@edorahg @evisdrenova @TrustVanta He did not contact customer success; he was just replying to the initial thread. All I'm saying is he could have multi-channeled, but definitely understand the frustration

I will never use @TrustVanta again after how they just treated us. My company was acquired in August of 2025. We promptly emailed Vanta to inform them that we are shutting down our business and need to cancel. After 1 month, they finally replied with direction. "Can you send us acquisition documents?" I replied back and said "I can't legally share our acquisition documents with a vendor, what do you need?" They then ghosted us until January of 2026 (5 months later). During this time, they charged us for 2 quarterly payments (about $5K total). In January 2026, they finally said they need a certificate of dissolution, which I sent to them. They then refunded us $700. I asked for a refund dating back to August 26th when we initially sent the cancellation email. They responded with, "we cannot refund you because the Vanta software was still running until January of 2026. " It was running BECAUSE YOU GHOSTED US AND DIDN'T PROCESS OUR CANCELLATION. @christinacaci is this how you do business and treat your customers who trusted you for 2+ years?

By the end of 2026, I predict token spend will be greater than engineering salaries at early stage startups.

@garrytan I've been saying this: at this point, you should literally make it a company.

I now get so many AI-generated replies that it's just too much work to report them for spam and block them, so I'm downshifting to muting.

@sohan_zhang No response is a response. I don't think this is disrespectful and have seen way worse horror stories. At Novoflow, one of our term sheets got pulled without warning. We thought we would never recover, but thankfully did.

one of the most frustrating experiences about the fundraising process is how decent respect gets thrown out the window one VC fund scheduled 3 meetings with myself and the team over 3 weeks, the last of which included an in person meetup that I took the courtesy of meeting them in the hotel they were staying at in SF. after a conversation, they mentioned that they would get back to me at the beginning of next week. cue 5 days later and i ask for an update. ghosted. i sent follow-up updates, as requested, over the span of a week, and still no response. i completely understand rejection, but it's very frustrating to take multiple meetings over weeks and get completely no response. future YCombinator founders, check the Bookface for investor reviews.

NEW: OpenEvidence just launched “Coding Intelligence,” an AI medical coding feature. It auto-generates CPT, ICD-10, and E/M codes directly from visit notes, with built-in rationale and code sequencing to maximize reimbursement --applied automatically after each visit.

[1] for the last two years, the conversation has been about individual productivity. give everyone Copilot. ship faster. write more code. but the real shift is much bigger than that. it's not about making people faster. it's about redesigning the entire org around agentic systems — and the companies doing this are starting to look radically different. 🧵

first check $500k-1M pre-seed
there are now ~2000 new YC founders per year (!!!) no joke like 1 out of every 2 people who relocated to SF in 2025 must be a YC founder, that's insane

@SherryYanJiang Getting accepted into YC should never be a signal to success. Part of YC's thesis is recruiting people that don't actually need YC.

yes i too have been rejected by yc 3x but i stopped using that as a signal for success. there are more cracked startups that don't get into yc than actually get in. - they can only bring a certain number into each cohort. - they have a specific thesis - sometimes it's not about how good your company is, it's just timing and fit so just keep doing what you do and you'll have 100x other options to be successful.
