YC's Growth Benchmarks

YC typically sets a 5-7% weekly growth target for startups. Below 1% means no PMF; 2-3% is the passing line; 5%+ is a good company; 7%+ is a star. A few percentage points per week seems small, but compounded over 52 weeks: 5% WoW = 1,164% YoY, while 2% WoW is only 176% YoY — a 6x difference.
