Startup Pitch Builder

Turns founder inputs into investor-ready pitch scripts in five formats, then scores the pitch and runs investor roleplay practice.

What it does

  • Intake: 1–2 focused rounds covering what the company does, problem/solution, unique insight, traction, business model, team, and the ask.
  • Two research waves: investor/audience profile and thesis, comparable companies' winning narratives, pitch-aware competitive framing, and a data-backed "why now" thesis.
  • Pitch construction: reorders 8 elements (What You Do → strongest signal → traction → insight → model → market → team → ask) around whatever is genuinely most impressive.
  • Deliverables: pitch-full.md (10-min script with speaker notes), pitch-5min.md, pitch-2min.md (word-for-word), pitch-1min.md (formal + casual elevator), pitch-email.md (cold email, subject lines, follow-up), pitch-appendix.md (top-10 Q&A, objection handling), pitch-deck-outline.md (10–12 slides with takeaway headlines).
  • Verification & scoring: checks cross-format contradictions, traction without timeframes, and unjustified top-down TAM, then produces an 8-dimension scorecard with an investor-readiness verdict.
  • Practice: roleplay as Angel, Seed VC, Series A VC, or Accelerator partner, with pushback and post-session feedback.

Who it's for

  • First-time founders drafting a seed or Series A narrative
  • Teams prepping demo day who need tight 2-minute and 1-minute versions
  • Founders who want to rehearse Q&A and defend known weaknesses before real meetings
  • Accelerator mentors and IR/fundraising consultants

Examples

  1. "Build a seed pitch for our B2B SaaS raising $1.5M" → intake, research, then all five script formats plus a slide outline.
  2. "I only need the 2-minute demo day script" → word-for-word script with pacing and emphasis notes.
  3. "Play a Seed VC and grill me" → 3–5 in-character questions, then a break-character critique of what landed and what didn't.
  4. "Score our pitch" → 8-dimension rubric with a specific fix for every dimension under 7.
