If you spell out the errors you saw, perhaps...


Errors I noticed from the batch we did (W2007):

SocialMoth is no longer active. Paul is involved with Square (which is doing very well).

View 3 was shuttered soon after the batch and everybody went back to school, I believe.

White Noise is defunct. I'm not sure what Sean is up to these days.

Snipshot was a non-batch YC company, I believe (like Justin.TV). Funded by YC based on an existing relationship from a previous batch, but they weren't part of a batch. Not sure that makes it inaccurate...I guess that's the best place to list them, since they were funded around the same time and demoed on the same demo day.

WriteWith is defunct. Eric wrote for VentureBeat for a while. Phillip joined Auctomatic before their acquisition. Martin did something else, but I don't remember what.

I believe everything else in W2007 is correct.


Snipshot was W06.


I thought Beau demoed something on demo day with our batch...but I may be misremembering.


You're right, he did. We let him present again at your batch's dday. We do that occasionally with startups that have special circumstances.


Crocodoc is listed as having $0 in funding, but they took in money last July. I'm not sure the dollar amount.




Consider applying for YC's Fall 2026 batch! Applications are open till July 27.
