What you likely need
Ashley is a very early-stage YC S25 founder building Liva AI, a B2B audio/video data marketplace, with a strong technical research background and a prior startup under her belt. Her immediate priorities are closing her first meaningful funding round and scaling data supply and enterprise customer acquisition. As a young founder with a compelling research origin story, she has strong positioning assets she should leverage aggressively.
Are these your current priorities?
We will tune and customize your Founder Festival experience to make sure you get invited to the events that would be most valuable to you.
- fundraisingLeverage your YC S25 batch network and Demo Day momentum to close a seed round — your $500K raise is a starting point but you'll need more capital to scale data collection across 6 countries.
- positioningLead your pitch and content marketing with your IEEE-published lung disease research at 17 and MIT data collection work at 18 — this origin story is a rare credibility signal for enterprise buyers of medical and voice AI training data.
- hiringWith 14 employees and operations in 6 countries, prioritize hiring a Head of Data Operations to systematize your cross-border audio/video collection pipelines before scaling enterprise contracts.
- introsAsk your YC partners and batch peers for warm introductions to voice AI teams at companies like ElevenLabs, Deepgram, and AssemblyAI — your Daily partnership (Smart Turn v3.1) is a strong reference case to open those doors.
- tacticalPublish a public technical post or whitepaper on your rights-cleared, consent-first data collection methodology — this differentiates Liva AI from scraped-data competitors and builds inbound enterprise trust.
- positioningHighlight your Emergent Ventures grant and fellowship in investor materials — it signals external validation from a respected intellectual community beyond YC.
- tacticalBuild out your public GitHub profile (ashl3ymo) with open-source tooling or datasets related to audio data collection — this would attract developer-side credibility and potential enterprise inbound.
