General Partner
Y Combinator
Check: YC's current standard deal is $500K for each accepted company: $125K for 7% on a post-money SAFE plus $375K on an uncapped MFN SAFE, accompanied by YC's participation right. It is a program-wide deal, not David's personal angel range.
David's founder story centers on building a simple mobile product to massive reach, confronting weak long-term retention and monetization honestly, then following the strongest user behavior into a better product that became Google Photos. His lens favors technical founders who build quickly, notice what users actually value, distinguish downloads from durable engagement and can pivot without losing the underlying insight.
