    There's a reason there is only 18% doing b2c. Finding your audience/consumer can be difficult to find (relative to b2b), then they don't like paying for services, and theres loads of churn.

    • @DataSciencewithHarshit
      @DataSciencewithHarshit  5 місяців тому +5

      agreed and on top of that you've giants catering to this audience which can very easily take your audience away.

      B2B.. relatively it's easier to fake revenue.. say YC companies can use other YC startup services to make its valuation higher for IPO, or next funding round?

    • @bwhit7919
      @bwhit7919 5 місяців тому +1

      ⁠​⁠@@vijay0exactly. Y Combinator doesn’t teach companies how to make a good product. It gives its companies prestige, which they use to swindle investors and big businesses. It’s just like consulting firms and elite schools.

    YC has a video on why its preferred to choose B2B over B2C, its called 'Avoid Tarpit ideas". We often don't realize **how high the bar actually is** and how good the products we use actually are.

      This is the downside of “Do Things that don’t Scale”. Businesses will pay for a bad MVP if they know it’ll get better with time. Customers won’t pay for a bad MVP. They’ll just ignore you.

    This video serves the heaviest drop in my bucket of making an AI startup. I, along w my colg frnd have been deeply involved in ideating over the idea of sy thetic data, esp in terms of Medicine AI training. The target market we agreed on is Indian subcont.
    This vid, came at ri8 time, and made my whole AI business research work less cumbersome by providing a summary.
    Additional, i would req you to make a vid on synthetic data industry, as it's really new and I myself need exposure about the trends of industry...

  • @murraygraham4753
    @murraygraham4753 5 місяців тому +1

    Just a thought...does using the number of companies not potentially skew the interpretation, as opposed to revenue generated in that industry, or GDP in the sector, which would show a money-based measure? Obviously, both could be used in coming to conclusions.

    • @DataSciencewithHarshit
      @DataSciencewithHarshit  5 місяців тому

      Interesting point. As you said, both will be insightful and it all depends on the outcome you're optimising for. My people want to learn more about the kind of ideas they can start building with AI which have some backing and are not just "cool" or "best".
      So, this analysis is only catered towards people to find what's worth building and what it takes (people). This, by no means, is representative of all the companies / industries and doesn't capture the market caps, although that would also be a very insightful data point.

    • @murraygraham4753
      @murraygraham4753 5 місяців тому

      @DataSciencewithHarshit Accepted. My point though is, knowing 20 YC companies are present in a sector, for example, wouldn't seem to me to get you closer to a decision to enter there since those 20 could be small or large, their revenues could be small or large, and the industry GDP could be small or large. Please don't take what I am saying as a criticism, beyond wondering whether your analysis would provide the information needed. I just think, without having a financial metric or two thrown in, that provide the size, growth possibilities, potential barriers etc of a sector, comparing sector based on the number of companies alone could lead to joining one with fewer companies, only to discover it's actually "crowded" even with a small number of firms vying, with revenue hard to pry from the hands of clients and competitors.
      Your analysis is definitely food for thought, regardless of my observation, so many thanks for putting it together!👍🏼

  • @SuperNishant92
    @SuperNishant92 4 місяці тому

    quite useful. Something I'd like to know is how many of these YC companies are LLM wrappers ?

    • @DataSciencewithHarshit
      @DataSciencewithHarshit  4 місяці тому

      Very few, I assume because YC has a good selection process with smart folks assessing these companies.
      Many may have started from being a wrapper but would have convinced YC by showcasing a roadmap.

  • @BartoszBorkowski
    @BartoszBorkowski 5 місяців тому

    Also, remember that b2b doesn’t necessarily mean business to company, this may mean business to sole proprietor. For example something geared towards drivers or care-givers would be b2b even though there’s a single person on the other end of the solution. Saying this, so you don’t have this view that you need to find a big singular business customer and solve their specific problem, or focus on some generic need of all big businesses.

    Q: Why do you say business will shut with the OpenAI's next model?Please elaborate with example.

    • @DataSciencewithHarshit
      @DataSciencewithHarshit  4 місяці тому

      Companies that are simply calling OpenAI APIs and showcasing the output on a webpage like travel itinerary or email summary, etc. With Gmail introducing all these features, those companies don't have any future now.
