Founders in this batch will have an in-person retreat in Sonoma to kick things off, along with weekly meetups in San Francisco and other cities worldwide.

During demo day at Y Combinator, we showcased our product and met with investors, which was a pivotal moment for us.

We aim to automate administrative tasks for startups, allowing founders to focus on building and shipping their products instead.

Founders are eager to meet in person, moving away from Zoom and cameras, which has created a lot of excitement for this batch.

Connecting with fellow founders in the batch and receiving feedback has been incredibly beneficial, fostering friendships and support.

Investing in batches allowed us to create a supportive community for founders, making the startup journey less lonely and more efficient for us as investors.

We structured our weekly meetings with Y Combinator partners to ensure accountability and to address feedback effectively.

The founders of a company called Bappy made strategic decisions to relocate to San Francisco and shift their focus to a new product, which has since grown significantly and is now powering many companies in Y Combinator.

We realized that over 6,000 single founders were looking for co-founders, so we are creating a directory to help them connect and build relationships during Startup School.
