(i.e., How did the founders meet? How did you come up with the idea? How did you decide to be a founder?)", "answer": "Josh, Eddie, and I actually met completely by chance. I moved to the US for the Electrical Engineering PhD program at Stanford and just a couple of months in, I got paired up together with Josh through Stanford’s alumni mentorship program. Josh and Eddie went to Stanford EE together a few years earlier, but got reconnected after randomly when Eddie made a wild decision to run a half-marathon – with zero training – just to win a bet (!). Josh, Eddie and I bonded over our experiences growing up around small businesses, and starting past startups on our own. My dad has owned a small clothing store in Haifa for over 30 years now and I grew up helping in the store after school every day, and experiencing the small business ups and downs around the family dinner table every evening. Eddie had a similar experience with his family’s medical practice in Southern California. Finally, Josh, Eddie and I had started our own startups previously (none as successful as Gusto), and realized that our passion is solving real problems for real people and having a long-term positive impact through technology.We loved the idea of helping small businesses – the underdogs – thrive and succeed, and hated the fact that only “big enterprise” companies use technology internally for their advantage. It wasn’t fair and we wanted to fix it. What sparked the original idea behind Gusto was Eddie growing up and seeing his mom manage payroll for their medical practice. She had been doing every payroll by hand for over two decades. It was time-consuming, tough, and error-prone, with the practice paying as much as $200,000 in tax penalties over the years, up until we launched Gusto. One of the most rewarding parts of our journey was seeing her finally running payroll without having to physically be in the office – freeing her up to go on vacation while still being able to run payroll if she needed to. We realized that if we do a great job with payroll, we’ll have the most accurate system of record for our customers’ employees, which then will enable us to solve many more important problems like onboarding, time tracking, benefits, compliance, HR, and more. We’ve since kept on this vision and have built Gusto’s People Platform which helps over 300,000 businesses across the country start and grow their teams while building a great place to work – from the moment they’re hired, until their last day. We still feel like we’re in the super early stages of the company as our vision is much broader – to create a world where work creates a better life." }, { "question": "How did you decide to apply to Y Combinator? What was your experience applying, going through the batch, and fundraising at demo day?", "answer": "We first decided to apply to YC based on Eddie’s recommendation. He had had a great experience with YC as part of a previous startup he founded, Picwing. We knew that the YC association could help us hire strong engineers, have a supportive community of founders we get inspired by, and gain early momentum. Being part of a YC batch was a high intensity experience. We lived together and worked 24/7 to build a Minimal Loveable Product and earn the trust of some early customers, all before Demo Day. Demo Day is a fantastic opportunity to meet hundreds of serious investors interested in funding companies. It’s up to you to give them a reason to fund you – but if you take advantage of that moment, it can really be a gamechanger for your startup.Overall, YC was a big part of Gusto’s early growth. It has a strong community of technical leaders and operators, so it helped us hire engineers faster and grow more quickly during Gusto’s early days. But not only is YC a great way to attract top talent – it also connects you to a community of similar-minded founders and helps you build long-term, lasting friendships. " } ], "url": "https://www.ycombinator.com/companies/gusto", "api": "https://devasheeshg.github.io/yc-api/batches/winter-2012/gusto.json", "year_founded": 2011, "city": "San Francisco", "country": "US", "linkedin_url": "https://www.linkedin.com/company/gustohq/", "x_url": "https://twitter.com/GustoHQ", "fb_url": "https://www.facebook.com/GustoHQ/", "cb_url": "https://www.crunchbase.com/organization/gusto", "github_url": "https://github.com/Gusto", "logo_url": "https://bookface-images.s3.amazonaws.com/small_logos/6ce7845c2e268525f5f04915212ac0a106fb7e3d.png", "app_video_url": null, "dday_video_url": null, "company_photos": [ "https://bookface-images.s3.us-west-2.amazonaws.com/attachments/17702f753046e23197ac3c92291b35126b8cf5e3.png" ], "primary_partner": null, "founders": [ { "user_id": 30116, "full_name": "Josh Reeves", "title": "Founder/CEO", "founder_bio": "We're on a multi-decade mission at Gusto to create a world where work empowers a better life.

