Based on the above why are you even pursuing VC?
Now we're more looking into nondilutive funding and our lines of credit are burgeoning so it's possible VC won't be needed altogether. Not ready to close the door yet though, especially to the most selective programs and institutions both now and down the line. If we got into YC we would definitely accept, or even some other selective program like NFX FAST we would definitely consider very seriously.
