I started on a similar thing a couple of months back but didn’t make it to YC. I talked to a bunch of folks and demoed then an MVP, but couldn’t get any paying users. Covid-19 hit and I had to find a paying job to make ends meet after many months on it.

I open sourced my work to make something out of it. Not as polished as BaseDash or popsql. It’s MIT licensed.

Congrats BaseDash on making it to YC and getting this far. I wish you best of luck. Even though I’m a bit jealous.

Don't feel bad. I was in your situation in the past. Don't give up. I have finally been able to launch a quite successful product (being used by a significant people daily). I plan to apply to YC this September. I don't want to put my product here because I don't want to steal thunders from BaseDash.

I believe a majority of YC founders apply multiple times, often across multiple companies. Personally, I started 2 companies, applied 4 times, interviewed 2 times, across 4 years before getting in with BaseDash.

Definitely try again, YC is worth it.