Today, we're announcing our new AI vision, and I'm excited to share it with the Launch YC community.\n\n\n\n**The problem**\n\nOneSignal first went through YC as a mobile gaming company called Hiptic Games.\n\nAfter pivoting away from mobile games, we used our experience to uncover an opportunity to truly \"Make something people want,\" and began working toward a mission to Democratize Customer Engagement for B2C companies.\n\nFor years, most B2C marketing automation products have had lengthy implementation processes, dated interfaces, and a learning curve steep enough that many teams hire a full-time expert. Many of them were also built in a world where email was the dominant channel, and have zero or weak support campaigns that span across Email, Mobile Push, SMS/RCS, and other channels.\n\nIn contrast, we made OneSignal incredibly easy to use from the start: customers can get going for free with an intuitive product experience, a powerful suite of tools for omni-channel messaging, and the performance to support some of the largest brands in the world. Today, OneSignal sends billions of daily messages for hundreds of thousands of active apps.\n\nBut no matter how easy and powerful we made the product, marketers still needed to bring a lot of their own time and expertise to get the best results from their campaigns.\n\n**The solution**\n\nToday, I'm excited to announce our vision and the products that will make lifecycle marketing autonomous. Our mission is still to Democratize Customer Engagement, but with AI we can achieve it in ways that were never possible before. This AI vision enables us to empower under-resourced marketing teams with the time and expertise that has seemed always out of reach.\n\nWe've broken this mission into phases, which we think of as an autonomy ladder. Most marketers don't want to hand the keys to an autonomous system on day one, so we'll roll out features that build the systems and trust needed at each step.\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=105807&key=user_uploads/5571/09a43a18-3ca8-4268-bd70-ab1798220546)\n\n**Level 0 — Manual.** The dashboard. A marketer drives every click, and the team scales by hiring. This is where the entire category has lived.\n\n**Level 1 — Assistance.** AI drafts copy, suggests audiences, and explains your analytics in plain language. You review and ship. This is live today.\n\n**Level 2 — Expert Assist.** AI becomes proactive. It recommends campaigns to fill lifecycle gaps, flags mistakes, and checks your work. Your input is still required.\n\n**Level 3 — Agentic Autopilot.** You delegate bounded work, and AI does it within the scope and rules you've defined. You approve work in batches.\n\n**Level 4 — Full Operator.** You set the goals and the guardrails. AI plans, sends, tests, and improves campaigns against them, reaching out only when it needs you.\n\n**What we're launching today**\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=105807&key=user_uploads/5571/da0aff66-9335-4ac3-87bf-d61aaa95b014)\n\n**OneSignal AI** — An in-product agent that can do everything a person can: generate message copy, design emails, analyze message performance, and recommend next steps to maximize user engagement. Best of all, it can create and analyze complex multi-step Journeys, saving hours of work.\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=105807&key=user_uploads/5571/f96522b2-51f9-404c-83fe-5b8bcbf4618a)\n\n**Brand Kit** — Define your audience, voice and tone, industry, and visual assets on a centralized configuration page or pull them automatically from your website. Set guardrails for language to avoid. OneSignal AI uses your Brand Kit when generating copy, email designs, and in-app messages.\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=105807&key=user_uploads/5571/b4c791bc-66cd-4849-afbf-d6921338d492)\n\n**OneSignal MCP** — Brings OneSignal's capabilities to the AI tools and agents you already use. The MCP is available now on the ChatGPT and Cursor marketplaces, coming soon to the Claude marketplace, and available through Smithery for any other AI client. Together, the MCP and the OneSignal API make it possible to use the platform in a fully headless way.\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=105807&key=user_uploads/5571/16f8ec08-92f4-4612-b342-555017d5082b)\n\nSoon, we'll also release a OneSignal Slack Agent, bringing the capabilities of OneSignal AI and the OneSignal MCP to where your team already spends its time. And we'll be rolling out an API to create, edit, and analyze Journeys, so your team can set up complex campaigns without ever logging into the OneSignal dashboard.\n\n**Try it today**\n\nAll of these features are available on OneSignal's free plan. Small companies can send unlimited push notifications and up to 10,000 emails per month for free. Paid plans start at $19/mo plus affordable usage-based pricing.

Just to be competitive on the Internet, you need your images to be sized perfectly to every device, served in one of any of a half dozen web formats, optimized to the absolute best perceptual quality while maintaining pinpoint performance, and distributed to wherever your users are, anywhere in the world. And that is just the baseline. Next-level imaging concerns like copyright, licensing, accessibility, moderation, illegal or explicit content, \"fake news\", and more, can threaten your business at any moment if not handled properly. Get any of these things wrong and you are shedding revenue, ceding ground to competitors, and potentially exposing your business to extreme liability.\r\n\r\nBy working with imgix's powerful APIs, SDKs, user interfaces, and integrations, you can rest assured that any demands on your images and videos will always be met, now and into the future, without you having to invest in building it yourself or patching together a mishmash of open source and third-party technologies.

With my computer science background and his design acumen, we began programming iphone apps and making a living off of that for some time. After a series of iphone apps and businesses, we learned that we worked really well together and both had the passion and resilience to eventually build a successful business.Prior to GOAT, we had launched a few projects one of them being a social dining app called Grubwithus. The idea behind the app was to break social norms and bring people together through food at a restaurant. The app gained a good amount of attention at first, but there were a lot of friction points with coordinating people, dates, food and restaurants, and we eventually realized it was a hard business to scale and decided to shut it down.In 2014 Daishin, a huge sneakerhead since he was a kid, unwittingly bought a fake pair of Jordans off of another platform. The process was difficult - Daishin had to look through many photos of the same shoes, then look to see how trustworthy a seller was, how much the price would be with shipping and when he would receive them by.

The homepage also features a stream of the latest comments to come in from other users, as well as a profile for each restaurant in the system that includes all of its votes and comments.

With GraffitiGeo, you earn points for every action you take, be it voting on a restaurant or leaving a brief comment. Once you've reached a certain point threshold, you can use those points to start a \"mob\", which you can invite your friends to join. Mobs allow friends to pool their points, which can then be used to acquire territory, which corresponds to actual city blocks.

JustSpotted, like Scoopler, is a data-aggregator, yet JustSpotted collects from Twitter, Facebook, and Foursquare -- alongside their own data they’ll be collecting from users who actual spot celebrities in the wild. All the information we aggregate is publicly available and you can even do a search on Twitter yourself and find sightings of celebrities. We're just the first people to organize it on a map and in such a way that it's easy to consume and ENJOY.”\n\nJustSpotted is about connecting with celebs. All the sightings on our website are naturally occurring events where an everyday person bumps into a celebrity as a chance occurrence.

In the new age of social media, the first thing you do is share it on Facebook or Twitter.

