I love seeing the 'YC Graveyard' project. It’s a great reminder of the incredible ideas and effort behind each startup, even if things didn’t pan out. We’ve been working on giving some of these inactive startups a second chance by acquiring them and exploring ways to repurpose or revive their tech.

If anyone’s been involved with an inactive YC project and wants to chat about what’s possible, I’d love to connect.



I’d love to read more about this.

Looking through the list, my reaction to some was “of course that OpenAI wrapper failed” but others sounded compelling. It’s logical that some of those failed companies have a viable product but failed for other reasons. Maybe combining the IP of similar companies could breed a winner. It’s an interesting concept and I’m curious if it works.


Sometimes the right idea is tried at the wrong time. It is a decent idea to at least keep an eye on these.
