What you likely need
You're a repeat founder with a YC W21 pedigree who has transitioned from Mayan.co to building Tekkers AI at an early stage. Your strongest assets are your YC network, Amazon/e-commerce domain expertise, and a track record of co-founding and scaling a funded startup. The next phase is about validating Tekkers AI's product-market fit and leveraging your YC alumni status to accelerate fundraising and hiring.
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.
- introsTap your YC W21 alumni network for warm intros to seed-stage investors who back AI tooling startups — your batch peers and YC partners are the fastest path to a first check.
- fundraisingFormalize a seed round for Tekkers AI now while AI tooling is attracting strong investor interest — your Mayan track record and YC brand significantly de-risk the ask.
- positioningWrite a public post-mortem or case study on Mayan.co's growth and transition to position yourself as a credible domain expert in Amazon seller tooling and AI automation.
- hiringWith only 4 employees at Tekkers AI, prioritize hiring a senior full-stack or ML engineer to accelerate product development before your next fundraise.
- tacticalClearly define Tekkers AI's ideal customer profile and publish a landing page with a waitlist to generate early demand signal before approaching investors.
- positioningEstablish a public GitHub presence for Tekkers AI to build technical credibility and attract open-source contributors or early adopters from the developer community.
- wellbeingAs a serial founder running multiple concurrent ventures (Tekkers AI and a stealth startup), be intentional about focus — spreading attention too thin at the pre-seed stage is a common failure mode.
