YC Rejection

Share your YC application and get a YC rejection email

Hey YC Aspirants, This a fun experiment. But also useful as we used 100+ real YC application data for the core analysis. The bot analyses your YC application on 13 key parameters and will share 3 key reasons for rejection.

Hey YC Aspirants, Here is a fun project. Get a rejection email for your YC application. While you all wait with abated breadth for the acceptance/rejection of your YC application, use this fun tool to get an early rejection. :-) We did analyze 100+ real YC applications (both accepted and rejected ones). While there may be many explained and unexplained reasons why YC might reject your application, we found 13 key aspects that were most common across all these applications. So, we built a prompt-based decision engine that will give you 3 reasons why you are (or may get) rejected by YC. Try and have fun. And some learning, too. -Siva

@siva_surendira this seems really cool, is there any platform where the previously accepted applications get a review on what they did right?

Interesting. I would love to see everyone else's anonymized rejection analysis or letter.

@jsteneros If the user decides to share, will list them for sure. Thanks for the suggestion.

Congratulations on your launch! 🎉 This seems like a fun way to make 'failing' more palatable and less personal- as self reflection only goes so far, and personal bias can get in the way from meaningful take away. 🥲 Are you thinking of adding a community aspect to this as well? I think a lot of users could connect over rejection and maybe a forum type of "share" feature would fit well here.