There should not be any distractions caused by poorly designed websites, unreliable data, or unwieldy spreadsheets of haphazard electronic component information. You should be able to compare components, find important technical information, and easily grasp the spectrum of parts that will be a match for your design.\r\n\r\nThis is what Octopart strives for.\r\n\r\nFinding electronic component information should not be holding engineers back from bringing ideas to life quickly and efficiently. We believe that pricing, availability, technical specifications, and reference designs should be transparent, fast to find, and easy to understand.

Through the Coin developer program, wearables makers now have a turnkey solution for integrating secure payments into their devices (e.g. fitness trackers, smartwatches, jewelry). Follow the company on Twitter @coin or learn more about the Coin developer program at http://developer.onlycoin.com.\n\nCoin 2.0 smart payment device\nCoin 2.0 is a secure smart device that has the form factor of a credit card, but it holds your cards in one - including your credit, debit, gift and loyalty cards. Coin 2.0 lets you swipe or tap your cards at millions of merchants across the USA. Coin 2.0 has 80%+ compatibility, partly because we use cutting-edge technology that has not yet been integrated into all point-of-sale systems. We encourage customers to carry a “backup card” given the wide variety of sales registers in the USA. While Coin 2.0 shares the same form factor as a credit card, it features enhancements such as an electronic display and a single button to allow for simple switching between different cards. With over-the-air updates, Coin 2.0 adapts to evolving payment technology, offering future-ready ubiquity in a small and powerful package. Coin's security features also keep your information safe. Auto-unlock means that only you can use your Coin 2.0 while Last Known Location helps you find your Coin 2.0 in case of loss or theft. Coin 2.0 is designed for use in the USA.

Our journey began with building remote patient monitoring systems for medical clinics.

We were really impressed by Michael's stories about the Y Combinator community and decided to apply to the program. The process was fairly vigorous and competitive, but our persistence paid off and we were accepted into the Y Combinator '14 batch. The experience itself was incredibly intense, as we were one of a few foreign, let alone hardware companies in our batch which made us work even harder to adapt to the different business mentality in Silicon Valley. Nonetheless, we successfully completed the program and moved on to fundraising on demo day. We were able to raise a significant portion of our seed round on the spot and immediately after demo day. Despite these challenges, we remained committed to our goals and were able to overcome the obstacles in our path, which made the experience a memorable and incredible one." }, { "question": "How have you kept in touch with the YC community and continued to use YC resources & programs since the batch ended?", "answer": "We stay connected with the Y Combinator community and maintain close relationships with our batchmates, other founders, and select teams from Europe.

What were the big inflection points?", "answer": "Bellabeat started as a company focused on addressing the lack of attention given to women's wellness in the market with the mission to understand and improve women's health & wellness from a holistic standpoint. Over the years, we have evolved to become a leading solution for women's health and wellness. In 2014, we were a part of the top cohort at Y Combinator and raised a substantial seed round. This was followed by the launch of our flagship product— Leaf Nature, the first wellness tracker designed for women, the following year. In 2019, we introduced a membership program offering personalized health and wellness guidance, further solidifying our position in the market. We continued innovating and in 2021, we launched Ivy, a new wearable device that provides personalized health guidance based on a woman's menstrual cycle and biometric data. Throughout our journey, we made a significant impact, launching various Leaf editions, Time smartwatch, as well as Spring- a smart bottle. We’re proud that our products are not only helping women reach their full potential, but also accompanying them during the most important parts of their lives. " }, { "question": "What is the core problem you are solving? Why is this a big problem? What made you decide to work on it?", "answer": "Realizing the lack of attention given to women's wellness in the market, we founded Bellabeat with the mission to understand and improve women's health by utilizing the cycle as a focal point of women’s health and wellness. We noticed that women, in pursuit of knowledge about their health & well-being, only relied on information gathered through reading online, joining forums, or visiting their physicians. While these sources are great to educate women, they’re missing a key point that women need in order to understand their bodies on a daily—biofeedback.When creating Ivy and combing it with our personalized programs and cycle input, we wanted to give women the tools they need to understand their bodies every day, receive actionable advice, and see the change for themselves. By delivering timely and appropriate guidance adjusted to the different stages of the menstrual cycle, every individual user’s unique bio-responses, and lifestyle tracked through sensor technology, we’re introducing women to a way of life that is in sync with their natural hormonal rhythm. A way that leads to a healthier lifestyle and a healthier future where women start working with their bodies instead of against them to achieve their wellness goals. " }, { "question": "What is your long-term vision? If you truly succeed, what will be different about the world?", "answer": "Our long-term vision is to revolutionize the understanding of women's cycle and wellness to empower them to live their full potential. By providing personalized guidance through our subscription option, we aim to bring a new perspective to women's health and wellness that goes beyond traditional approaches. Our goal is to become the leading femtech company in the world and help women lead healthier, better, and more equitable lives." } ], "url": "https://www.ycombinator.com/companies/bellabeat", "api": "https://devasheeshg.github.io/yc-api/batches/winter-2014/bellabeat.json", "year_founded": 2014, "city": "San Francisco", "country": "US", "linkedin_url": "https://www.linkedin.com/company/bellabeatinc", "x_url": "https://twitter.com/GetBellaBeat", "fb_url": "https://web.facebook.com/bellabeat/", "cb_url": "https://www.crunchbase.com/organization/bellabeat", "github_url": null, "logo_url": "https://bookface-images.s3.amazonaws.com/small_logos/ed160215b7a30dc30384bfcf6e726bac65688aff.png", "app_video_url": null, "dday_video_url": null, "company_photos": [], "primary_partner": null, "founders": [ { "user_id": 38307, "full_name": "Urska Srsen", "title": "Founder/CCO", "founder_bio": "Urska Srsen is the co­founder and CCO of Bellabeat Inc.

