Unlikely. I doubt that's the real reason -- it's just the excuse the recruiter told you.
You probably just had a bad interview. Either you're not completely qualified, or they didn't feel you were a good fit for the team. Maybe they didn't like some of your answers to the interview questions. Or, somebody else beat you out for the position.
Using careful wording you can spin any negative experience into something positive. I'd recommend doing that with your startup.
