I met Max just before his YC interview. The fun fact there was that we both have the same firstname, came from the same region (Europe), and work on the same product family (Vulnerability Management).
AppCanary went to YC, and Cyberwatch went back to France.
However, for us that was for the best! Most of our customers indeed really liked the fact that we are a 100% French company.
We are now profitable and provide a complete Server Vulnerability Management + Patch Management solution.
Different paths to glory, but the world is small and I'm sure we'll meet again someday :)
=> I wish you the best at GitHub!
- ontoillogical 9y agoI remember meeting you that day, it was a very surreal start to our summer in Silicon Valley. I'm really happy to hear you're doing well in the space! Building a profitable company is really hard, I should know :)
- peteforde 9y agoTrue story: the first thing Phill told me when he got back is that they'd met some guy from France with an alarmingly similar business model that didn't get into the cohort. Life is funny and the world is small. Glad to hear that you're doing well.
