Build a YC App Review Agent in 13 Minutes
Scobleizer · x · 2026-07-18
Scobleizer shared that he built a "YC application reviewing agent" using @hyperagentapp, taking only 13 minutes from setup to deployment. The agent allows users to paste a pitch deck or memo. It then simulates the review style of Paul Graham or YC partners, evaluating the material against YC's core criteria to **rewrite a clearer version** and provide a **score with justifications**, focusing heavily on whether the company narrative is clear and the traction is strong. He also mentioned his familiarity with YC founders and Startup School, noting that the agent is designed to help founders quickly identify the strengths and weaknesses in their applications.
