Hi, I’m Garry Tan, former Y Combinator partner, Forbes Midas List top venture capitalist and cofounder at Initialized Capital. We were earliest investors in billion dollar startups like Coinbase and Instacart. I’m doing my own run-and-gun one man YouTube channel with no staff or crew — we're going for raw and unfiltered and high signal in order to help you with your building your world-changing startup.
In this episode I want to talk about what advice I always give to people writing their YC applications. Watch to the end you'll find a link to submit your YC app to me for comments and review. I can guarantee I'll read the first 100 responses from YouTube, but honestly I'll try my best overall just because I really want to help.
Y Combinator changed my life and I hope it changes yours.
