From Idea to Pitch Deck in 15 Minutes

Investors don't invest in products; they invest in stories. Your pitch deck is the visual aid for that story. Here is the standard 10-slide structure that has raised billions.

The 10-Slide Standard

1. Title: Company name and one-line value prop.
2. Problem: What is broken? (Use data/emotion).
3. Solution: How do you fix it? (Show the product).
4. Why Now?: Why hasn't this been solved before?
5. Market Size: TAM, SAM, SOM. (Bottom-up calculation).
6. Competition: Why are you 10x better?
7. Product: How does it work? (Screenshots).
8. Business Model: How do you make money?
9. Team: Why are you the right people to build this?
10. Ask: How much do you need and what will you achieve?

Common Mistakes

• Too much text: Slides are for glancing, not reading.
• Focusing on features, not benefits: Investors care about the outcome, not the implementation details.
• Ignoring the "Why Now": If this is such a good idea, why isn't Google doing it? You need a compelling answer (e.g., new technology, regulatory change).

Automating the Process
