Notes from the demo run

AI-generated

ExploreYC nails a developer-terminal aesthetic ('$ startup-db', monospace, dark). Signup drops you straight into the product with no email-verify step, and the core Companies Database is genuinely rich: 8,290 companies across YC + a16z, filterable by source/batch/industry/country with a live result count, plus a developer dashboard for API keys and clean API docs.

Highlights
  • Zero-friction onboarding
    Email+password signup lands directly on /dashboard — no verification wall between a visitor and the data.
  • Dense, filterable dataset
    8,290 companies, 1,530 hiring, 50 batches — filters (source/batch/industry/country) recompute a result count instantly. This is the product and it shows well.
  • API-first design
    A developer dashboard with generatable API keys + dedicated API docs signals the real audience is builders, not browsers.
Friction points
  • Core export is disabled
    The Database footer reads 'Data export (CSV / JSON) is paused while we rebuild it' and the export button just links to a feature-request — the headline value action is currently a dead end for signups who came to export.
  • Session token lives in localStorage
    Auth is a 'dev_token' in localStorage rather than an HttpOnly cookie; moving it to an HttpOnly cookie would harden it against XSS token theft.
