There is indeed a different YC program for early-stage startups working on product. It's called the YC Fellowship.

The YC Fellowship got axed. From what I understand, they're replacing it with an online course (similar to their startup videos/lectures) and it does not include any funding.

Oh that's sad - do you have link to an announcement? I wonder why..
