How did we get our first beta tester?
A new user registered on @DraftonHQ recently and created 4 proposals on the platform.
It was the most proposals a single user made in an hour.
We were quite surprised and wanted to reach out to him for being our beta tester.
The user replied with yes and was so much interested in being the beta tester.
What next?
Now, we're laser-focused on meeting this user's needs for their specific use cases. We're working closely with them to understand how they use Drafton and what improvements they'd like to see.
Next steps:
Regular check-ins with our beta tester
Implementing feedback and tracking improvements
Gradually expanding our beta testing program
I understand it's not a big number as many platforms have a big number of beta testers but everything starts from 0.
Are you interested in proposal creation and want to shape the future of Drafton? We're looking for more beta testers! reach out to us at [email protected]
It's bit late to update and finally we got the rejection mail from @ycombinator
While we're disappointed @DraftonHQ wasn't selected for Y Combinator's upcoming batch, the rejection has only fueled our motivation and resolve. The intense competition and thousands of outstanding applications put into perspective how we must continue elevating our game.
This experience reinforced that building a great company takes immense grit, unwavering belief in your vision, and a capacity for constructive feedback to achieve breakthrough innovation. We're galvanized to double down on our efforts, iterate based on learnings, and come back even stronger for the next opportunity.
To our fellow founders who also received Y Combinator rejections - take it as a catalyst to raise your ambition. Use this as a moment to reassess, adapt where needed, but maintain your entrepreneurial fire. The obstacles and naysayers we face are what forge the perseverance required to realize game-changing ideas.
We'll be reapplying for future YC batches and look forward to crossing paths with many of you again on that journey. For now, it's time to get back to building with renewed hunger and purpose. Our path is only just beginning.
Thank you to amazing people who helped us throughout the application process @ShariarK8@kylegalbraith@vivianmshen
