File size aside, I can confidently say - United hands down has the best app of any major airline in the world. It's better than their website and often-times even better than calling customer service on their 1K (top loyalty status) line. Many ways to make it better, but if we're comparing it to airlines & hotels, it's extremely well done.

It's upside if you need the money right away.

It's a bad deal if you have other willing investors. Let's say you exit YC and have a helpful angel (or many) who want to invest. Without the YC note, you may choose to let them invest $20-50k checks at a good deal, say (just example numbers) $12-15M post, before you raise a proper seed at $20M+ post. In that scenario, the YC note converts with the helpful angels.

In another scenario, let's say you get a term sheet for your seed at demo day, $3M @ $20M post from a firm that wants 15%. Then you add in another $1M from angels (5%) and the mandatory $375k from YC (1.8%) and you're at 21.8% dilution. Or you take $375k less and cut out angels you wanted on the cap table.

No reason to prefer the capped, but I definitely might prefer to not take the note at all.

Is it required to take the $375k note? If so, definitely a bad deal for some, and disincentivizes taking on early angels at an attractive cap.

Curious, why? (I admittedly know very little here)

What do people even use to create deep fakes like this?

Super cool man!

@djrogers -- Ryan was also on the founding team of OpenDoor. I can promise you Steve Ross, Michael Fuchs, Steven Roth, and Jerry Speyer all describe themselves as founders. The greatest leaders in real estate do, because they have innovated to build something people want. And Culdesac is very much a startup.
