Welcome to Season 2 of the Dorm Room Disruptors Podcast. In this season we want to dial in one topic that often draws lots of curiosity… Y Combinator.

Y Combinator is a startup bootcamp, that runs multiple times a year and is highly exclusive. AirBNB, Reddit, and DoorDash are all alumni from the program.

This episode is sponsored by Jetson, the #1 entrepreneurship app. If you are thinking of starting a business try out Jetson Pro here.

Lucious is the co-founder and Chief Eating Officer at BiteSight. Before starting his company, Lucious built his first $1M ARR product while moonlighting at a YC company at 19 years old. Lucious also built a treasury management company focused on nonprofits and was an analyst at General Atlantic covering restaurant tech.

He is now building Bitesight with the help of his co-founder. BiteSight is a video-based food delivery app that learns what you like and shows you exactly what you are craving.  Imagine TikTok meets DoorDash. Since launching the beta in February, BiteSight has onboarded 274 restaurants in SF, and users are growing more than 50% each week, all organically.