Interact directly with your chosen entrepreneur via chat, photos and videos. Then watch your impact multiply as the entrepreneur pays your donation forward by funding other entrepreneurs in need.\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=71010&key=user_uploads/36608/a2a1c289-4c12-44b5-9559-68e075dd0a1d)\n\n### The problem: Developing country businesses lack capital\n\nSmall businesses provide 80% of employment in Africa and other emerging markets - but they lack access to the capital they need to grow and provide more jobs. Too small to be profitable for banks and too large to benefit from consumer loan apps, these businesses are called the “missing middle” because they fall between the tiers served by existing financial infrastructure.\n\nFor example, Daniel started a cybercafe in a low-income neighborhood in Ghana. His facility is the only source of internet access in the community, but it has only two computers and people must wait for hours to use them. Daniel earns barely enough to support his family, and there isn’t enough left over to invest in new machines.\n\n### The solution: Connecting entrepreneurs to investment capital\n\nA friend invites Daniel to use Zidisha, and he signs up and posts his story and photos on the platform. His initial project of $50 is funded by a combination of Zidisha entrepreneurs and philanthropic backers who visit the website. He uses the $50 to buy a printer and add printing services to his cybercafe. Within a couple of months, the printer has paid for itself. Daniel “pays it forward” by funding $50 worth of projects for other fundraising entrepreneurs on the platform.\n\nIn a subsequent project, Daniel raises $300 and uses it to acquire two more second-hand computers. This doubles the capacity of his cybercafe and Daniel’s earnings. Daniel pays the $300 forward to other Zidisha entrepreneurs while continuing to benefit from the increased cash flow. The increased earnings allow Daniel to enroll his daughter in high school.\n\nEventually, Daniel raises $1000 to open a second cybercafe in a nearby neighborhood. He hires two employees to help him manage the second cybercafe.\n\n### How it works\n\nEntrepreneurs in developing countries create project pages where they share their story, photos, and descriptions of their investment opportunity. Projects are funded by backers from all over the world.\n\nInstead of repaying the projects as loans, entrepreneurs “pay it forward” by in turn funding other entrepreneurs on the platform.\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=71010&key=user_uploads/36608/bd8803ee-5359-4009-8d63-e66a4c4fe466)\n\nEntrepreneurs post project updates and interact directly with their backers through the project discussion tab.\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=71010&key=user_uploads/36608/e1786735-029d-492b-b38c-6cafcec477d9)\n\nBackers can view which projects were funded by their entrepreneurs and watch their impact grow over time as the funds continue to be recycled.\n\n### How you can help\n\n* Connect us with impact investors who are interested in creating new opportunities in developing countries.

Then they wait to get a \"backpack request\" and ask their price. Finally, they confirm the deal, buy the items, deliver them and earn money. Shoppers on the other hand, search items from their favorite websites and fill out the item description. Then they give their location and find a traveler coming to their city. Finally they \"request backpack\" and confirm the deal. Within days they can get the product and save money. \n\nbackpack is founded with a vision to provide every citizen of the world with a choice; the choice of buying organic, authentic, and cost effective products with minimum friction.\nWhether the product is state-of-the-art consumer electronics, exotic pashmina from the south-east, or even medication that are rare in some parts of the world and not so rare in others - we promise ourselves to get those products to your doorsteps.

As the on-demand economy was exploding, the background check process was stuck in time—tedious and slow. It was slowing down the hiring process on both sides, especially among companies with a fast moving, flexible workforce like the gig economy.At heart, they are engineers. They see a problem, and they want to fix it. They knew they could streamline the background check process to put people to work quickly without sacrificing accuracy. This led to the creation of Checkr, an API-first technology platform that combines the best in human expertise and AI to simplify disjointed, labor-intensive hiring processes. Our mission really solidified over their first interactions with job applicants. They heard firsthand the hardships of finding a job—and putting food on the table. They saw applicants get rejected because of something in the past, which in no way impacted their ability to do the jobs they were applying for today. They saw an opportunity to be a positive force in the job market – to focus on eliminating bias and championing a fairer future." }, { "question": "How did you decide to apply to Y Combinator?

One memorable experience was what Daniel likes to call 'speed dating' with investors during a demo day held at the Computer History Museum. Before this, Daniel's understanding of the venture capital landscape was somewhat limited.

