Building Asendia for staffing agencies taught me something: The founders who win don't pitch their product. They learn the business so deeply they could run it themselves. That's when you stop guessing what's a top priority → and start knowing.

People ask me almost every day for tips on getting into YC. The best advice is still @paulg’s 2020 essay: https://t.co/GOdUsMcet3 Don’t try to hack YC. Make something people want, understand those users deeply, and explain it clearly.
