The challenge

A first-time HealthTech founder had a defensible product, real early traction, and no investor deck she was willing to send. She had 10 minutes with each investor and needed a pre-seed pitch deck that could survive rapid-fire questions — a clear problem statement, a credible TAM, a business model an investor could underwrite, and a team slide that made the round feel inevitable.

Before
  • A 22-slide draft written like an internal product overview — feature-by-feature, no clear problem framing.
  • Market slide showed a $180B industry figure with no citation and no addressable subset.
  • Business model buried on slide 17 as a paragraph of body copy.
  • No visual system — mixed fonts, off-brand colors, stock icons pasted from three different sets.
After
  • 13 slides, one idea per slide, opening on a sharp problem statement grounded in a specific patient workflow.
  • $4.2B addressable market with sourced sizing methodology (top-down + bottom-up sanity check).
  • Business model on slide 6 as a two-axis unit-economics visual — LTV, CAC, gross margin at a glance.
  • One consistent visual system: brand navy + teal, disciplined type hierarchy, custom iconography built to match.

The approach

Discovery-first narrative

A 45-minute discovery call to pull out the founder's actual point of view — then structured into a problem → solution → why-now → traction → ask arc, not a feature tour.

Copy before design

Every slide's headline written to stand alone. If the investor only reads titles, the deck still tells the story.

Investor-grade data viz

TAM/SAM/SOM, unit economics, and traction cohorts built as native charts — editable, sourced, and readable at a glance on a laptop screen.

Native, editable handoff

Delivered in PowerPoint with no flattened graphics — the founder could update numbers before each investor meeting without breaking the design.

Slides — down from a 22-slide draft

Jade turned a messy draft into a deck I was actually proud to send. Investors kept mentioning how clean and easy to follow it was — I stopped dreading pitch calls.
