Hi sjroot, you're correct. I mentioned in the talk that we started with music and discovered how much deeper it is. The actual app itself has social features and in the alpha version we're testing we have our video (think Snapchat for Music) feature. We'll be building out the food and events recommendations in our next couple sprints. Thanks for asking, I hope that helps. We should really update our website.

Thanks to the YC team for the opportunity. Our advisor (whom is also Sequoia backed) had a breadth of knowledge. Listening to his advice to other teams was very valuable. The next best value was watching the partners conduct Office Hours.

Would definitely love feedback for our presentation https://www.startupschool.org/presentations/355

And if you're an immigrant living in the US, I'd love to chat about the experience. Best of hard work to everyone.

Do you think getting into Startup School will mean you didn't get into YC Accelerator?

Just how it is described. Any suggestions on how to go further than a video interview the next time you apply? What do you all look for?

Hey Aaron, If you've previous applied and got at least to a video interview. Can it work against you if you've slightly changed your answer to 'Describe your company...' and 'What will your company make'?

Based on the S17 batch, what %age were People of color, women and LGBT?

YC sends out emails to previous applicants who were in some percentile but weren't accepted to encourage them to apply again.

Are their chances any better? What could've happened since the last application that would make their current application worse?

What are the current in-between steps for YC? What normally happens after application submitted but before acceptance e.g. in person interviews, video interviews? What other steps are involved and what's the reason for them?
