Yarn (YC W24)
Yarn is an AI-native platform that lets go-to-market teams make agency-quality product, sales, and marketing videos in minutes instead of weeks.

The pitch is speed and cost - videos that would take an agency weeks and thousands of dollars, produced in-house in under 20 minutes.

He now lives in New York City, angel-investing in 40+ companies and staying active in the startup ecosystem.
