Guessed this site was made by them when the third metric was:

"The Most Photogenic Based on Snappr Photo Quality Score"

Interesting site regardless

Very nice! Is the raw data publicly available? Or is it just scraped from Crunchbase?

Infogami didn't die, it merged with reddit. I know because I had to figure out how to make that code actually run.

There is also https://yclist.com which is not as polished but has some interesting information.
