YC over time

Batch explorer

All 6,288 companies, S05 first

Every official directory batch, including the batches with zero confirmed filings (F25, S26, F26, W27, S27, Unspecified). Status is YC’s. CIK, ticker, and first filing appear only when a match was confirmed. Website is the official directory URL when present.

Directory mindmap

Years from the center out

Center is YC. The ring is years. Click a year to see its batches, then a batch for the companies. Expand makes the map bigger. Search filters the map. Try to highlight W16 and F25. Esc closes the panel. Nothing here is invented.

Filings over time

First EDGAR filing by year

First Form D date when known, else the first filing attributed to the operating company. 556 companies with a dated first filing. 2021 peak.

US listings (IPO effectiveness, 8-A12B, or S-4 effectiveness) — 22 of 25 in the public set. Stripe, Meesho, and Groww have no listing event in the file.

First-party issuers

18 YC fund vehicles

Confirmed EDGAR issuers at 335 Pioneer Way, Mountain View, CA. Form D / D/A only — no 10-K, 13F, or S-1 under these CIKs. The adviser, Y Combinator Management, LLC (CRD 171730), has no CIK. 18 first-party CIKs · 29 Form D / D/A filings.

First Form D Legal name Filings CIK

Core seed names on the 2026 ADV — Y Combinator Fund I, Fund II, YCVC Fund I — carry placeholder Form D numbers and were not found on EDGAR.

Public set

25 in the public / SEC-rich set

Official YC status = Public is 23. Reddit (still Acquired) and Stripe (still Active) are included because they are the SEC-rich exceptions named in the research, not because we changed YC’s labels.
