A quick question, what benefits do you think applying to YC will give you at this stage of your company's life? Will it make launching easier? If the difficulty with launching is that you need to get the product to work consistently, and the money that YC gives you makes a real difference in hiring someone to fix the consistency issues, then sure, go ahead an apply. Otherwise your efforts may be more usefully directed at actually solving the issue with the product working consistently. If there are other benefits to applying to YC, and you don't have to spend much time to do it, then there is no harm in applying. At worst you'll get a no. I would not get overly enamoured of YC. It's a great accelerator. But there are other good accelerators as well.
