Welcome to YC for Creators
YC for Creators is an accelerator that helps early-stage Creators.
Features
- Accelerator. Curriculum specific to content-focused founders & early-stage holding companies.
- Standard Deal Term & Docs. A “YC SAFE” for founder friendly deal terms.
- Company Design. Sequoia-inspired best practices for content-centered early-stage holding companies. Two new styles of founder/investing = new frameworks & company health benchmarks.
- Content-driven Community. Aggregating follow-on investors, company advisors and creator-operators interested in creator founders.
Why
Big Thinking. Creator businesses are focused on being “sustainable,” not venture-scaleable
Different Curriculums. Startup curriculum and benchmarks don’t include content as a product or a key aspect to company building
“Clean Up.” Like engineers in the early 2000s, creators are a new, investable talent pool, content creators need a “clean up” with strategies, best practices, and mentors that support their ability to hit venture scale.
Founder Friendly Norms. Deals in market for creators are too investor friendly; founders are less in the drivers seat = growth-focused companies are dead on arrival.
