVP, Wing, Uncork, and others.

We built a platform that makes it easy and affordable for small and medium-sized businesses to offer retirement savings plans to their employees. Our product manages all the compliance, administration, and investing, so employers and employees can focus on actually saving for retirement, not paperwork.

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

We live in San Francisco, CA and have a remote team. The company would remain based in San Francisco after YC.

San Francisco has the talent pool and investor network critical for scaling a fintech company focused on retirement benefits. Remote work helps us tap broader engineering talent while staying rooted here.

Часто задаваемые вопросы

Это реальная заявка Human Interest в YC?

Нет. Y Combinator держит поданные заявки в приватности. Это реконструкция: реальные вопросы формы YC, ответы на которые основаны на публичных данных Human Interest (заметки о запуске, бэкграунд фаундеров, описание продукта). Это показывает, как компания вроде Human Interest представила бы себя YC, а не текст, который они подали.
