Describe what your company does in 50 characters or less.

Marketplace for consumer financial products

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

We built LendEDU as a marketplace and comparison site for consumer financial products. Users can transparently compare student loans, personal loans, auto loans, credit cards, banking products, and some insurance offerings. Our goal is to make opaque financial markets simpler and more transparent for consumers who are looking for better options.

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

We're based in Hoboken, NJ now and would move to Mountain View, CA for YC.

Explain your decision regarding location.

We want to be at YC's Mountain View program to tap into their network and experience in scaling startups. Relocating there for the program gives us access to resources and mentors we can't get locally in Hoboken.
