Show HN: YC for YC Rejects (strideecosystem.com)
1 points by Asadrhmn 887 days ago
Hey HN,

there are so many 10/10 ideas and people that never get into YC because of the sheer number of applicants.

I know that and want to do something about it so I built Stride.

We're a community of 650 (currently) founders building in a ton of different industries, sharing expertise and having weekly events with VC's, founders and angels.

We're in the process of raising a seed round to build out a physical / virtual startup studio similar to YC's offer but for all the entrepreneurs that won't / don't get into YC.

Let's talk about the SF move - YC is bringing back their need to be in SF to attend batches.

Staying put in SF is a miss for YC. The world's changed - talent is everywhere now, global.

But YC is sitting pretty as "Silicon Valley's most successful startup" and won't budge.

I believe in this thesis and I put my money where my mouth is.

I'll build YC for all those that didn't or won't get into YC.

Stay tuned
