Show HN: A Graveyard of Startups

[hito20]

I built Startup Graveyard after realizing it's hard to find startups that didn't make it.

You can paste your startup idea, and it will find similar startups that were shut down or abandoned, along with why they failed (when that information is available).

I'd love to hear what the HN community thinks:)

Quick update: I integrated YC data, so Startup Graveyard now searches a much larger set of startup histories. I'm also working on surfacing better explanations for why companies shut down instead of just finding similar startups.

Very cool idea, however the results are hallucinated nonsense.

I have a lot of startup ideas, and of course they’re all billion-dollar ideas. It would be nice to reality check them so I don’t try replicating things that have already failed multiple times.

Thank for the feedback, I am working on the results right now

Quite useful for digging deeper into post mortem analysis uncovering failure modes for startups.
