Re:Y Combinator Failed Startups on Friday October 09, 2020 @05:11PM (#24734486)

We aimed to cover different sizes of business, industries, raising funds, etc. as our audience is quite broad.

Re:Y Combinator Failed Startups on Friday October 09, 2020 @05:09PM (#24734470)

Maybe something like this (https://www.failory.com/cemetery), but only for YC startups?

Will add it!

Re:Startup mistakes: Lessons from failed startups on Thursday August 20, 2020 @07:34PM (#24230276)

We didn't find any significant correlation between funding and cause of failure. I guess, however, that this is because our data set was quite limited.

Re:Startup mistakes: Lessons from failed startups on Thursday August 20, 2020 @02:34PM (#24226799)

Hey HN. Founder of Failory here. Thanks so much for the positive & constructive feedback on the post.

We aim to keep publishing more of these researches in order to make it possible to learn from other startups' failures.

If you have any comments or feedback, you can drop me an email at nico[at]failory.com.