Through a secure, HIPAA-compliant platform, our service connects users with a carefully curated team of wellness professionals. By conducting online consultations via video chat, written journals, and even texting sessions, we have transformed traditional therapy into an experience that is low-cost, convenient, and completely confidential.\n\nEveryone can benefit from an objective perspective during difficult times, but the current model for supportive services is broken due to insurance gridlock, a clunky referral system, long wait times and unsustainable costs. Our web-based approach offers valuable guidance through accessible and anonymous means. Users log in to secure accounts and speak with licensed professionals on a variety of topics—relationship conflict, job stress, etc.—from anywhere at any time. With our proprietary technology, we have removed every barrier to entry and created an outlet for millions who wouldn’t have sought emotional health services otherwise, reducing stress for an increasingly stressed-out generation. This is the future of mental health. \n\nThe shift in moving counseling services online is inevitable and our product is already in demand: After a successful pilot with Pretty Padded Room, an online therapy website specifically targeted towards millennial women, we are excited to relaunch as In Your Corner, an aspirational brand that provides the very best in counseling, coaching, and calm. In Your Corner improves on our original offering by being more gender-inclusive and convenient. In addition to developing a mobile app to provide one-tap, on-demand support in real time, users also have access not only to licensed mental health counselors, but also coaches in personal and professional development as well as instructors of meditation and breath work.", "one_liner": "We've transformed traditional therapy into an experience that is…", "team_size": 2, "industry": "Healthcare", "subindustry": "Healthcare -> Healthcare Services", "launched_at": 1398907936, "tags": [ "Mental Health Tech", "Telehealth", "Digital Health" ], "tags_highlighted": [], "top_company": false, "isHiring": false, "nonprofit": false, "batch": "Summer 2014", "status": "Inactive", "industries": [ "Healthcare", "Healthcare Services" ], "regions": [ "United States of America", "America / Canada" ], "stage": "Early", "app_video_public": false, "demo_day_video_public": false, "app_answers": null, "question_answers": null, "url": "https://www.ycombinator.com/companies/in-your-corner", "api": "https://devasheeshg.github.io/yc-api/batches/summer-2014/in-your-corner.json", "year_founded": null, "city": "New York City", "country": "US", "linkedin_url": null, "x_url": null, "fb_url": null, "cb_url": "https://www.crunchbase.com/organization/pretty-padded-room", "github_url": null, "logo_url": null, "app_video_url": null, "dday_video_url": null, "company_photos": [], "primary_partner": null, "founders": [ { "user_id": 40644, "full_name": "Bea Arthur", "title": "Founder/CEO", "founder_bio": "Bea Arthur, LMHC is a Columbia University-trained psychotherapist, award-winning entrepreneur, TEDx speaker, and pioneer in psychology technology.

Restaurants leveraging the Zoomer platform are able to provide a better & more consistent delivery experience for their customer, which ultimately leads to a stronger bottom line. Independent drivers on the Zoomer platform have the ability to create their own schedule & increase their own efficiency, resulting in more earnings. And of course, customers receive their orders dramatically faster than the status quo.\n\nThis is your opportunity to get in on the ground-floor.

It ingests, processes, and routes log data to fuel enterprise-level application development and delivery, security, and compliance use cases.\r\n\r\nMezmo was brought to life by three-time co-founders Chris Nguyen and Lee Liu and included in the Winter 2015 batch of Y Combinator. In 2018 the company partnered with tech giant, IBM, to become the sole logging provider for IBM Cloud.\r\n\r\nMezmo is on a mission to empower people who build solutions that shape the world. We’re doing this by delivering a platform that enables enterprises to get more value from their observability data in real time, regardless of source, destination, use case, or scale. We’re not the only ones working on this problem but we have a few things the others don’t.\r\n\r\nWe’re cloud-native and know how to make the most of modern technology like Kubernetes.\r\nWe have scaled a solution from zero to petabyte scale in a short amount of time, while supporting thousands of active users across multiple environments.\r\nWe are hungry for change and are surrounded by enterprises telling us they’re hungry, too.\r\nWe have a kick-ass group of people who are thinking about the problem analytically and are excited to change the observability world for the better.\r\nMezmo has helped some of the world’s most innovative companies transform how they manage their systems and applications. Still, we know that we can help them get more value from their observability data by providing more flexibility and control over how they use it.

 \r\n\r\neBrandValue has become a de facto forecaster of sales in many industries by accurately predicting and reporting the real-time sales, ROI, brand performance and market share-impact of brands in comparison to all of their competitors. These predictions are confirmed by Nielsen’s ScanTrack, which once again emphasises the catalytic impact of next-stage intelligent social media analysis to sales strategy.
 \r\n\r\neBrandValue enables brands to measure the efficacy and ROI of their events and campaigns, and to track and analyse influencers within their industry. It also provides Meme-Based Netnographic Segmentation which reveals the dimensions that define a brand and encapsulate the nature of social media postings in the sector, thus allowing brands to track their positioning vis-à-vis competition in real-time.
 \r\n\r\neBrandValue recently graduated from Y Combinator’s Winter’15 batch, and received press coverage at VentureBeat. Additionally, eBrandValue was also showcased as part of the Start Up Academy during Cannes Lions as one of the ten globally selected startups that are currently disrupting the marketing/agency business.

