Y Combinator batches, by outcome
Y Combinator publishes who joined each batch. Dealroom records what happened next.
Coverage: 5,853 of 6,162 companies (95%) are joined to a Dealroom company record. Batch membership, sector and country cover every company; money raised, valuations and unicorn counts are computed over the matched companies and are floors, not totals.
Batch size
Batch size over time
Companies in each batch, from 9 in S05 to a peak of 398 in W22. The toggles switch to money raised since each batch and to unicorn counts, both from Dealroom's records of the matched companies.

Sectors
Sector mix by batch
Each batch by YC's own sector label, which covers every company in the batch. AI is not a sector in YC's taxonomy — the strip underneath counts companies carrying an AI-related tag instead.
Companies with an AI tag
Share of each batch that YC tags "AI", "Artificial Intelligence", "Generative AI" or "Machine Learning" — 152 of 228 companies (67%) in S26. The line covers batches where YC has tagged at least half the companies, so it starts at S09, and the dashed span bridges W10, W26 and X26, where tagging is still in progress.

ABatch pages
One batch page is published so far
W21 covers 336 companies, 325 of them matched to a Dealroom company record. More pages follow, built the same way. The charts above already cover every batch; a company-by-company page is published once its roster has been reviewed — there are no placeholder pages.
What the index shows
What a batch page contains
Every page is the same shape, so two batches can be read against each other.
- Batch roster and status. Every company YC lists, with the status YC gives it: active, inactive or acquired.
- Data coverage. How many of the batch are joined to a Dealroom company record, and by which method. Across the index that is 5,853 of 6,162 companies.
- Money raised. Total funding on Dealroom's record, with the number of companies it is computed over stated next to it.
- Outcomes. Unicorns, acquisitions and closures, counted over matched companies only.
- Sector and country. From YC's own directory, so the distributions cover the batch in full.
- The full member list. Every company in one table, crawlable, with a link to its Dealroom profile where one is published and to its YC page otherwise.
There is no composite score and no ranking of batches against each other. The counts are shown with the population they are computed over, and where Dealroom has no record the cell is empty rather than zero.
