> YC's goal is to help startups take first baby steps and raise money on a larger scale. I thought YC companies have moved up in maturity over the years. More specifically, I thought current YC batches have more companies that have built product, found early product/market fit and are now ready to grow. While phrased as a statement, the above is more of a question, since I don't know the answer. That said, "and raise money on a larger scale" is still probably spot on and hasn't change much over the years.
