I've seen a lot of smaller outstaffing companies like moonlightwork.com offering remote employees and it's a good way to keep your costs low. The lights will go out quickly if you get developers at $50-$100 an hour and upwork is hit or miss and you can waste a lot of time. Toptal seems good but not cheap. Check out intellabridge.com they have good mid-level remote developers you can hire for $18-$20 an hour and they specialize in designing and building MVPs.

yes good idea. can you set it up?

For the event to get good PR, it would need to include some of the companies who either got a video interview last week but no in-person interview or the companies which got an invite to interview but don't get through the final round. Those companies are obviously strong companies if they were selected for an interview. But those results won't be out for another couple weeks.

cool. Thanks for taking the lead on this!

Congratulations to those of you invited an interview! If unfortunately you don't get in, check out a group which is getting together to set up a Demo Day for rejects after the YC demo day: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14144922

We got a pre-interview where one of the YC partners asked some questions about the business model, so we were optimistic, but got a rejection letter today. For those of you who got an interview, congratulations! Good luck with your interview, but just in case it doesn't work out, check out this group which is thinking about setting up a Demo Day after the YC demo day for those who didn't make it: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14144922

yes exactly! the day after YC demo day.

We will be in Palo Alto, so we can help organize the event.

Good idea!

We'll be in ABQ in a few weeks on my way to SFO. I just checked out your site. Very cool product. We could meet for a coffee if you want?

We're in!

We got a video interview last week which seemed like a good sign, but then came the rejection letter today. I was just thinking about setting up a post-demo day event for us rejects and found this thread. I'm glad to see others had the same idea. We are actually going with our original plan to move to California from Europe despite the rejection. We would be very interested in connecting and helping to organize such an event. I like your idea to call it YnotC or similar as the brand will get attention. Domain name ynotc.co is available. Who is taking the lead on this?
