This is the inaugural "Meet the Batch" post that we discussed a few days ago:

You are invited to share your questions, thoughts, feedback, and experiences in any of these spaces! Simply reply to the founder's post you want to discuss.
We use maps and workflow tools to reduce the time it takes to deploy a new site by up to 75%, saving tens of thousands of dollars. Wireless carrier radio planners can easily search, identify and acquire sites for deploying antennae whilst the tower providers and real estate owners can market and monetise their assets to the telecom market.
I (Daniel) have worked in telecoms my whole career and worked in more than 30 countries. The same issue exists in every market so there is a rather big opportunity ($40B is spend on wireless infrastructure globally per year!) if we can get some solid product market fit. We’d love to speak to any of you that are curious about what we’re doing or if you have any ideas/challenges for us.
