I really understand that when you say that, which is exact what we are doing for last 8 months. But its just that when something like instacart comes up , you tend to get distracted and think there are people who are playing the smart card, and getting in. May be we are just dumb you are sitting and slogging, and waiting to be discovered.
A small note btw : YC is not a VC , so your line doesnt actually hold. My idea of YC was a place where you go more raw than one with traction. The eco system, the mentoring, the energy helps you iterate and fix fast, and find yourself the market fit. Its more about picking the right space by the right people, acknowledging the challenges and demonstrating that you have a vague idea on how we can tackle that.

I have read through this. But thats what i think now getting selected at YC is not much on the application but a lot of getting in touch with people individually and drawing attention to your application. We cant do that we are not based in the US ! :(
Is someone looking at the Y Combinator applications now?
YCombinator applications are always open under the name of late applications. What intrigues me , if i apply now , will someone read/evaluate it today or along with the next batch?

Floost : a userful version of Pinterest and less of a Toy
On qoura someone quoted our startup among a list of Pinterest look alikes. We would have been really upset about it that after 18 months of effort, if you qouted that way. But just before we even noticed , a floost user responded saying " You guys have actually found a more useful version of Pinterest, and it looks less like a toy ". That was really interesting and sorta hit the right chord...
