If they're comparing themselves to YC their monetization model is probably investing... right?

Probably, but I'm still curious. And if it's through investing, what ownership stake do they usually ask for?

Ah thanks, that answers the question. Seems like a decent offer, although I imagine the would only offer this to a limited amount of founders.

Also I find it hilarious that they include a "A 1-year subscription to The Economist." in there.
