Hello fellow rejects, let's try and figure out why we were rejected. Layout your information here, and maybe if we have enough we can recognize some kind of pattern.
Pros-
2 founders- 6 years together, literally saved each other's lives.
Field experts.
5k monthly profit.
Could easily monopolize a billion dollar market.
Cons-
Might be hard to go IPO, or be bought.
B corp
Unusual field(Ed tech seems harder for most to grasp)
Not doing something original, just removing human labor from the process
I'm confused a bit by this. You're both suggesting what your pros and cons are. I thought the best way would be to do an intro of your business and see if we could find a thread there as to why we weren't selected.
Out of curiosity, was your demo video ever viewed? I can see from Youtube stats that nobody in the US ever viewed it, and one person in France viewed it for 3 seconds. I'd suggest I never even got a fair shake, and this was after a YC Alum helped with my application and felt I had a good chance.
