FAQ
Does this work for hardware vs software startups?
Yes. Hardware-specific milestones (prototype, manufacturing, regulatory) replace software-specific ones in the milestone section.
Can the plan generate a YC application?
Yes. The investor-memo agent adapts the full plan to YC application format.
What plan supports a venture-backed startup?
Pro ($16/mo annual) is the sweet spot. Business ($40/mo) adds investor-relations audit logs.
