Show HN: Chrome extension to see if the site you're on belongs to a YC company
- adrianthedev 5y agoHey, This is Adrian, a full-stack dev and co-founder at basetool.io. I always wanted a quick way to know if the website I was on belongs to a company that graduated from Y Combinator. So I would always go to https://ycombinator.com/companies https://ycombinator.com/companies and search for that website. I created this extension in about two days that turns the Y icon from gray to orange if the site belongs to a YC company. When you click on it, it will also display some data about that company like the batch it was in, location, industry, and short one-liner. If you like it, please leave a review on the chrome web store. https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/yc-snooper/iiicmiafnggflgppnlbbcgjmglfcmonp https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/yc-snooper/iiicmia... Thanks, -Adrian
- Yousefales 5y agoThis is so awesome. I would actually take it even further to include the other big names.. stars, play and five hundred. I personally wouldn't mind having four extensions if it can't be this seamless were they included in a one extention. Thank you Adrian!
- adrianthedev 5y agoThanks for writing back! I guess that could be done, but that's a whole other rabbit hole (scrape every site, maintain the scraper...).
