Founderpool are not affiliated with YC in any way. I am not sure who suggested that. I am part of the founderpool team.

Thanks for noting your affiliation. The YC question came up because of the OP's comment "This is one of the most founder requested features in YC", which makes it sound like the company is well-connected to the accelerator.

How did you decide to do this as a regular post instead of a "Show HN"? Did you already do one, or make a strategic decision? Who else among the commenters is affiliated with the company?

We decided it is of interest to the founders in the audience and not necessarily as a show HN (which is in our mind a tool specific people like to play with)

Only three people are with Founderpool. me, manoj and geoburke
