You guys did a really great job!

Hey guys Julius (Techstars Alumni 2019), I am just soooo thankful for your videos. This goes out to all alums around the world: Never stop learning. This video showed me again, tech evolves at a speed that one is simply not allowed to drop out of the learning curve for more than a year. Really impressive. Thank you so much for sharing this.

Yes! Please make this series a more regular thing!

Why we don't have more of this videos from YC, they actually provide a lot of value to founders.

Make it into YC, get it all the time.

Thanks for the video, lots of excellent insights to glean from! Always a wealth of information from all your educational material, looking forward to more!

Imagine having access to this kinda quality education like this ❤

Please do more in the future! Perhaps make it into a series of AI startups in different niches e.g. content creation, marketing, healthcare, finance. Great to hear from the top of YC too. Thanks for the sharing :)

please do more of these, lots of good advices

This video is GREAT - super-actionable content & suggestions, thanks Gary!

Love these videos, keep 'em coming!

Awesome piece of content! Best way to learn is through constructive feedback - especially if it is provided by Y!

The design of this video was really clean!

Very insightful for general website design!

Great video guys!!!❤ thank you

16:19 The moment he talks about sensory overload the presentation had a mind blown emoji. I am still cracking Up 🤣😆

This is great! Thanks for sharing gentlemen. 😊😉👍

Wow magicflow is featured❤ congratulations🎊

This content is incredibly valuable

I wish there was a examination of mobile versions as well… in our case 80% are mobile visitors, so it would be useful to understand what are the principles for mobile design

lesson learnt: make it extremely clear what your product does

That's 🔥

The development of AI is unstoppable! The demand for AI specialists is soaring, and they are indeed in high demand! Partnering with a vendor for AI talent can be a game-changer, especially when time is of the essence. With the right vendor, you gain access to a pool of skilled AI engineers without the lengthy recruitment process. This way, you can swiftly assemble a talented team and kickstart your AI projects in no time.

Love this series ❤

Thanks

You don't wanna be clever, if clever is confusing. Wise words.

Honestly, if they could animate pixel art alone that would be, hands down, amazingggggggggggg.

Must be nice to have subordinates who agree on everything with you

more content with similar analysis of startups !)

If your call to action is to have people to try your product, is it good practice to always have an input box for email in the first part of the website, or also fine to leave it at the end, after the person has scrolled through the website to understand what is actually is?

Input box on homepage generally is unnecessary - and it takes screen real estate and cognitive budget away from what you should be doing: making sure people know wtf your company does. -Garry

How do I click the Like button 100 times for this?

Pump listened. I checked their website and they made the needed changes.

Haven’t yc been doing startup critiques for a while now? I’m sure I’ve seen Michael done a few

What do you think about iot based start ups, do they have a good future.

@@ycombinator Thank you

You seem to have a couple of "design principles" in your mind while evaluating these sites. What are they? Is there an article/video you can refer us to?

🙌

I just realized by watching this that this is what I have been doing a lot lately

I have a genuine question, not trying to attack a company or y combinator but I noticed most of these companies have little social presence in terms of low posting, low efforts, low subscribers, etc. .. so how do they get a lot of users then? are there other good strategies besides social media?

@ycombinator

Жыл бұрын

B2B / enterprise / SMB businesses tend to rely less on social media and more on outbound or inbound marketing, which means the website needs to support a sales team or some drip campaign that gets people to convert. Social media is a factor in inbound marketing but not the only one. Events are often much bigger for such businesses.

Can someone explain how Y Combinator went from the likes of Paul Graham and Sam Altman to Garry Tan trolling websites for the font size?

that beard line tho

Meanwhile ChatGPT has the "worst" landing page.

website submission link in description doesn't work :|

I think the name of VoiceFlow is a bit misleading LOL.

How do I do if I want to review mine ??

idk i think pump had a great site. as a dev the tone is so different from other dev tools that it sounds interesting

TLDR; The design of your landing page holds more weight than you think

Tan The Man Spill tHE bAENS bRO ..We EXecuting right now we Keep Going😊😊

For some apps, especially ones for nicher users (for instance reality defender seems to fit this), wouldn't real users who end up on a webpage already know something about what the app does from wherever they heard about the company?

@ycombinator

Yes, but the people who show up will come with varying levels of understanding and you cannot assume really anything about the user. The more you assume, the more the lost opportunity. -Garry

Is that Fireship? IS THAT FIRESHIP? xdd

guess it's all about AI

Stock photos and videos turn me off to a product. Avoid that! They rarely convey any useful information and don’t make me want to buy the product. It’s just distracting. What do pictures of people have to do with your product?

Give them a break man, they're MVPs. jk jk

Same old mistakes. Hope I can avoid them lol

Hi I have 9 great ideas need investors please help me to bring it live

I don't think this was a great a content. Like one of the hosts said on the video, they are not the target demo for these companies. So they generally commented on the design aspect of the website, and some are valid, but they simply don't get what the companies are going for.
