On a side note, and no pun intended, I find it interesting that you find the need to mention that you are a ex-YC company to draw attention towards your offering. I'm curious to know how many upvotes this launch would have have gathered once you take that out. Just saying.

We’re on HN. Mentioning your company’s YC class is less like “free attention” and more like “full disclosure”.
