YC W15 invites will be sent out today
As the invites (or rejections) will land in 1000s of inboxes today, 3% will be seen packing their bags for the interview and others will get back to building their startups.
Let's do one thing - the 97% who won't get the chance of interview will post their product's homepage and demo URL in this thread so that we all can provide crowd-feedback to them.
The happier 3% are also invited to share their products/demo as well.
Let's do it, then?

PyEDA is a Python library for electronic design automation.
PyEDA is another option that we could work on but I had to send the idea over to Mr. Graham's public email address just a few days ago. Since it was not mentioned on our application but briefly talked about (by me and most likely to myself), is PyEDA still a legitimate candidate for this forum?
Python EDA Documentation Release: 0.25.0 Date: October 21, 2014

I know it's hard to focus on anything right now on what seems like the judgement day... Maybe reading PyEDA will help make time fly faster? Anything feedback is greatly appreciated.
This round is not over. We can help each other!!
Please convert the time to your timezone accordingly.
CDN for web developers --- process and host static assets the easiest and fastest way possible.
Just keep the files in your Dropbox folder and we automatically receive, version and invoke any file generators in the pipeline. Builds CoffeeScript, LESS, SASS, compressed JavaScript, CSS, image manipulations etc. There's also handlebars templating for full-blown static website generation.
All assets are hosted at either your custom domain or at ultra-short //yourname.m7.io
CDN meets real-time upload meets asset pipeline meets git meets devops :)
Edit: I'd rather it just minified and gzipped the files, and uploaded them to my existing storage (e.g S3) rather than setup a new CDN.
Do not know if my team is accepted or not, but either way we are going forward with our idea.
A way to help everyone focus and improve, especially, ADHD, depression, and anxiety without any negative side effects.
Further, we accomplish this via an improved method of reviewing EEG data, which we intend to patent this winter. Hopefully, this can improve medicine overall.
I tried to do somewhat similar as a hobby project -- connecting Zeo (now bankrypt) product (brain sensor) with a serial port to the computer and processing the real-time feed with python in order to provide feedback guiding to better focus or whatever the expected brainwave frequency was (deeper meditation was the other goal).
In the end it was working quite well so as a technology this can work great! Working well as in being able to transition my brain state easily. In terms of focusing better -- not sure, I'm quite well focused most of the time and I wasn't sure which targets to hit with my brain :)
My real goal with my hobby was more ambitious -- to use brainwave hemisphere sync technology (binaural beats) to guide brain to the expected state while monitoring the actual brain state with the sensors. Unfortunately, as with hobbies, time ran out and currently not working on it.
BUT -- it could be a fun thing to think about --- using brainwave entertainment/binaural beats in sync with your sensors for maximum effect! Thoughts?

Good luck everyone :).
We just got our interview email btw!! Good luck guys!!
Virtual machines and Docker containers made easy. 1-click install on a desktop or server, auto-configure hypervisors, super-usable interface. This week we're releasing a standalone alpha (almost one-click). https://github.com/virtkick/virtkick-starter
tl;dr DigitalOcean for open source.
Of course, with time the homepage evolves and changes accordingly.

Behavior-driven lifecycle messaging for SaaS companies. Basically, automatically send personalized SMS, email, or push notifications to users based on what they do in your app.
I'm not sure yet if we've been invited or not but either way we're still full steam ahead!
There is an exposed admin panel. We are currently rebuilding the service to make it even more easier to use and robust than our previous iteration. We are just a few weeks out from reopening the doors but we'll be letting a bunch of folks use it while we build it.
Our first iteration, while somewhat successful, left a lot on the table as far as the potential for the product. So we went back to the drawing board to make it even better.
Looks like there's some overlap over there!
"MarketPsych ran an audited hedge fund (MarketPsy Long-Short Fund LP) from 2008 through 2010, which beat the S&P benchmark by 25% during its lifetime."
I know the MarketPsych founder Richard. Great guy, super forward thinking and definitely someone we respect. He sells exclusively through TR now I believe.
Under the hood we are very different cos in terms of our data and what we aim to do with it. Time will tell ;-)
I'd like to see you succeed, one way or another.
On the surface, I think you guys look awesome. We should network somehow.
Helping farmers worldwide to improve their production yields based on best practices, data analytics and science information with a free cloud SaaS app.
Horntell - http://horntell.com Demo - http://demo.horntell.com
We allow businesses to automatically engage their users and turn them into champions. I think, demo should give you a fair piece of idea.
What do you think about the demo, guys? Awesome? Good? Or just Eh? :)
TIA
Nice design, though.
But we need your name to show the personalisation capabilities and email to demonstrate you the off-site engagement.
I know everyone says it, but we truly mean it when we say that we will not spam you. It is the need of demo that it requires some information to personalise the demo your way.
Anyways, thanks for the feedback. We will definitely brainstorm something around it this week.
