In the crowded field of AI related startups, it's important to get your website just right. You probably have a lot to say, but not a lot of time to say it. For this episode of Design Review, Group Partner Aaron Epstein invited YC President and CEO Garry Tan to break down what’s working (and what’s not) on the websites of five different AI startups. Watch along as they provide concrete advice that will help you improve your own site designs, regardless of what type of company you’re building.
And if you'd like to have your startup's website reviewed, please submit your info here: shorturl.at/wIJS0. We’re especially interested in checking out mobile site designs for an upcoming episode.

Hey guys Julius (Techstars Alumni 2019), I am just soooo thankful for your videos. This goes out to all alums around the world: Never stop learning. This video showed me again, tech evolves at a speed that one is simply not allowed to drop out of the learning curve for more than a year. Really impressive. Thank you so much for sharing this.

I wish there was a examination of mobile versions as well… in our case 80% are mobile visitors, so it would be useful to understand what are the principles for mobile design

The development of AI is unstoppable! The demand for AI specialists is soaring, and they are indeed in high demand! Partnering with a vendor for AI talent can be a game-changer, especially when time is of the essence. With the right vendor, you gain access to a pool of skilled AI engineers without the lengthy recruitment process. This way, you can swiftly assemble a talented team and kickstart your AI projects in no time.

If your call to action is to have people to try your product, is it good practice to always have an input box for email in the first part of the website, or also fine to leave it at the end, after the person has scrolled through the website to understand what is actually is?

@ycombinator Год назад

Input box on homepage generally is unnecessary - and it takes screen real estate and cognitive budget away from what you should be doing: making sure people know wtf your company does. -Garry

@BuckFanks Год назад

You don't wanna be clever, if clever is confusing. Wise words.

You seem to have a couple of "design principles" in your mind while evaluating these sites. What are they? Is there an article/video you can refer us to?

How can we balance our social life and entrepreneurial life? Please make video on this , yc

@avaquest Год назад

I have a genuine question, not trying to attack a company or y combinator but I noticed most of these companies have little social presence in terms of low posting, low efforts, low subscribers, etc. .. so how do they get a lot of users then? are there other good strategies besides social media?

@ycombinator Год назад

B2B / enterprise / SMB businesses tend to rely less on social media and more on outbound or inbound marketing, which means the website needs to support a sales team or some drip campaign that gets people to convert. Social media is a factor in inbound marketing but not the only one. Events are often much bigger for such businesses.

@avaquest Год назад

For some apps, especially ones for nicher users (for instance reality defender seems to fit this), wouldn't real users who end up on a webpage already know something about what the app does from wherever they heard about the company?

@ycombinator Год назад

Yes, but the people who show up will come with varying levels of understanding and you cannot assume really anything about the user. The more you assume, the more the lost opportunity. -Garry

Stock photos and videos turn me off to a product. Avoid that! They rarely convey any useful information and don’t make me want to buy the product. It’s just distracting. What do pictures of people have to do with your product?

@_jko 11 месяцев назад

I don't think this was a great a content. Like one of the hosts said on the video, they are not the target demo for these companies. So they generally commented on the design aspect of the website, and some are valid, but they simply don't get what the companies are going for.
