We have some big product updates for Polymet and just launched on Product Hunt! Check it out and support at producthunt.com/posts/polymet-… As @ycombinator S24 batch is coming to an end, we wanted to close the batch by having another big launch and shipped lots of new product updates.

YC Retreat ended yesterday and the batch officially started. We've met with amazing people and it was an experience of a lifetime. We got to learn the stories of our group partners and what they've been through. And as @garrytan said: WE'RE HERE TO WIN! Thanks @ycombinator!

This is huge! Whenever you start working on your idea, you’ll always have a YC batch that you can apply and join in 3 months! In the case they pass, you will have 3 months to prove your progress instead of 6. Amazing…

YC is going 4 batches per year @daltonc @harjtaggar @snowmaker and all the YC partners worked very closely with me to make this happen — we're trying to be as responsive as possible to all the future founders in the world. Great ideas are the work of many great partners

Just tried the same prompt to generate a dashboard interface. @polymetai vs @v0 vs @AnthropicAI Polymet is very good on the first run. 🔥 It's how interesting that you can always build a better product. Prompt: I want to create a observability page with all the user API

first off, every @ycombinator founder I’ve met so far is working extremely hard to build their business and no one can fake it because you meet with your batchmates and partners every week to report. second, they fund all types of founders and we are the proof of that. no ivy,

We’ve applied multiple times before getting accepted with @polymetai and I’m glad we did. You ask the right questions to yourself with the YC application and if you get an interview you get asked the questions that matter the most for you business

The deadline for YC’s first fall batch is just 2 days away! Applying now could be a life-changing experience, just like it was for me and @algolia. Even if you aren’t selected, the application process will help you reflect and time well spent! Apply here: ycombinator.com/apply

just listened to @ajassy and @garrytan first off, its an amazing feeling to be this close to people you looked up to like the CEO of Amazon, the guy who built AWS. @ycombinator distorts your reality field to make you believe you can build something that touches a billion

The whole team at @Remade_AI is using @polymetai to revamp their ux. Its so nice to see Chris, Rehan and Blendi on action and building with Polymet. Also go check their product they’re the best out there for product photography and videos with AI.

Late night design sessions with @ycombinator companies who use @polymetai is my favorite activity! Tonight I was over at @comfydeploy helping @BennyKokMusic and Nick. They’re building really cool stuff, keep an eye out for their updates.

Everything aside, this is the best part of @ycombinator! I made so many friends who I admire and pushed us forward. You can see how much fun it is to chat with @AchyutaIyengar1, @jaiyarlagadda and Bharadwaj from @Mica_AI_Inc There are many conversations like these :)
