Yes you can apply. But.

If you want to develop software for clients at their request, then it will be hard for YC to invest in your company.

If you develop proprietary software and license it to other companies that will need support, and customization, then it should be fine.

If your service allows clients to outsource customer service operations or IT support and you show you can easily scale it, then it should be fine.

We have a mixed model : We have developed few reuseable components for quick IPhone development. However, people using those would be developers. I dont have the numbers though. You might consider reviwing our startup at (www.geniteam.com).
