Open Sourcing The Project 🚀🚀🚀

searchable companies, a live hiring board, an idea-validator that finds similar YC bets to whatever you're working on, a gamified success-prediction tool, and email digests for new batches.

all of it is live at https://github.com/KonstantinMB/exploreyc

all of it is now in the repo, MIT-licensed: React 19 + FastAPI + Supabase, OpenAI embeddings, Perplexity for research, deployed on Vercel and Render.

why open it up: the PH launch made it clear there's an audience of YC-curious builders who want to dig deeper than what the hosted site shows them.

some of you want different filters. others want a CLI.. others want to plug in their own data sources or fork it for a different accelerator.

I can't build all of those — but you can.
