Right, you'd think they have bigger fish to fry

+1 to your landing page design. Very fun and engaging.
Some feedback:
- Onboarding is too long: incentivizes fake sign-ups just to see the jobs
- None of the investors listed seem that impressive, which makes me think this is just limited supply rather than higher-quality supply
- Card design looks like Otta, made me wonder what makes this site unique?
Your site feels like a twist on https://topstartups.io/ except I prefer the open format of being able to see everything. Maybe it's instant gratification

http://angel.co/ is a common one, although some of the startups are a bit sketch, so you gotta do your research. https://topstartups.io/ filters for higher-quality startups

Yes, valuations have gone through the roof, but the equity grants have not kept pace. This is a huge disservice to candidates. Got especially bad in 2021. Really important for people to research startup pay before signing: https://topstartups.io/startup-salary-equity-database/
To the OP: if you believe your comp bands are competitive, why not share in the posting itself?

Same!
Why I joined: Was tired of big tech and wanted to learn faster. Founders were smart. Ran a surprisingly tight interview process.
Advice: if I were to reverse-engineer this, I would follow Seed-Series A investments from Tier 1 firms. These are the highest-signal companies.
