I am betting that competition is so stiff at this point that you'd seriously hurt your chances by not having a slick demo.

- JasonBerlinsky 20y agoWell, the demo is not everything. According to this article, you must also be able to change ideas and trains of thought. What good will a demo do if you are ultimately going to change your train of thought and move on to something else?
- sharpshoot 20y agoDemos are great to crstallise thoughts and really build the platform for your application. Don't underestimate the value of the experience gained by putting put a demo. Afterall, you want to build something people use - you can't do that with an idea. We've got a number of applications around the same core bunch of ideas. prototyping one application and getting people using it couldn't be a better validation of one's ability to execute when it comes to Y combinator. Lying back on an idea and waiting doesn't show anyone you want to make it happen. If your idea changes - well it just means you've proved you can execute before. Get a demo out even if its very rough (anything is). Just start!
