Hummm.... we have customers, we have revenue, we are working with some amazing brands (7-Eleven, pizza hut, Chili's) we have access to more than 500k candidates, we applied to YC and we didn't made even the interview...

I'm starting to think that it was because we did participate in other accelerator before, and that doesn't make much sense to me.

Those brands are big, and had a very strong upward trajectory at one time, but are they amazing? They remind me of sugar water. Especially 7/11. https://signalvnoise.com/posts/2813-do-you-want-to-sell-suga...
