@beondeck Feels like YC circa 2009 to me. It's intimate and feels like a family, yet also filled with talented and inspiring people at a similar stage of their life's journey. If you don't need demo day and want to keep more equity, it might even be a better choice than YC.
— Tony Xiao (@tony_xiao) January 5, 2020
I’ve met a lot of the OnDeck founders and it’s a very impressive group. @julianweisser @eriktorenberg and crew are building something special that echoes early YC. https://t.co/nmFgcH2C8f
