Any plans for YC to get into seed rounds e.g. both to support startups with high potential as well as to potentially offer some of the benefits of YC connections to those who might've gone through another incubator?
(I know YC's policy on incubating startups which have already been through other incubators, which I believe if I recall correctly is a very data-driven "no." My question comes more from the standpoint of whether any YC benefits might be available to startups which already have some success but are still very much in the early stages)

- eganist 11y agoThanks. There are plenty of others trying to apply the YC model in other more niche areas (Mach37 comes to mind here in DC), so it's neat seeing the direction you and the team will continue to take.
