If you go through the most recent YC batches, it's insane how much of their "customer list" is just other companies in the same or recent batches
Yeah, they raise a massive round on traction from other YC companies then need to find the real Product Market Fit (enterprise and others) after that round. It's actually very inefficient
It's the YC playbook. I guess it works, Corgi for example a "AI" insurance company with like only 5 real engineers and a bunch of growth people. Their main customer is other startups mostly YC. Same with Delve.
I was genuienly confused till the pricing and tipping section.
It says something about the state of the world that I was genuinely uncertain whether this was actually a joke right until the last paragraph.<p>Very well done.
Okay, that's genuinely funny. Sadly, it might be a little subtle for the folks who need to feel the mockery most.
I was able to close my first series A after just a few hours of using this. I wish the rate limits were higher though.
It worked for NVidia.
What people miss from these things is that there is economic value being created.<p>For example, if you gift someone a $100 Amazon gift card, but they also gift you a $100 Amazon gift card. Has any gift actually been exchanged? Yes, the sentiment of giving.<p>Or if someone pays you $100 to eat a pile of shit, and then you use the same $100 to pay them to eat a pile of shit, you both have eaten, but the money is in the same place it started.<p>In the end, if you paint a big enough picture, all money flow in an economy is circular anyway.
you’re literally scamming VCs lol
