I'm not affiliated with YC and they might still be interested in your startup but I'm curious why you are interested in YC at this stage. Is it for the cap table signaling?
Your description sounds like you are beyond the accelerator/seed stage so the standard deal valuation and funding amount are too low. You also mention being too busy to take advantage of the networking opportunities provided by the program.
Being profitable but capital constrained, have you looked at debt financing opportunities? Do you need investors and a network or do you just need cash to accelerate growth?
- joshpadnick 6y agoSee my reply to sibling comment for what we're looking for. Re: debt, we've considered it, but our goal is to expand knowing the economic environment might hit us harder than expected. So equity feels like a better fit. In the end, we're looking for advice, support, and cash.
