What is your company going to make? Please describe your product and what it does or will do.
Helps people get best possible work done in collaboration. Providing better YC application support by fostering collaboration, safeguarding intellectual property, and improving success odds. Current resources lack depth, leaving users unsupported. My experience on your platform over the past year has been disappointing—no meaningful guidance, just rejection. The existing model fails to deliver value or tangible outcomes for aspiring founders.
Where do you live now, and where would the company be based after YC?
SF/MILLVALLEY
Explain your decision regarding location.
I like the woods and the houses are much more spread out.
Progress
How far along are you?
So I have pitched the idea in few groups. Few surprises soon) Ongoing engagement in "Introducing One Self" (77 views, 1 reply). "Welcome to phpBB3" remains a key resource (47 views). Admin actively engaging with new members, fostering community growth. Still Doing 5 things at a time Worked on permissions and categories. Took a little longer than expected. *2 The FORUM is live!!! We had first outage. For 24 hours. and reset everything after a fatal error. Go figure, what went wrong working on a live production server) Please login and submit ur ideas. We will be starting to fill in the blanks in what is avalable at ycombinator.com soon. Stay updated)
How long have each of you been working on this? How much of that has been full-time? Please explain.
Since my last application I was thinking. Oh and a little surprises are to follow)
What tech stack are you using, or planning to use, to build this product?
PHP, OpenApi, Https, NN
Are people using your product?
Yes
How many active users or customers do you have? How many are paying? Who is paying you the most, and how much do they pay you?
I do not intend to make a profit yet. Not sure how I will make money, just for fun.
Do you have revenue?
no
If you are applying with the same idea as a previous batch, did anything change? If you applied with a different idea, why did you pivot and what did you learn from the last idea?
No. Yes. I think this is important.
If you have already participated or committed to participate in an incubator, "accelerator" or "pre-accelerator" program, please tell us about it.
No thanks, this is my last application.
Idea
Why did you pick this idea to work on? Do you have domain expertise in this area? How do you know people need what you're making?
I got really pissed about not being accepted, and felt I wanted to do something about this. I felt there was more to me than what fits in this form, and probably to most good people you turn away.
Who are your competitors? What do you understand about your business that they don't?
YC, they are too big to give a fu..
How do or will you make money? How much could you make?
No clue.
Which category best applies to your company?
Community
If you had any other ideas you considered applying with, please list them. One may be something we've been waiting for. Often when we fund people it's to do something they list here and not in the main application.
I am also doing constructor houses and builder robots.
Equity
Have you formed ANY legal entity yet?
yes
Please list all legal entities you have and in what state or country each was formed (e.g. Delaware C Corp, Mexican SAPI, Singapore Pvt Ltd, etc.).
There are too many to fit in this box.
Please describe the breakdown of the equity ownership in percentages among the founders, employees and any other stockholders. If there are multiple founders, be sure to give the equity ownership of each founder and founder title (e.g. CEO).
100% My self
Have you taken any investment yet?
yes
List any investments your company has received. Include the name of the investor, the amount invested, the premoney valuation / valuation cap, the type of security sold (convertible notes, safes or stock), and the investment date.
I have spend millions on making mistakes, all this is my investment. I also bought a domain for 1.98$, maybe I missed something.
How much money have you raised from investors in total in US Dollars?
0
How much money does your company have in the bank now?
100
How much money do you spend per month?
20
How long is your runway? (e.g. 5 months)
passive>exp
Are you currently fundraising?
no
Curious
What convinced you to apply to Y Combinator? Did someone encourage you to apply? Have you been to any YC events?
Yes. I think it is important to be upfront about what you do.Facing you head-on.
How did you hear about Y Combinator?
Oh in the best possible ways, everyone is so impressed it makes me sick. I actually feel you are only doing a good job with those u chose, which makes most of your clients very unhappy. Think of this in your free time. I know US is all about money and stuff, but what about all the people you deny. Are they happy with their collaboration with you? Don't want to sound like a preacher so adios.)

Sure, here's a translation of the application to the top four languages spoken worldwide besides English: Mandarin Chinese, Spanish, Hindi, and Arabic. Let's start with Mandarin Chinese:

### Mandarin Chinese:
---

**创始人**

彼得·索斯伦斯基

**您正在寻找联合创始人吗?**



**公司**

公司名称:ycombinator.my

公司描述:提供YC准备支持协作和实用帮助。

公司网址:https://ycombinator.my

**未回答**

您的公司将生产什么?请描述您的产品及其功能。
帮助人们在协作中完成最佳工作。通过促进协作、保护知识产权并提高成功几率,提供更好的YC申请支持。当前资源缺乏深度,让用户没有得到支持。我在你们平台上的经历在过去一年非常令人失望——没有有意义的指导,只有拒绝。现有模式未能为有抱负的创始人提供价值或实质性结果。

**市场**

有任何竞争对手吗?您对业务有什么理解是他们不了解的吗?
YC,他们太大了,不关心我们。

**股份**

您是否形成了任何法律实体?
是的

请列出您所有的法律实体及其成立州或国家。
太多了,这个框里装不下。

**好奇心**

是什么促使您申请YC?是否有人鼓励您申请?
是的。我认为明确说明你在做什么很重要。

### Spanish:

**Fundadores**

Peter Souslenskii

**¿Estás buscando un cofundador?**

No

**Compañía**

Nombre de la empresa: ycombinator.my

Descripción de la empresa: Soporte para preparar YC fomentando la colaboración y ayuda práctica.