And That was democratizing online payments for Indian businesses, particularly the underserved market, Startups and SMEs. Over the last 9 years, Razorpay has evolved from a single-product company to a multi-product company, from an online payment gateway to India’s only full-stack financial solutions company, offering payments and banking solutions to businesses. Razorpay today is transforming age-old complexities and changing every known paradigm of money movement for disruptive businesses.\r\n\r\nOver the last couple of years, Razorpay’s growth has evolved to be an index of India’s digital economy. From a kirana shop in Kashmir collecting payments on our POS device to a textile exporter in Kanyakumari accepting dollars through our International Payments product, Razorpay has revolutionised how businesses have traditionally transacted and interacted with money. \r\n\r\nRazorpay became the first and only Indian fintech to build a full-stack international Payment Gateway ‘Curlec by Razorpay’ and evolved into a comprehensive provider of payment solutions, leveraging the synergy between cutting-edge technological capabilities and a profound understanding of the local payment ecosystem. The introduction of the new Curlec Payment Gateway aims to cater to a wide spectrum of businesses, expanding its reach to over 5,000 establishments. \r\n\r\nBe it for international expansion or solving for Indian businesses, for Razorpay, the customer has always been at the core of all disruption, from addressing evolving needs to delivering new solutions. This hyperfocus helped bring Razorpay’s several industry-first innovations into the market since 2014. Razorpay became the first to launch a completely digital on-boarding process for startups, first to launch support for UPI, first to launch support for Bharath QR, first to introduce recurring payments for businesses through Razorpay Route, automating payment receipts and later automate payouts and making the entire process seamless and optimized and many more were introduced aling the way. Other firsts include: - First to launch India’s Multi-Network Tokenisation solution, TokenHQ - Razorpay became India’s first payment gateway to support credit cards on UPI - Razorpay also became India’s largest omnichannel payment gateway for businesses post acquiring Ezetap which is India’s leading offline POS company that was founded with the aim to simplify the in-person offline payments experience.\r\n\r\nOver the years, Razorpay’s valuation has jumped from $1 billion to $7.5 billion and has added a host of marquee investors to its captable. Razorpay is also the second Indian company to be a part of Silicon Valley’s largest tech accelerator, Y Combinator. Marquee investors such as Lone Pine Capital, Alkeon Capital, TCV, GIC, Tiger Global, Sequoia Capital India, Ribbit Capital, Matrix Partners, Salesforce Ventures, Y Combinator, and MasterCard have invested a total of $741.5 Mn through Series A, B, C, D, E and F funding. The last financing round of Series F led the company’s valuation to $7.5 Billion signaling one of the fastest increases in valuation for an Indian Unicorn. \r\n\r\nRazorpay has also made acquisitions with like-minded companies over the last 9 years. In total, till date, Razorpay has made eight acquisitions, Billme in 2023 - A Digital invoice and customer Engagement, Ezetap in 2022 - India’s leading offline POS company, PoshVine in 2022 - India’s leading loyalty and reward management platform, IZealiant in 2022 - A mobile-first, API-enabled, and cloud-ready payment solution and made its first international foray in South-East Asia by announcing its acquisition of Curlec in 2022 - A recurring payments platform. TeraFin Labs in 2021 - the AI-based SaaS platform that facilitates digital financing solutions, Opfin (Now RazorpayX Payroll) in 2019 - The payroll management solution and Thirdwatch in 2019, the first acquisition - The AI-powered fraud detection platform.\r\n\r\nAll these efforts are being done in collaboration with banks, regulators, and stakeholders so that India can build a better place for small and big businesses. Today, Razorpay powers online payments for 76 Of 100 startup unicorns and millions of businesses in India. The core premise of what Razorpay was founded in 2014 and what it is today hasn’t changed. It is to make money movement simpler and easier, whether it is for businesses to receive money, send money, or manage money. \r\n\r\n", "one_liner": "India's only full-stack financial solutions company for businesses.", "team_size": 2700, "industry": "Fintech", "subindustry": "Fintech -> Payments", "launched_at": 1416309883, "tags": [ "Banking as a Service", "Fintech", "Payments", "India" ], "tags_highlighted": [], "top_company": true, "isHiring": true, "nonprofit": false, "batch": "Winter 2015", "status": "Active", "industries": [ "Fintech", "Payments" ], "regions": [ "India", "South Asia", "Remote", "Partly Remote" ], "stage": "Growth", "app_video_public": false, "demo_day_video_public": false, "app_answers": null, "question_answers": [ { "question": "How did your company get started? (i.e., How did the founders meet? How did you come up with the idea? How did you decide to be a founder?)", "answer": "(Attributed to Harshil Mathur, CEO & CoFounder of Razorpay)I met Shashank during our time at IIT Roorkee, and our collaboration began there. We worked on numerous projects together, fueled by our shared passion for coding. In fact, many of the codes we wrote during our college days are still the backbone of Razorpay's operations today. Our bond extended beyond academics; we were instrumental in founding SDS Labs, the software development section of our alma mater. After graduation, our paths diverged geographically, with Shashank moving to the USA to join Microsoft, while I ventured to the Middle East to work with Schlumberger. Despite the distance, our friendship remained strong, and we continued to collaborate on various side projects.One pivotal moment came in 2014 when we embarked on a crowdsourcing platform project to collect online donations for a cause. However, we encountered significant hurdles with existing payment gateway systems. This experience opened our eyes to the challenges faced by Indian businesses, particularly Startups and small businesses, in accepting payments online.Determined to address this gap, we decided to establish Razorpay, driven by a mission to democratize payments for startups and SMEs. Armed with research and fueled by our passion for solving real-world problems, we set out to create a platform that offers simple, affordable, and secure payment solutions.For us, perseverance has been a way of life. We are relentless in our pursuit of identifying and solving the financial challenges faced by small businesses. Whether it's rain or shine, we push through obstacles until we find viable solutions. This resilience has been the cornerstone of Razorpay's growth, propelling us from 10,000 partner businesses in 2017 to over 5 million today." }, { "question": "How did you decide to apply to Y Combinator? What was your experience applying, going through the batch, and fundraising at demo day?", "answer": "(Attributed to Harshil Mathur, CEO & CoFounder of Razorpay)Long before we applied to YC, Shashank and I had been fans. Hacker News was our go-to source for information on building startups, and a few months after we started working on Razorpay, we saw an announcement on Hacker News about the YC application period opening up.At that point, Razorpay hadn't launched and we weren't remotely confident about getting in. The YC application process is pretty thorough; there are tough questions that force you to be crystal clear about who you are as a company. Things like how will you differentiate yourself from the competition; how will you acquire market share; how big is your market, and how big will you be in a few years from now? All of those are important questions to discuss internally, and so at a minimum, we thought applying would help us zero in on succinct, precise answers to give both of us clarity, even if we didn't get in.But thankfully our efforts paid off, and we did make the cut. When Shashank Kumar and I found out in late 2014 we'd been accepted into Y Combinator, we figured we'd need to split our time between running Razorpay in Bangalore and joining our fellow founders in Silicon Valley. It was only a few months after we had launched Razorpay and we were afraid of abandoning our customers, even for a bit, just as we were getting off the ground. Ignoring that temptation and spending the full three months of YC in Mountain View was one of the best decisions we ever made.It was a good call to stay in US and not fly back and forth to India, because if we had, we'd have missed out on the full benefit of YC — spending valuable time with the other founders in our batch, meeting successful alumni and building relationships throughout the YC community, and getting mentored by YC partners and other investors.Now, 9 years later, we couldn't be more proud to be [YC's first Indian unicorn](https://techcrunch.com/2020/10/11/razorpay-100-million-billion-valuation-unicorn/). I can honestly say that although we had to work harder during those three months than at any other time in my life, with countless 20-hour days attending YC sessions and dinners and then working late nights supporting our customers in India, I wouldn't change a thing. That's why the best advice I can give to any Indian founder considering YC is to go all in on it the same way we did. The priceless, irreplaceable learning happens when you least expect it — during a late-night drink with another founder in your batch, maybe, or in a spur-of-the-moment meeting with a YC partner. You can't say you'll do 60% or 80% of the YC program, because you can't know where 60% or 80% of YC's advantage is. So figure out how to get 100% of the benefit of it; it'll be hard, and exhausting, definitely, but you will never regret it." }, { "question": "What is the core problem you are solving? Why is this a big problem? What made you decide to work on it?", "answer": "In 2014, after discovering the dismal state of online payments in India Harshil and Shashank founded Razorpay, **India’s first payment gateway built for Startups** a platform for a simple, affordable, and secure way for businesses to accept payments online. Progressing in the journey that started with payment acceptance, the company also witnessed a progressive acceptance and adoption of digital innovations. But what was surprising was while the big payment players in the market were catering to large businesses, smaller businesses needed immediate attention. In India, **MSMEs are the second largest employment-generating sector after agriculture and contribute around 31% to the nation’s GDP**. One of the major challenges for SMEs & Startups was the lack of technology infrastructure, especially for B2B payment technologies. There was a need for a comprehensive converged payment and banking solution that can help manage the entire money movement (from acceptance to disbursals) within an organisation. This particular thought gave birth to the launch of **Razorpay’s neo-banking platform, RazorpayX, and lending platform Razorpay Capital.** The company now offers a single platform for businesses to manage the entire money flow within an organization. Eight years to now, **Razorpay evolved from being a payment gateway to India’s first full-stack financial solutions company providing intelligent new-age payment and business banking solutions** to help Indian businesses address the entire length and breadth of their payment & banking journey. The company believes that for the next phase of growth in the fintech industry, payment players need to **evolve beyond offering solutions for payment acceptance to managing the entire money flow (from acceptance to disbursements and everything in between). Hence, it is of supreme importance to recognize a market (SMEs & Startups)**, identify challenges, and provide a holistic solution, at scale." }, { "question": "What is your long-term vision? If you truly succeed, what will be different about the world?", "answer": "**Razorpay is committed to building the central nervous system of digital India.** The company aims to change how payments and banking are done for small businesses in India and wants to create a benchmark for the entire world to follow. Razorpay today is India’s leading and first full-stack financial solutions company that offers both payments and banking solutions for businesses on a single platform.  The founding team always wanted to build a platform like this because of the single goal **- to help businesses spend less time managing compliance and operations and more time creating new products, pursuing new ideas, and thinking about how to scale. The company’s vision continues to produce new idea and innovation that benefits millions of businesses even today.** Overall, the company wants to help make India economically more inclusive and is making strides toward that goal. Razorpay believes It’s an exciting time of change and is creating history. Digitization is the lifeblood of any business. It impacts EVERYTHING a business does - from cash flow & hiring to credit, investment & expansion.

