Show HN: Is there a YC advantage for sales?
Hi all, I had a hypothesis that YC companies sell to other YC companies. Many times to their own batch, other times to older YC companies. One of my YC friends told me that when they approached a big, well-known company for a potential pilot, the director of engineering there was a YC alum. He said "yeah, I understand" and gave them a pilot or LOI. My theory is that most of the logos YC startups show on their landing pages will be other YC companies. They'll use that momentum at Demo D

版本与成本证据
来源票数: 2 votes (2026年10月22日 UTC; cumulative since publication)；前次同口径记录为 2（2026年10月22日 UTC），两个观测值不等于需求增长。 可供比较的近期同类记录：“Democrats launch Nvidia investigation, write scathing letter on Huang’s ‘scheme’ with Trump” (TechCrunch, 2026年11月12日)；“Show HN: A free CRM with AI tools for independent insurance agencies” (Show HN, 2026年11月11日)。主题相近仅用于导航，未核验其是否属于同一需求或独立证据。
适用与受影响对象
先明确变化影响的现有工作流，再判断是否升级。发布热度不证明效果提升；接口、价格或可用性变化也可能增加迁移工作。
缺失的比较信息
待补齐：新旧行为、受影响套餐与地区、生效时间、兼容性、回退路径及同一工作量下的成本。
采用与迁移验证
保存发布或政策原文，对新旧方案运行同一个任务并比较结果与完整账单；若涉及停服，先核验截止时间再安排迁移。
