Startups.RIP - Rebuild 1,738+ dead YC startups with AI
by•
Startups often fail because of timing, not ideas. Startups.RIP is a wiki of 1,700+ YC startups that shut down or got acquired. Our AI research agent writes a detailed post-mortem (what they built, why they failed, what's changed since) and a rebuild playbook with implementation-ready technical specs you can drop straight into your AI coding agent. Every failed startup is a validated market with unfinished business. Shortcut the idea maze. Start with what almost worked.

I love the name, You can maybe include a link to the archive website to see the previous website ?
Startups.RIP
@bengeekly Good call! We'll wrap old links (might not be up anymore) in something like web archive / wayback machine.
I'd love to hear when someone uses your site and (re)builds a successful product - must be so satisfying!
