We've applied along with 50k applicants (http://blog.ycombinator.com/startup-school-online-registrati...) and we are in this batch along with 3000 other startups coming from all corners of the world (startup founder track).

In our case, we've built MyAppConverter about three years ago, starting from native iOS to native Android code conversion and now building an online mobile application porting platform. We've applied and we feel so privileged to have been selected because it costs us nothing except our time we have to put in (watching lectures, online group sessions, tutor/advisor sessions and assignments). We do not have to move to SV (as yet) and yet benefit from shared valuable experiences amongst YC fellows as well as from other entrepreneurs.

Hey man, we're in the same group (62), can't wait to learn more about your business!

At first I thought everybody got in, but now I see I was pretty damn lucky with my product Median (www.median.tech), since I'm solo.

This MOOC is just the best, I didn't expect there would be so much community around it. As a solo founder, I'm very grateful be in a group with other founders from all around the world.

That's really cool. We've built the first online mobile application porting platform.

We currently offer two options: Self-Service Option (99$ USD) (recommended if you have in-house Android experts): You use our UI porting platform to port your entire iOS UI elements (storyboard and xib) to native Android UI (xml). Before you purchase this, you get to view it online (we use appetize.io to let our customer to view online the Android UI output before purchasing the Android source code). We offer this at 99$ USD per porting session. The output you pay for is a full Android UI source which you can start from (to edit in Android Studio) to complete manually the app and get the final Android application. That means you can hire any expert Android developer to do this manual work, yet still saving you some time, effort and money. If you are looking at this option, it is a self-service. Just login to myappconverter.com and upload your iOS storyboard project and follow the instructions. We do offer 15 days free support on our UI output products. Fully Managed Porting Service Option (Starting from 3000$ USD) (recommended if you don't have any Android experts): You really want to use our accredited experts engineering team at MyAppConverter to take the UI Android and complete the work to deliver you a full working Android application. In this case, once your upload your entire iOS project, you ask us for a free/no-obligation quote. For that quoted price, you will get a full working native Android app and its Android source code. The way we work is that you will be receiving a series of apks for you to test and you report all issues/bugs through our bug tracking portal; you will typically get the first UI based apk, then the next one will be including some logics and more functionalities, until the final apk represents the fully working & tested app on Android. On average, the porting timeline is around 3 to 5 weeks. We tend not to take porting projects in excess of 5 weeks work to minimise customer delivery risks. This is the full turnkey option and yet fast, efficient & price competitive. We have both our in house resources also a handful carefully selected and accredited freelancers. Let me know if you need further information.

The UI porting is around storyboard and xib . We port this instantly with our porting tool to native android.

We are three co-founders based out of London and Casablanca.

Median looks really cool.

On a side note, Median looks fantastic. Hope you guys (just you?) go far!
