What you likely need
You're at the exact moment where warm intros and external validation matter most — a pre-seed check or YC acceptance would unlock everything else. The highest-leverage Festival events for you are small rooms with micro-VC and angel investors who back AI productivity tools, YC alumni who can champion your application, and build-in-public developer communities where your open-source work can earn you credibility fast. Getting in front of the right ex-Amazon and ex-TikTok operator networks will also accelerate your first design-partner pipeline.
