It's sort of crazy YC is backing so many hundreds of companies that there's this level of overlap. I assume one pivoted into this?

Value isn’t zero sum, or more accurately, most spaces are not winner take all so there is room for multiple great companies to be built. Every company I’ve ever started, I even make a point of reaching out to the competitors in my space to meet the founders. These frienemies are often some of the most fun people to compare notes with. We generally don’t share everything but enough for the conversations to be productive.
