I did, although I don’t really have any traction at the moment. So my chances are not that high. 😅

@sagarpatel10 Miracles happen.
With all actuality, I did not apply yet because I am launching my new CRM CJPath
@hungryhelen It is a CRM made by salespeople for salespeople. It does help you increase you conversion rate to the possible max. You can give it a try, it is free.
@ayoub_mouhachtt you can still apply
@ayoub_mouhachtt would love to hear more about it!
Cool video. Thumbs up! Just curious, you guys have 200 paying customers and you are applying to YC? ❓
@michael_guan1 YC is for companies from idea stage all the way to 1m ARR
@michael_guan1 cool video) agree)
Good luck to the best team ever!
@victoria_hill1 thanks Vic!!
High marks Just wondering why you guys are applying to YC when you have 200 paying clients.
@grace_gomez1 is that good or bad hahah I don’t get it?
I'm definitely putting in an application, need to work on it this week
Anyone got and good resources for this from YC alumnii??
@william_mathews1 dm me on linkedin, can share insights, spoke to 7 alums and had my app reviewed by another 15.
Great video! Short and to the point! I like how you mentioned that this team has already built stuff together.. maybe you can also mention what the results were or put numbers to it? ‘We’ve built 10 apps together in the crypto space that has had combined user base of 7K people’? That’s my only advice, otherwise it’s perfect
@henry_habib thank you loads, wish we had your feedback earlier
One can hope for the best! It’s always tough to get it right, but having a product you believe in and being able to clearly communicate on what and why you are doing is a huge step forward.
@arthur_romanov agreed 100%

@aurther_bella I guess we need to do a better job explaining ourselves
The idea is good but YC doesn't want videos with pre planning in their application..they clearly mention it in their instructions for applying. They want you to speak naturally.
@keyurahuja bullet points, it’s hard to have a natural chat with 5 people in the video
This is a great idea, guys.
YC should give it a chance.
200 paying customers and $40,000 in monthly revenue aren't bad.
I'm curious: when did Clustr launch?
@judith_amarachi_ thanks we’ll keep our fingers crossed, we launched this July
I have not applied
Good luck to the best team ever!
@david_strc thanks a bunch!
Launching soon!
Thank you for asking. I'm in the process of applying.
@dineshan_sithamparanathan good luck man, lmk if I can help in any way
i don't want to apply, because i don't want to apply.
Best of luck! My co-founder and I got our app in last week 🚀
@entreeden same here, good luck guys
I am going to apply; however, your video is clear, concise, and to the point.
Best wishes to you and your team !!
@amit_mirgal thank you, good luck on your application also, lmk if I can help
Thanks for sharing the video. I'm applying and will submit our application this week before the deadline. For anyone applying, I would recommend reading Paul Graham's guide (logic) on what makes a good application - https://www.ycombinator.com/howt...
