That's somewhat correct, although we have a bunch of stuff on the back-end that we're not quite ready to talk about yet :)
Not a pivot, just an experiment to see how people respond. Give it a whirl and let us/me know!

More than happy to give it a whirl. Can you elaborate on what you do with the data that's given? Do you store it permanently, how long do you keep it, who else gets to have it?

They use it to generate leads for products, store it indefinitely, and will ask permission before sharing it.

How are you dealing with the fact that even with a sponsor, there's only a 1 in 2-3 (unknown) chance that someone will actually get through the H1-B lottery this year?

I like to think you use some sort of machine learning - You feed it the first few profiles which you do by hand to give the learning some data to start on, then let the machine do its magic.
Also, this is a YC company and it looks like this is a pivot or alternatively they're trying to find more candidates for clients, who then pay them a fee to sort out the visa?
