Draft a 10-12 slide investor narrative before designing presentation slides.
This free Pitch Deck generator helps you draft a compelling 10-to-12-slide investor narrative before you open any presentation software. It runs entirely in your browser with no login required, so you can focus on shaping your story and key data points before committing to visual design.
A pitch deck is a brief presentation that provides investors with an overview of your business. It typically covers the problem you solve, your solution, market opportunity, business model, traction, team credentials, and funding ask. Pitch decks are used during fundraising meetings, demo days, and accelerator applications to communicate your venture's potential in a concise, visually engaging format. The narrative flow of each slide matters as much as the data it contains.
Enter your company name and a tagline or focus statement for the pitch. The tool guides you through slide-by-slide sections covering problem, solution, market size, product, business model, traction, team, financials, and the ask. Write the talking points for each slide, preview the assembled narrative in real time, then copy it to your clipboard or download it as a text file. Use this draft as the foundation when you move into your preferred slide design tool.
The standard investor pitch deck runs between 10 and 15 slides. The most widely cited benchmark is the Sequoia Capital format, which covers 10 core slides: company purpose, problem, solution, why now, market size, product, business model, team, financials, and the ask. Demo Day pitches at accelerators are often capped at 8 to 10 slides for a strict 3-to-5-minute slot. Fundraising pitches sent by email can extend to 15 slides if the additional slides add meaningful substance. Avoid padding with slides that restate earlier content — if a slide does not add a new piece of information or create a new emotional beat in the story, cut it. Investors review dozens of decks; brevity is a competitive advantage.
Yes, but with appropriate caveats. Investors expect to see financial projections covering at least three years — revenue, cost of goods sold, gross margin, operating expenses, and net profit or loss. For early-stage startups without revenue history, projections are necessarily speculative, and investors know this. What they are evaluating is not whether your numbers are correct but whether your assumptions are coherent and whether you understand the unit economics of your business. Label projections clearly as estimates, show the key assumptions underlying each line, and be prepared to walk through them in a meeting. Including a clear monthly burn rate and runway figure helps investors quickly assess how urgently you need the funding.
