$4M Seed Deck

One of our portfolio companies just raised $4 million. Let me walk you through every single slide from their 14 page deck that they used to raise that round. So, firstly, as always, we start up with a really simple cover page. Next, they jump straight into the team. Now, from Avenger Capitalist's perspective, the team is always like the number one thing that you're looking at at early stage, particularly pre-seeded all the way through to series A. Team is number one. So, they include that right at the beginning. They break down who they are, their blurs and put some logos of the companies they've worked in before. Next, jump into the problem. Now you'll start to get the feeling for this deck. It's very, very visual, less worthy. That's because the problem they're solving is quite technical and the number of funds that they'll be speaking to won't actually be technical or like savvy in this environment. So, visually demonstrating it on the page is just a much easier way for someone to understand what they're building and therefore makes their conversations much more productive. Then they jump into the opportunity. Now, this opportunity slide is actually kind of like market drivers. It's where the market is Now they jump into the problem and they do a really good job of summarizing the part of the problem quite quite simply here. It's just one sentence on what the problem is for a user and then they kind of break down how that problem actually plays out in a real environment. Now they talk about the solution again very visual kind of walking you through the different steps in the product and then how it works. This is actually the architecture behind the product all on one page kind of demonstrating how they process data and what the output is on the other side. Slide 8 is again another slide on how it works, very visual here. This is really, really good from an investor's point of view. Next, they talk about the competitors. Again, not many words here. They just explain what other platforms are doing wrong in one sentence, it's quite holistic. And then they break down using the vent diagram, the different platforms they're competing against and where Qrio this company where they sit in that vent diagram. And now they talk about the differentiation, specifically titled why Qrio wins. They break down the three key reasons in really nice kind of sections in this day. Again, it's visual, but they include a bit more context here, some more words which help the reader understand the detail behind their differentiation. Now, one of the juicy slides they talk about traction. They talk about where their ARR is and where they want to be and a bit more about the journey from sort of when they started. They talk about their design partners, their average contract values all on one slide. It's actually a really good visual but also realistic slide which explains enough. And now they talk about their go to market on slide 12. So they talk about top down sales from where they are now their pricing model, I mean how much they're charging and what their pricing model actually is, you know, how they make money. Now they expand a bit more on the market, they basically communicating and showcasing that it's a $3 billion industry or serviceable, attainable market which they think they can get to right now. But then they expand and say the Tam is actually $200 billion and it's growing. And then on the final slide, they highlight they're raising $4 million for 24 months of runway. Now this business has since raised this money, which is great. Um, and this deck is very visual. It's very clean looking. Um not so many words for out it. You've definitely seen decks which which are more worthy. But I think ultimately it depends on the industry that you're building in and how much you're looking to raise, but make sure you save this video for later so you can refer back to it when you're raising and hopefully take some inspiration.
