If the applicants have a demo-ready B2C product, MTs [1] might even be consistently better at picking winners than YC, as the ultimate success depends on what MTs think, since MTs[2] approx= common people approx= customers.
[1] Given enough MTs
[2] Provided you restrict allowed MT demographic to match your target market

- kirubakaran 17y agoYes, which is why I said "If [they] have a demo-ready B2C product". YC is more early stage than what you can meaningfully show MT. Also: If users love your product (not just the idea) and pay, you have already demonstrated that you are a good team, and it is pretty easy to persevere when you have an increasing number of paying customers.
