“I think hard tech is on the rise. Agents make everything easier to do. Hard tech becomes even more fundable and even more doable than before.” I caught Garry Tan backstage before his talk at YC Startup School - to ask about trends he’s seeing in the YC batches...

"75% of Y Combinator's request for startups now is hard tech." - Christian Keil, VP Astranis Space Technologies "We went through YC 8-9 years ago with Boom Supersonic and Relativity Space. It's like the first real hard tech YC foothold." "They were criticized for just doing SaaS, and now moving to defense tech etc. It's sort of damned if you do, damned if you don't." "They do what they think is best, which I think is the right call."

More designers should be founders. And we want to back them at YC. Over the next decade, as new coding tools make it easier than ever to build and ship products quickly, great design is going to matter even more.

Garry Tan (Garry Tan), CEO of YC, has been in San Francisco forever. And he's not leaving. After having him as a guest on Lightspeed's Out of Office, I can see why. A few weeks ago, Garry and I walked the streets of SF to talk about the city's highs and lows, founder resilience at Y Combinator, local politics, death threats, and why venture needs to move earlier in the age of AI. I even got to see Garry's sauna up close. Full video here. If you enjoy it, please subscribe below.

Thrilled to join TBPN at yc Demo Day to discuss seed-to-scale investing with John Coogan & Jordi Hays. We dove into AI startups and why I think the adoption of AI might turn the “Mag 7” into the “Mag 70” over the coming years. Also loved the chance to talk about GV’s long history with yc star alums like Stripe, 🦊 GitLab, PostHog, and so many more. Thanks for having me on and thanks Garry Tan for another great demo day!

I love the description of Pixar as a miracle factory. How do you create the conditions to make special outcomes more likely? Ali Rowghani helped build Pixar, working closely with Steve Jobs and Ed Catmull in their golden era. He also worked closely with the Twitter founders and then Sam at YC. He’s advised some of the best founders through his work at YC Continuity and now his own fund First Harmonic. I love talking to Ali and always learn something new. Hope you enjoy.

Sam Altman: Why YC Beats All Other Startup Accelerators "The difference between the number one and the number two at our stage looks more like the difference between Facebook and my yearbook. People ask why and my answer is always that there is actually a network effect at this stage of funding." Sam Altman talking about Y Combinator in 2015

Designing the new Y Combinator website with Aaron Epstein and Garry Tan was a dream come true. I viscerally believe YC is one of the most iconic and impactful brands in the world, and having the chance to help shape how it shows up in the world was an honor.

This is how i build everything now. Before the agents touch a line of code "before you do any building make 10 mock ups in html of how we can make it look" I then pick a path and ask for more mockups until I feel happy with the feel. The only way to work with these things.

From today: Garry Tan on YC's approach to hardware startups "We have more than $1b capital a year from hundreds of VCs who are meeting founders and funding hard tech." "We need this in America... We can't even make screws for ourselves. We need 1000x of what we have now in American manufacturing." -- honorable mention: Balaji

Philip Johnston (Philip Johnston) is the co-founder and CEO of Starcloud, the company building data centers in space. In November 2025, Starcloud launched an Nvidia H100 GPU into orbit and trained the first large language model in space. They've since raised $200 million, hit a billion-dollar valuation just 17 months after YC demo day and filed with the FCC to deploy 88,000 more satellites. In this episode of Lightcone Podcast, Philip walks us through their wild origin story, the engineering challenges behind the Starcloud-1, why they booked a SpaceX launch before they even knew what they were building and how data centers in space make sense both economically and politically. 00:39 — Why Build Data Centers in Space? 01:40 — The Insight That Started Starcloud 04:43 — Launching Starcloud-1 09:45 — The Engineering Behind Data Centers in Orbit 13:49 — Why 100 VCs Said No 16:12 — Book the Launch Before You Build the Product 18:32 — The Roadmap to Commercial Space Compute 21:10 — Building NVIDIA GPUs for Space 23:41 — Raising $170M for a Hard Tech Startup 26:37 — Hiring the World's Best Space Engineers 31:25 — Why AI Compute Is Moving to Space 34:49 — Advice for Hard Tech Founders
