Ever wanted to ask the YC partners a question?

Ever try to remember advice from a YC podcast that's on the tip of your tongue but can’t quite remember?

Want YC’s perspective for important startup decisions?

Now you can ask “ChatYC” for all your needs! (Unofficial chatbot)

Some examples:

- What should I include in my monthly investor updates?

- Explain like Im five what pro rata means

- Should I hire a lawyer for my early stage startup?

- whats the difference between a priced round and safe?

- What is dilution? Can you explain like I am five

- any tips for traits to look for in founding engineers?

- when should I raise a seed round?

- are startup advisors valuable?

We built this as a proof of concept and to showcase a new tool we’re building: ChatGPT for customer support. We’ve started working with some partners to ingest their public docs (and previous support chats via email/Slack/Intercom/Discord/etc) to help answer customer support and onboarding questions.

Note: This bot was trained on ONLY public content from https://www.ycombinator.com/library - so it might not be able to answer all your questions. But it's a great starting point for new founders!