Travellers get the best price and they help local businesses avoid unnecessary fees. \r\n\r\nTravel experts, content creators and the friends you always ask for recommendations can use The Guide to showcase their favourite places to stay and things to do. When you book one of their recommendations, you’ll get a discount from the business and they receive bonus credit to say thanks.\r\n\r\nThe Tab platform gives independent tourism businesses the tools to improve their online presence, be discovered, take direct bookings — and also to take payments. Our payment platform is uniquely designed for tourism businesses, handling over 100 currencies natively, and every payment type securely and easily.\r\n\r\nAs travel returns after a difficult period, it’s time for a fresh approach. That’s why we’re building a social commerce platform for tourism — helping to spread the benefits of tourism far and wide, and helping travellers make the most of their precious time abroad. \r\n\r\nWe're headquartered in London, and backed by Y Combinator (the investors behind Airbnb, Dropbox and Stripe).", "one_liner": "Revolutionising the way travellers discover, plan and book a trip", "team_size": 9, "industry": "Consumer", "subindustry": "Consumer -> Travel, Leisure and Tourism", "launched_at": 1416311007, "tags": [ "Fintech", "Marketplace", "Travel" ], "tags_highlighted": [], "top_company": false, "isHiring": true, "nonprofit": false, "batch": "Winter 2015", "status": "Active", "industries": [ "Consumer", "Travel, Leisure and Tourism" ], "regions": [ "United Kingdom", "Europe", "Remote", "Partly Remote" ], "stage": "Early", "app_video_public": false, "demo_day_video_public": false, "app_answers": null, "question_answers": null, "url": "https://www.ycombinator.com/companies/tab", "api": "https://devasheeshg.github.io/yc-api/batches/winter-2015/tab.json", "year_founded": 2015, "city": "London", "country": "GB", "linkedin_url": "https://www.linkedin.com/company/9397300/", "x_url": "https://twitter.com/Tab_HQ", "fb_url": null, "cb_url": "https://www.crunchbase.com/organization/tab-5", "github_url": null, "logo_url": "https://bookface-images.s3.amazonaws.com/small_logos/e8f02178e3ddf46bafbfb385e35e6ddbd748c98d.png", "app_video_url": null, "dday_video_url": null, "company_photos": [], "primary_partner": null, "founders": [ { "user_id": 5148, "full_name": "Mark Datta", "title": "Founder/CEO", "founder_bio": "Mark worked in the finance industry, and at travel and fintech startups before founding Tab.