URL de la empresa: https://ycombinator.my

**Sin respuesta**

¿Qué va a hacer su empresa? Describa su producto y lo que hace o hará.
Ayuda a las personas a realizar el mejor trabajo posible en colaboración. Proporcionar un mejor soporte para la aplicación YC fomentando la colaboración, protegiendo la propiedad intelectual y mejorando las probabilidades de éxito. Los recursos actuales carecen de profundidad, dejando a los usuarios sin apoyo. Mi experiencia en su plataforma durante el último año ha sido decepcionante: sin orientación significativa, solo rechazo. El modelo existente no entrega valor ni resultados tangibles para los fundadores aspirantes.

**Competencia**

¿Tiene competidores? ¿Qué entiendes sobre tu negocio que ellos no?
YC, son demasiado grandes para preocuparse por nosotros.

**Participación accionaria**

¿Ha constituido alguna entidad legal?


Por favor, enumere todas las entidades legales que tiene y en qué estado o país se formaron.
Hay demasiadas para caber en este cuadro.

**Curiosidad**

¿Qué te convenció de aplicar a Y Combinator? ¿Alguien te animó a aplicar?
Sí. Creo que es importante ser franco sobre lo que haces.

### Hindi:
---

**संस्थापक**

पीटर सोस्लेंस्की

**क्या आप सह-संस्थापक की तलाश में हैं?**

नहीं

**कंपनी**

कंपनी का नाम: ycombinator.my

कंपनी का विवरण: YC तैयारी सहयोग और व्यावहारिक सहायता को समर्थन करता है।

कंपनी यूआरएल: https://ycombinator.my

**अनुत्तरित**

आपकी कंपनी क्या बनाने जा रही है? कृपया अपने उत्पाद का वर्णन करें और यह क्या करता है या करेगा।
लोगों को सहयोग में सबसे अच्छा कार्य पूरा करने में मदद करता है। सहयोग को बढ़ावा देकर, बौद्धिक संपदा की रक्षा करके और सफलता की संभावनाओं को बढ़ाकर बेहतर YC आवेदन समर्थन प्रदान करना। वर्तमान संसाधनों में गहराई की कमी है, जिससे उपयोगकर्ता बिना समर्थन के रह जाते हैं। आपके मंच पर मेरा अनुभव पिछले वर्ष निराशाजनक रहा है - कोई सार्थक मार्गदर्शन नहीं, केवल अस्वीकृति। मौजूदा मॉडल महत्वाकांक्षी संस्थापकों के लिए मूल्य या ठोस परिणाम प्रदान करने में विफल रहता है।

**प्रतिस्पर्धा**

क्या आपके कोई प्रतियोगी हैं? आपके व्यवसाय के बारे में ऐसा क्या विशेष है जो उन्हें ज्ञात नहीं है?
YC, वे इतने बड़े हैं कि परवाह नहीं करते।

**शेयर होल्डिंग**

क्या आपने कोई कानूनी इकाई बनाई है?
हाँ

कृपया सभी कानूनी इकाइयों की सूची दें और वे किस राज्य या देश में बनी हैं।
यहां फिट होने के लिए बहुत अधिक हैं।

**जिज्ञासा**

आपको Y कॉम्बिनेटर में आवेदन करने के लिए किसने प्रेरित किया? क्या किसी ने आपको आवेदन करने के लिए प्रोत्साहित किया?
हाँ। मुझे लगता है कि यह महत्वपूर्ण है कि आप जो करते हैं उसके बारे में स्पष्ट रहें।

### Arabic:
---

**المؤسسون**

بيتر سوسلينسكي

**هل تبحث عن شريك مؤسس؟**

لا

**الشركة**

اسم الشركة: ycombinator.my

وصف الشركة: دعم إعداد YC لتعزيز التعاون والمساعدة العملية.

رابط الشركة: https://ycombinator.my

**غير مجاب**

ما الذي ستقوم شركتك بصنعه؟ يرجى وصف منتجك وما يفعله أو سيفعله.
يساعد الناس على إنجاز أفضل عمل ممكن بالتعاون. توفير دعم تطبيق YC أفضل من خلال تعزيز التعاون، وحماية الملكية الفكرية، وتحسين فرص النجاح. الموارد الحالية تفتقر إلى العمق، مما يترك المستخدمين بدون دعم. تجربتي على منصتكم في العام الماضي كانت مخيبة للآمال - لا يوجد إرشاد ذو معنى، فقط رفض. النموذج الحالي يفشل في تقديم قيمة أو نتائج ملموسة للمؤسسين الطموحين.

**المنافسون**

هل لديك أي منافسين؟ ما الذي تفهمه عن عملك والذي لا يفهمونه؟
YC، هم كبيرون جدًا لدرجة أنهم لا يهتمون بنا.

**الملكية**

هل قمت بتأسيس أي كيان قانوني؟
نعم

يرجى ذكر جميع الكيانات القانونية التي لديك وفي أي ولاية أو بلد تم تشكيلها.
هناك الكثير لتناسب في هذا المربع.

**فضول**

ما الذي أقنعك بالتقديم لـ Y كومبينيتور؟ هل شجعك أحدهم على التقديم؟
نعم. أعتقد أنه من المهم أن تكون صريحًا بشأن ما تقوم به.
