A few days ago, I read a post on Reddit saying that if you don t reach 200 users for your tool in the first month (in this particular case, the guy was talking about a Chrome extension), then your tool is no good and you should move on.

I was scared for a moment because I definitely don t meet this with my extension (now I m somewhere around 75 users in 5 weeks).

The Y Combinator has posted the topics (products) it wants to cover and support.

Here is a list of them:

• The Primer  AI education with personalised learning

• The Future of American Defense (Drones, sensors, interceptors,...)

• A Cloud for Small Software

• Multiplayer AI (Teams collaborating with shared AI agents)

• Compute at Sea (Offshore data centres)

• AI-Powered Consumer Products for 1 Billion People

• AI for the Ageing Population

• New Operating Systems for the Physical World

• The Best Time to Build in Crypto (stablecoins, agentic commerce)

• Data for the Real World

• Proving You're Human

• AI-Native Compliance Infrastructure

• Self-Maintaining APIs

My current situation is that my tool has been downloaded 157 times.

Let's say 120 times were installed uniquely.

And 32 times uninstalled.

There are 50 active users now.
