Barring a new remote dining edition of Grubwithus, I'll have to wait for the Winnipeg dinners for YC alumni. :)
But in all seriousness, I'd love it if someone would consider taking a glance at our application. People who should know have been telling us we're on to something, but I worry that we're just not communicating that effectively. I could pledge to eat during the feedback process if that helps.
- sawyer 16y agoWindsoc does look like a good idea, implementing individual APIs is a pain. I'm no YC alum, and I'm not sure if there are any competitors providing the same service; but it sounds like a promising service.
- wolfrom 16y agoThank you for your feedback. There are competitors providing something similar, but not in the way we think developers require. They're also more focused on selling to large corporations rather than working with smaller ventures.
- webwright 16y agoIs there any reason you wouldn't email as many YC founders as it took to get feedback?
- wolfrom 16y agoI've e-mailed some whom I've already met, but I guess I've always approached it as I would speaking to investors, that cold pitches don't work. And I wonder what would happen if all 1600 applicants did the same.
- webwright 16y agoI think you're right about investors and wrong about YC founders. Put yourself in a YC founder's shoes. If you got a cold pitch from an applicant, would you respond? (note: I get emails every application season and always reply...)
- Alex3917 16y agoI'll take a look at your app if you want, I already talked with you guys at LAUNCH so I understand much of it already.
- wolfrom 16y agoExcellent! Thanks, Alex, it's on its way to you.
