I disagree; just applying forced us to ask ourselves a slew of critical questions about our business (http://techcrunch.com/2012/04/27/be-concise-the-top-questions-asked-at-a-y-combinator-interview/ http://techcrunch.com/2012/04/27/be-concise-the-top-question...).
We interviewed and were declined, but the journey was well worth the time and effort. The entire YC process is an excellent crucible for startups, and as usual you get out of it what you put in.
- bliti 11y agoThe YC application is what I use whenever I get one of those brilliant ideas. It helps me figure out if it has raw potential or if Im just full of crap. I've managed to only get one idea through the process. The one that has been profitable for a while now. :) Thanks YC
- sparkzilla 11y agoYou should be asking yourself the questions anyway. You have practically zero chance of being accepted and the process is opaque. Spend your time working on your business instead.
