About YC W15
The Y Combinator W15 batch (Winter 2015) brought 78 tech startups into our index. This page lists every W15 company we currently track, with logos, taglines, and links straight to their own sites — no paywalled middleman. Notable W15 companies include GitLab, Akido Labs, Bankjoy, Bizzy, and Bluesmart. Each profile surfaces team size, founding year, location, and open roles when their careers page is publicly scrapable. The W15 cohort skews toward Consumer, Healthcare, and Dev Tools — common patterns we see in this batch. Recurring tags across these companies: SaaS, Artificial Intelligence, AI, Fintech, Marketplace. The directory's filter UI accepts any of them as a query. Geographically, the W15 batch we have leans toward San Francisco, New York, and Los Angeles, with the rest spread across remote-first teams and other hubs. 1 of these is currently flagged as trending based on momentum signals; and the listing refreshes whenever the scrape runs, so changes propagate without a manual edit.
