Hey all, We've just submitted our YC application for Winter 2019. However, we know that a similar company is already in 2018 batch. Just curious if YC be accepting such kind of companies or avoid them in the name of "conflict of interest"!
I really don't think they reject based on "conflict of interest". I don't remember the name of the companies but I've seen similar companies in different batches but they've been a few years apart.
Somewhere in those yc blog articles I read they do accept companies with similar ideas. I can't give reference right now, will appreciate if any one post a link to it.
