Pitch decks
An investor-ready deck in seven days.
We rebuild the narrative, design fifteen slides around it, and hand over files you can edit yourself. The price is agreed before we start.
The real problem
Most decks fail on order, not aesthetics.
Founders usually arrive convinced they need a designer. More often they need an editor. Any single slide is fine on its own, but the sequence asks an investor to accept the ask before anything has earned it.
So we start with an outline rather than an artboard. What does each slide have to prove? What evidence proves it? What gets cut so the rest has room? Design comes after those answers, not before.
If your narrative is already sound and you only want it made beautiful, say so on the brief. We will skip to design and price it accordingly.
What we usually find
- The problem slide describes a market rather than someone in pain
- Traction sits on slide eleven, behind three slides of product
- Charts rebuilt from spreadsheet screenshots
- Eleven bullets doing the work of one sentence
- No clear ask, or an ask with no use of funds behind it
What you leave with
- A sequence that builds to the ask
- One idea per slide, stated in the headline
- Charts built from your raw numbers
- Speaker notes for every slide
- Files you can edit the night before a meeting
What’s in the deck
The 15-slide structure we build from.
Think of it as a skeleton rather than a straitjacket. We adapt it to your stage, your sector and who you are pitching to, but this is the spine that tends to work.
01–03
Set-up
Title and one-line positioning. The problem, told through one specific customer. Why now: what changed in the world to make this possible.
04–07
The business
Your solution and the wedge. Product shown rather than described. How you make money. Market sized bottom-up instead of a TAM pie chart.
08–11
The evidence
Traction with real charts. Go-to-market and unit economics. Competition framed fairly. Why you win, in a way you can defend.
12–15
The ask
Team, and why this team. Financial projections. The raise, the use of funds and the milestones it buys. Contact and close.
Appendix
The slides you never present but need in the room: cohort detail, pipeline, hiring plan, regulatory notes, model summary.
The one-pager
Included with Investor-Ready. One page that survives being forwarded to a partner who was not in the meeting.
Sample decks
Read a whole deck, not a mood board.
Page through every slide with the arrow keys. All three are design showcases rather than client engagements.

Timeline
Seven days, day by day.
Days 1–2 · Brief
A kick-off call, then we take everything you have and send back a written narrative outline. Nothing gets designed until you approve that.
Days 3–5 · Build
Copy written slide by slide, charts rebuilt from your data, visual design applied. You get the first complete draft.
Day 6 · Revise
Your consolidated feedback, applied. Then a second, tighter round, usually wording and emphasis rather than layout.
Day 7 · Handover
Editable Google Slides and PowerPoint, a print-clean PDF, speaker notes, and a short call about presenting it.

Questions
Pitch deck FAQ.
Editable Google Slides and PowerPoint, plus a compressed PDF for emailing and a print-quality one. If your team works in Keynote or Pitch, say so on the brief and we will deliver there instead.
Extra rounds are $250 each, quoted before we do them. Most projects use both included rounds and stop there. The narrative sign-off at the start is what keeps the count low, because big structural changes get caught while they are still cheap to make.
Yes, before you send anything sensitive. Send us yours, or ask for our standard mutual NDA on the brief form.
No, and be wary of anyone who does. A deck gets you the meeting and keeps the room following your argument. Whether the round closes comes down to your business, your traction and your market. We guarantee the scope, the schedule and the quality of the work.
We design in any language and write in English. For other languages we typeset copy you supply and check that it renders correctly.
