What does your product do in 15 words or less?

The first question in the Y Combinator application is to describe your company in a sentence. Doing so enabled me to better articulate what my product does.

Would love to hear what everyone else is working on! Make sure to include a link to your app 😄


I'll start:

    Violet.io - A unified API for any product on the internet.

    We actually used this line on our YC application for the Summer '19 cohort and did get invited to come interview. We ultimately didn't get accepted, with Aaron Harris' feedback being that they couldn't figure out how we could get major platforms to use our API. A short while later Facebook began utilizing our API, so I guess we were able to figure it out.
