We received a rejection letter as well, we aren't disappointed, the whole process has been a great learning experience for us, filling out the application and recording the video got us thinking about things we hadn't.
I've also learned to get more feedback and to go to great new places, like wompt and convore to get that feedback.
When we submitted our application we thought that our service was the only service like it out there and we had a hard time explaining our service. But we were wrong just yesterday (1 day before the rejection letter), I found out that there is a similar service and that it was even funded by YC. That service being Songkick. Our lack of research is our own mistake, a mistake we'll learn and grow from.
Today our description is:
Subscriby is like Songkick but for any interest you decide on and like Topspin, it allows brands to connect directly to it's fans to promote and sell.
Yesterday it was:
A service that is like twitter/facebook but provides filtered
updates for relative interests.
And on our website it's:
Subscriby is a User-submitted Micro-news Aggregator. Users subscribe to interests and receive filtered updates of user's selected types.
So I'm not surprised, that out of the very talented people that applied, we got rejected.
Thanks and we'll see you next batch!
