My guess is that about 50% are repeat founders and a majority of the rest are FAANG, Ivy League, or Stanford alums. (This is a genuine guess, not a knock on YC)

Looks great, congrats on launching! I'm curious how you differentiate yourselves from Airbyte, which isn't really designed for reverse ETL but can be used for it. And do you ever see Castled supporting regular ETL? Right now there
