## YC company profile

AI-native electronics manufacturing for the American industrial base

ProvenMetal manufactures the fastest circuit boards in the United States.

Domestic circuit board manufacturing is slow and expensive, and while reshoring is happening, the supply chain isn't there yet.

We automate the bottlenecks - part procurement, DFM review, and assembly - delivering circuit boards in days instead of weeks.
