About Pointhound
Pointhound is revolutionizing how people travel by making credit card points work for them. We help people earn and maximize their credit card points, then turn those points into free flights worldwide. Our mission is to make travel accessible to everyone by unlocking the true value of credit card rewards. Whether it's a dream vacation to Bali or a quick weekend getaway, we're helping people explore the world without spending thousands on airfare.
Founded by proven entrepreneurs with a track record of success, we're a Y Combinator-backed startup led by experienced founders who understand how to build and scale successful consumer businesses. Our founding team previously built Feather, raising $75M in venture capital before a successful exit in 2022. As second-time YC founders, we bring deep experience in building useful consumer products by focusing on the user.
