If you're "close to break even" that implies you're getting revenue somewhere. But your site says your product is free. So where is the money coming from?
Appodeal makes money by selling to direct advertisers in bulk at a higher rate. Basically we charge advertisers, rather than publishers.

Apparently, not well enough, haha. Anyway, it might be a good thing after all.
One of the last things YC cares about is your landing page. Yours is pretty good, don't sweat it. Edit: To clarify, a good landing page is important but the other things like team, demo, video, and well written answers are more important IMO.
