Share your YC application and get a YC rejection email
Hey YC Aspirants, This a fun experiment. But also useful as we used 100+ real YC application data for the core analysis. The bot analyses your YC application on 13 key parameters and will share 3 key reasons for rejection.
Hey YC Aspirants,
Here is a fun project. Get a rejection email for your YC application.
While you all wait with abated breadth for the acceptance/rejection of your YC application, use this fun tool to get an early rejection. :-)
We did analyze 100+ real YC applications (both accepted and rejected ones). While there may be many explained and unexplained reasons why YC might reject your application, we found 13 key aspects that were most common across all these applications.
So, we built a prompt-based decision engine that will give you 3 reasons why you are (or may get) rejected by YC.
Try and have fun. And some learning, too.
