> The bigger concern I would have with applying to YC in your case is the existential question, "Should I take VC money or not?" What I don't see above is an understanding of the why behind financing. How will financing accelerate your business?

So it goes back to my earlier point about a baseline for getting accepted which my application would not cut since I don't have hard data to show CAC, LTV and other relevant metrics. It's certainly not set in stone as a small number of very early stage companies do get accepted, but in general products have to be much further along to have a serious chance of acceptance, or at least that's the impression I get.
