Last-Minute Help for YC Applicants: Our AI Application Advisor

Andi Insider
November 27, 2024

As YC alumni (W22), we at Andi know firsthand how transformative the Y Combinator experience can be. We always try to help as many founders applying as possible with application feedback, but always run out of time. With the application deadline approaching fast, we wanted to offer a helping hand to fellow founders in their final push.

That's why we've created a simple AI tool to assist with your YC application: the YC Application Advisor

https://yc-advisor.vercel.app

Here's how it works:

1. Visit the link and paste in your current application answers. Click "Import Application" to match it up with the questions.

2. Alternatively, fill out individual questions.

3. Click "Submit" to get instant feedback.

The advisor uses AI to provide quick suggestions based on public YC information, our own experiences, and insights from other YC alumni. It's designed to catch common pitfalls and offer improvement ideas in these crucial final hours. It also gives you suggested edits.

Remember, this tool isn't officially affiliated with Y Combinator. It's just us, YC alums, trying to pay it forward. Use it as a quick sanity check, not a replacement for your unique vision and passion.

Whether you use our tool or not, we're rooting for you. The YC application process itself is incredibly valuable for clarifying your startup's vision and strategy.

Good luck to all applicants! You've got this. And remember, even if you don't get in this time, keep pushing forward. Great founders often apply multiple times before getting accepted.

If you use the advisor, we'd love to hear your feedback. And whether you try it out or not - give it a shot and Apply to YC!

Let's build some amazing companies together!