How did you decide to be a founder?)", "answer": "Back in the early 2010s, Mukul was hard at work helping Toyota determine how computers could use cameras to interpret and interact with the world. But Mukul had a problem - every day, he would go to get his lunch, and every day he’d spend most of that time (30-40 minutes) waiting in line in his corporate cafeteria. He decided to take a closer look at the issue and decided that computer vision could be the answer. After some initial testing, Mukul felt the idea was a big opportunity and flew to California to pitch his idea.There he reconnected with Abhinai, who was his classmate in the same dorm at IIT Delhi. He created an early demo that was so impressive that it convinced Abhinai to join him.Having worked in large companies and created some enormously successful projects, we were disheartened by the fact that when a project became successful, several people came in at the final stages to take credit. We decided to be founders and create a company that valued people’s contributions honestly and cut through the corporate bullshit.After successfully cold-calling head executives from some of the largest corporate cafeteria operators on the planet, we received many enthusiastic responses to our description of Mashgin’s Touchless Checkout System. He then set out to actually build it.After successfully building and demoing a Mashgin prototype to the YC team, Mashgin went from “project” to “company” over the course of the Winter 15 Batch." }, { "question": "How did you decide to apply to Y Combinator? What was your experience applying, going through the batch, and fundraising at demo day?", "answer": "We applied to YC very late, just a few days before the start of W15 batch. We were in the middle of raising a seed round and through our suboptimal interactions with investors, we realized that we needed YC guidance to help us raise a round on good terms. Our YC experience was amazing, if a bit overwhelming at times. YC partners forced us to think clearly about the next steps. At one point they had us go door to door to every business in Mountain View downtown to try and sell our product. We made our first sale that day and we’ll never forget that experience! Fundraising post YC was every bit what we imagined it to be. It made the entire process super smooth and easy." }, { "question": "What's the history of your company from getting started until the present day? What were the big inflection points?", "answer": "When we started the company in 2014, our initial goal was to improve the checkout experience in corporate dining facilities, cafeterias, and sports stadiums. We aimed to use computer vision and machine learning technology to create a much more efficient and convenient experience for customers. Entering YC and getting to demo day with a major letter of intent was a big moment for the company, giving us the experience and fundraising to make Mashgin market-ready over the following few years.However, with the outbreak of COVID-19 in 2020 and the subsequent lockdowns, we had to pivot our focus to the convenience store space as corporate offices closed and retail demand for self-checkout solutions skyrocketed.During the pandemic we were able to secure an enormous deal with Circle K, one of the largest convenience store chains in the world, for 10,000 kiosks across their global portfolio of stores. This elevated us from a burgeoning player in AI to the most market-tested solution in the world.In May 2022, we were able to announce a Series B funding round of $62.5 million with a valuation of $1.5 billion, earning us the title of “unicorn” company. The round was led by NEA, a global venture capital firm that’s invested in other successful startups like Cloudflare, Patreon Plaid, and Robinhood, with additional support from our existing investor, Matrix Partners.Today Mashgin continues to expand within the convenience, sports, and corporate dining industries while beginning to explore adjacent opportunities in spaces like ski resorts, quick service restaurants, and drug stores." }, { "question": "What is the core problem you are solving? Why is this a big problem? What made you decide to work on it?", "answer": "Online retail has gone through several iterations in the past few decades and the experience today is extremely frictionless. Physical retail on the other hand has not seen the same level of innovation and the experience hasn’t changed much since the early 90s. We want to use the latest advances in AI and Computer Vision to make physical retail as easy and frictionless as online retail.More specifically, Mashgin solves the problem of long wait times and checkout bottlenecks. Customers often experience frustration and dissatisfaction when they have to wait in long lines to check out, and retailers also face the challenge of managing and staffing checkouts. This is a big problem because lines are a waste of time for everyone involved. Over the course of a lifetime, the average person will spend years waiting in lines. And those lines aren’t just wasted time for consumers, they result in lost sales for retailers. Studies by Forrester and BlueDot have shown that retailers lose as much as 57% of their sales when customers perceive the line as long (which in a convenience store is 3 people).Besides being frustrated by our own lunch lines, we decided to work on this problem because we saw an opportunity to use computer vision and machine learning to create a more efficient and convenient shopping experience for customers across industries." }, { "question": "What is your long-term vision?
