At Alchemy, our mission is to build a nanotechnology company for the 21st century. As a team, we’re pretty obsessive about this mission and relentless about accomplishing it.
Alchemy is a growing, Y-Combinator funded startup, and is backed by leading angel investors and venture capitalists all over the world. We’re also supported by top institutions like Stanford-StartX, University of Waterloo, Velocity, and the Creative Destruction Lab.
Our first product, ExoShield, is a thin, transparent film that prevents the windshield from breaking - like a phone screen protector built for your car. With rapidly increasing windshield replacement costs due to advanced driver assistance systems in modern vehicles, the market for windshield protection has grown exponentially over the last few years, and ExoShield is now available in more than 35 countries around the world. Our obsession with consistently developing innovative products combined with a passion for delivering the best possible customer experience has helped us reinvent the windshield protection film industry.
