What is the ideal slide count and order for demo day vs. an investor meeting?
Demo day: aim for 6–8 minutes and 8–10 slides with tight timing (1 slide per 30–60 seconds). Investor meetings (20–30 minutes): 12–18 slides allowing deeper coverage of traction, unit economics, and GTM. Always prepare a 1–2 slide appendix for diligence materials.
What export formats are available and how do I move generated content into PowerPoint or Google Slides?
The generator provides copy-ready slide text and speaker notes formatted for easy paste into PowerPoint or Google Slides. Copy each slide block into your slide editor, then apply your theme or designer handoff. Use the PDF summary for sharing externally.
Who owns the IP of text and images generated from prompts, and how should I track original sources?
IP ownership depends on platform terms and jurisdiction. Best practice: keep a local record of original inputs, label any external sources you relied on, and store final editable files under your company repository. Include a source list in the appendix for claims that rely on third-party data.
How do I verify numbers and market claims in generated slides before sharing with investors?
Treat generated numbers as draft language. Verify each metric against primary sources (CRM exports, GA reports, financial models) and add source citations on the slide or in the appendix. Label any estimates clearly and prepare supporting spreadsheets for diligence.
Can I create multiple localized versions of the same deck for different investor regions?
Yes. Generate regional variants by adapting tone and compliance notes (e.g., GDPR and data residency for EU investors). Tailor the 'ask' and go-to-market slides to reflect local channels, KPIs, and currency or legal considerations.
How do I convert a long product spec into a 10-slide investor narrative?
Start with a one-line pitch, extract three customer pain points, and pick 3–5 metrics that demonstrate traction. Use the generator's 'problem', 'solution', and 'traction' prompts to compress the spec into concise bullets and a single-sentence value proposition per slide.
What should I include in the 'ask' slide and how granular should the use-of-funds be?
State the amount requested, three primary uses of funds (e.g., product development, GTM, hires), and the expected milestones tied to those uses. Avoid excessive granularity—investors want to see priorities and expected outcomes; keep detailed budgets in the appendix or diligence packet.
Is there a recommended way to present sensitive or proprietary metrics without disclosing raw data?
Yes. Use aggregated or percentage-based metrics, redact identifying customer names, and provide ranges instead of exact figures when necessary. Offer to share underlying datasets under an NDA and place a labeled appendix slide indicating how to request more detail.
How can co-founders collaborate on a generated deck and maintain version control?
Use a changelog template to record author, date, and rationale for each major edit. Keep the master slide text in a shared document or repository, and export final slide files for design handoff. For major changes, increment a version number and summarize edits in the changelog.
Are speaker notes and follow-up emails generated alongside slides to help with investor outreach?
Yes. The workflow includes 25–40 word speaker notes per slide and short-form derivatives: a 30-second elevator pitch and a 150-word email intro you can paste into outreach templates.
