"YC Demo Day median dilution for small seed is XX% (top XX% is 7%) not XX% for non-YC YC Demo Day median dilution for big seed is XX% not XX% to XX% for non-YC You do it all faster: YC funds you get pre-seed and in X months you have your seed and you're off to the races no BS plus you get the network the media the community and 1:1 partner support for the life of the co. YC pays for itself and then some. There's nothing like it for founders. (There's nothing like it for investors too median MOIC is 5x for perennial investors at Demo Day bottom quartile is 3.3x)"
