In the current down market there are almost none. Only previously successful founders might get money at idea stage.

I guess yea but the idea should be easily doable in few months. But the equity structure might not be good, although it's good. Not sure about that

Their equity struckture is actually not that bad considering the benifits the Startup gets because of them. At start, YC's invests a total of $500,000 into our company. This is split into two parts: 1) $125,000 for a fixed 7% stake 2) for the leftover $375,000, the equity is dicided based on the valuation on their next round For eg the startup raises at $5 Million valuation, YC will get $375,000 / $5 Million stake which is another 7.5%.
