I’m a three-time startup founder, venture partner, TechStars and YCombinator alum, and have raised over $80 million in venture funding. AMA

Hey fellow entrepreneurs!

I’m Rami, and I know what it takes to get a startup off the ground and funded.

Over the course of my career as an entrepreneur, I’ve raised over $80 million in VC funding (including a $5M seed round for my latest venture) and learned how to turn investor no’s into yes’s.

I’m a venture partner at IDEA Fund and Pioneer Fund, and a TechStars and YCombinator alum. My latest venture, Finmark, is dedicated to helping founders understand and take control of their startup’s finances.

I also learned what it’s really like to take your startup to a successful exit.

I’ve sat on both sides of the table in countless pitch meetings, and know what investors need to hear to buy into your vision.Β  AMA

Techstars vs YC

So I applied to both Techstars LA and YC. Techstars just sent me an email they'd like to schedule an interview, haven't heard back from YC yet.

We're a 2-year old startup generating substantial revenue and already raised some money this round so I don't have an urgent need of capital - but network and connections can be very valuable.

One of my investors who's very well connected said Techstars alum don't usually get follow-on offers from bigger VC firms - for whatever reason. I agree that YC is better with more "name recognition" - but was wondering if there's truth to what she said as far as you can tell.

I’m the CEO of Thryve, a service that provides gut test kits and probiotics to improve gut health. We’ve been featured on MIT Tech Review, Techstars, and several other publications. AMA!

12 months ago I took an antibiotic and came down with a nasty stomach bug. I ended up being hospitalized and started researching the reasons for my illness. Turns out antibiotics wipes out all the good and bad bacteria in your system and sometimes the recovery isn't always optimal. Every since then I've been on a conquest to find out more about the bugs in our guts to improve overall health and wellness.

Check out Thryve here or following us on our Facebook, Twitter, and Blog for up to date research and news on the microbiome.

Disclaimer: I don't have any formal microbiology training, but have brought on super smart people with Ph.Ds in Biology and Bioinformatics from the likes of Stanford and Harvard to make Thryve a reality.

Proof

EDIT: We are ending our AMA now. We tried out best to answer everyone (even the top comments!). That said the amount of interest we had on here was really exciting. Thanks again to the Reddit community for engaging with us and allowing us to share the mission of Thryve with you all. Feel free to reach our directly or support@thryveinside if you'd like to followup. Cheers!

FAQS:

Why don't you answer the top questions?

  • It was our first time on Reddit posting. Even AMA was completely new to us. We didn't have any idea it was going to blow up so quickly. Getting to all the messages was a bit overwhelming, but thanks for everyone's patience. Otherwise, please see here for our replies to the top comments: here here and here

Where are the studies for your probiotics, can you claim that it "may" help with support gut and immune function?

  • We partner with a leading probiotic research lab called Synbiotech that creates their own probiotics over the past 15 years. We've partnered with them to create Thryve's probiotics.
