Rough number.

How do you make money right now?

Be specific. Rough monthly number is fine.

07 / 07

What makes you hard to beat, and what would you build?

Could be your audience, your network, your customers, past companies, what you know better than most. Be specific. "I have 5 ideas, no clue" works fine for the build part.

Why this exists

Y Combinator picks startups. We pick creators.

Most places that help startups ask "how good is the startup?" We ask "how good is your audience?" Because we already know how to build the startup. We've done it 100+ times. What we don't have is your audience.

Who applies

We turn down most. That's the point.

You should apply if

  • Your audience actually pays attention to you
  • You already make money from them
  • You want to OWN a product, not just promote other people's stuff
  • You move fast. We want partners, not pen pals.

You shouldn't apply if

  • You don't make any money from your audience yet
  • You treat content as a hobby
  • You're looking for a course or a coaching call
  • You want someone you can boss around, not a partner
