Pitch deck builder

A first-round investor spends a couple of minutes on a deck before deciding whether to reply. They are not reading it like a document — they are scanning ten slides for a few specific signals, in a specific order. This builder walks the order Y Combinator teaches seed founders: title, problem, solution, market, business model, traction, competition, team, ask, contact. Fill each in your own words and the deck assembles itself as you type.

On the title slide they want to know, in one line, what you do — no logo-worship, just the promise. On problem and solution they are checking whether you have found a real, painful problem and whether your fix is obviously better, not marginally. On market they want one number they can sanity-check, not a made-up trillion-dollar figure. The business-model slide answers the only question that matters commercially: who pays, how much, how often.

Traction is the slide investors jump to first. Revenue, active users, a pilot, a waitlist, signed letters of intent — anything real that says the market is already voting with its time or money. If you have it, lead with the number; if you do not, be honest and let the team and problem slides carry the weight. A specific $8.3K MRR growing 22% month over month beats “strong early interest” every time.

Team is the other slide that quietly decides it. Early-stage investors are betting on people, so the question behind the team slide is “why you two, specifically, for this problem?” Domain scars, a relevant build, an unfair insight. The competition slide is not about pretending you have none — every real market has incumbents. It is about naming the obvious rival and then stating your wedge in one sentence.

Most free deck tools hand you a locked PDF or a page behind their login. Neither survives contact with a real raise. Investors mark up decks, your co-founder rewrites the ask, and you re-theme the whole thing the night before a meeting. That only works if you own an editable file. This builder exports a genuine PowerPoint .pptx — every slide, heading, bullet, and accent colour is yours to change in PowerPoint, Keynote, or Google Slides.

Skipped a slide? It still exports, carrying an editable prompt where your answer would go, so the file is a working template rather than a hole you have to remember later. The whole thing is built in your browser on your device — nothing you type is uploaded, saved, or seen by anyone. Refresh the page and it is gone.

A deck opens the meeting; the plan wins it. The moment an investor is interested, the questions get harder: what are the unit economics behind that price, where does the traction curve come from, what exactly does the raise buy month by month. Those answers live in a business plan and a financial model, not on a slide.

That is the part SoGood builds for your specific idea — the projections behind your ask, the go-to-market behind your traction slide, the roadmap behind your solution. Export the deck here to open the door, then let your AI co-founder write the plan standing behind it.
