Turn your notes into a seed pitch deck
DeckDash turns a founder's rough notes into a finished seed or pre-seed pitch deck: 10 to 14 designed slides as editable PowerPoint plus PDF, in 24 to 48 hours, from $20. If you need a pitch deck from notes, send your bullet points, traction numbers and the amount you're raising, and we build the storyline and the slides.

Typical slide outline
- Title + one-liner: Company name and one sentence: what you do, for whom.
- Problem: The painful, specific problem, ideally with one real example.
- Solution: What you built and how it removes the problem.
- Why now: What changed (technology, regulation, behaviour) that makes this possible today.
- Market: A bottom-up market estimate built from your own numbers: buyers × price.
- Product: Screenshots or a simple flow of how it works.
- Business model: Who pays, how much, how often.
- Traction: Revenue, users, pilots, waitlist, letters of intent: only what you actually have.
- Competition: An honest map of alternatives and why you win.
- Go-to-market: How you reach the first 100 customers.
- Team: Why these people can win this market.
- The ask: How much you're raising and what it gets you to (milestones, runway).
How many slides?
A seed or pre-seed deck usually runs 10 to 14 main slides, with extra detail (financial model summary, detailed roadmap, customer pipeline) moved to an appendix. A deck you email ahead of a meeting can carry a bit more text than one you present live. Basic covers up to 8 slides, Standard up to 15, and Premium up to 25 with speaker notes and an appendix.
What to send us
- Your notes, an old deck or a one-page summary
- The round: amount, instrument if known (SAFE, priced), and what the money is for
- Real traction numbers with dates (revenue, users, pilots)
- Team: names, roles, one line of relevant background each
- Logo and brand colours (Standard and Premium)
- Product screenshots, if you have them
Common mistakes we fix
- A top-down market slide ("if we get 1% of a huge market") instead of a bottom-up estimate
- Burying traction at slide 11 when it's your strongest argument
- No clear ask, or an ask with no milestones attached
- Paragraphs of text that you end up reading aloud
- Numbers that don't match between slides (e.g. the traction and the financials)
Which tier fits
Most seed decks fit Standard ($45, up to 15 slides, 24h) because traction and market slides need real charts. Choose Premium ($90) if you want speaker notes for the pitch meeting, an appendix and a storyline rewrite.

Questions about this deck type
Will you write my pitch for me?
We structure and write slide copy from your notes, and we'll rewrite the storyline on Premium. We never invent traction, market sizes or customers. Missing numbers become marked [placeholder]s for you to fill.
Do you give fundraising advice?
No. We build the deck; we don't give investment, legal or valuation advice.
Can investors edit or comment on the file?
Yes. It's a normal .pptx; you can also import it into Google Slides to share with comment access.
