Turn the Y Combinator company directory into a B2B lead list. Filter by keyword, batch, industry, or hiring status and get, for every startup, the company, website, a scraped contact email, one-liner, industry, team size, location, batch, and hiring flag. One lead per startup.

YC startups are a premium target for B2B vendors, recruiters, and investors. The directory is keyless, and the contact email is scraped from the company website (99% of companies list one).

Who buys this

  • B2B SaaS selling to fast-growing startups early.
  • Recruiters and staffing (use the hiring filter).
  • VCs and competitive intel tracking batches and sectors.
  • Sales teams building a curated, funded-company pipeline.

How it works

  1. It loads the YC company directory and filters by your keywords, batches, industries, hiring status, and team size.
  2. It fetches each company website and scrapes a contact email.
  3. Each startup is scored and tiered, then pushed as one lead.

Output

One row per startup:
