Pippin / Rent the Backyard 做什么

Pippin is building the autonomous homebuilding factory for the $1.7 trillion housing crisis. Building a home requires human labor to: measure, cut, lift, drill, paint, and attach. This labor is used for a building’s: structure, vapor barriers, windows, insulation, siding, roofing, electrical, plumbing, fixtures, appliances, and cabinetry. The construction industry solves this complex variety of tasks by dividing them among tiny companies of specialized artisans. Few lessons learned are shared and the industry has had no growth in labor productivity since 1947. Building technology, methods, and materials have advanced and the constraints limiting home manufacturing can now be removed. Regulations have changed to allow small and simple accessory dwelling units (a.k.a. ADUs or backyard homes), making it easier to mass-produce housing. Pippin started in the ADU market with its brand "Rent the Backyard" and will build duplexes, quadplexes, and eventually large apartment buildings.

Describe what your company does in 50 characters or less.

Autonomous homebuilding factory for housing crisis

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

We're building a factory system that automates homebuilding tasks - measuring, cutting, assembling - focused initially on small, simple backyard homes (ADUs). The goal is to remove human labor bottlenecks that have stagnated construction productivity since 1947 and mass-produce housing units that meet current regulations for ADUs and beyond.

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

We live and work in Oakland, CA, and the company will remain based there after YC.

Explain your decision regarding location.

Oakland has a strong base for construction tech talent and a market in urgent need of more housing supply. Being local allows us to test and build the autonomous factory around real neighborhood ADU projects.
