Ask HN: Where do I find a list of inactive YC companies

from the ask-hn dept.

Hi HN, I'm doing some research on startup failure patterns and am particularly interested in analyzing YC companies that are no longer active. YC has a list of (mostly active) companies on https://www.ycombinator.com/companies but I was wondering if there's a way to filter by or find inactive companies.

Thanks!

You can also find the list from YC Graveyard [1]. The website collects the data from S05 batch.
