$3k is enough to live off of in specific circumstances, but I'd have to imagine that most of us would need a bit more than that -- especially those of us with a family


What are you talking about? They're going to be streamed...


I meant streamed live :p Seems like they will be pre-recorded and released.


No founder would be willing to pitch to the general public. Companies are providing very private information (economics, stats, etc) that should not be made public.


I and several other founders are doing this on the Pioneer livestream next week. It's earlier stage than most YC companies but not afraid of a little transparency https://pioneer.app/livestream

In fact, there are whole communities built around publicly sharing your companies' financial metrics. Eg https://www.indiehackers.com/products


Companies are sharing very private information - disclosing economics, stats, etc - to which only prospective investors would/should have access.


You're improperly editing... both the HN title and the NYT piece say "One of the (start your quote) World's most valuable privately held companies".


It's still kind of implying that it's up there with the big boys, but it's really not. Especially since this is just based on a round of funding which creates unreasonable valuations by design.


You're right. I should have edited my comment properly. I sincerely apologize. My point was to indicate that they are non startup companies, privately held, that are wayyy more valuable than SpaceX or Uber. Sorry about this.


Why is thus product focused on startups, and why is this better than angel list?
