Owners Circle went through Y Combinator in the Summer 2014 batch, describing itself as Kickstarter for local businesses. Y Combinator's company directory lists it as Inactive. The directory does not say why a company stopped, and this page does not guess.

Its batch
Summer 2014 had 78 companies in YC's listing: 21 Active, 27 Acquired, 3 Public and 27 Inactive, so Owners Circle is one of 27 companies from that batch listed as Inactive (35%). Across YC batches at least two years old, 23% of companies are listed Inactive.
Statuses are Y Combinator's own listing in its public company directory, read on the date shown. YC's directory can drop companies altogether, so the Inactive counts here are a floor, not a full count of companies that stopped. Acquired and Public are as YC lists them; neither says anything about the price or the outcome for founders.
The record: Owners Circle in the Y Combinator directory. Measured 2026-09-26 from Y Combinator's company directory.
