I have the list so I will try to remember to comeback and do a postmortem in a few years time. The likelihood is that every single application on the list will fail to become a unicorn and very few will ever make a profit. This is just the way the numbers fall out on early stage startups.

The reason I didn't actually list each of the companies in each category is that the purpose was not to critic individual applications, but to look at them as a whole and try to draw lessons from what I saw. There is a real disconnect between what people are proposing and the questions investors want answered. If you want someone's money you need to have good answers for these questions.
