Wardstone Takes 2nd Place at YC's 2025 Product Show Case

Last night was a milestone moment for us: Wardstone took home 2nd place at Y Combinator’s Product Showcase. Out of dozens of teams building everything from AI tools to robotics, we walked away with silver — and honestly, we couldn’t be more proud of what this signals for the product, the team, and the problem we’re solving.

The event brought together founders, investors, operators, and YC alums for an evening of fast-paced demos and real-time judging. Every team had just a few minutes to explain what they’re building, why it matters, and why now — which is exactly the kind of pressure cooker early-stage startups thrive in.
