The business model comes up shortClosely related to the previous point: Pricing is one side of the business model, but there are many more parts to the puzzle.
The business model slide is very light on details, and the details that are there are a little confusing.

There’s a big difference between a “solution” and a “product” slide.
The biggest problem with the Xpanceo deck isn’t what is in there, but rather what isn’t.
The market sizing fallacyWhen assessing the potential market size for Xpanceo’s contact lenses, it’s crucial to differentiate the nature of the product from traditional contact lenses.

The left-hand side of the slide has too much info (why are funding, product and customers on the team slide?)
Three things that Protecto could have improvedPitch deck design isn’t usually that important, but the design of this deck is particularly bad.
These case studies aren’t case studiesIn a 14-slide deck, Protecto wastes slide 4 as an interstitial (it just says “our platform”).

Twenty-two slides might seem like too many (the optimal length for a slide deck is around 16 slides these days), but there are some interstitial slides and an appendix in this one, and those don’t really count.
This team slide came as a bit of a surprise:Putting this slide at the end of the deck makes me wonder about the seriousness of this startup.
If it has five business units and 70+ team members, it throws the rest of the deck out of whack.
On slide 12, the company noted it had $7.5 million worth of revenue from just its case study clients.

Startups typically operate under tight budget constraints, and spending significant time and money on pitch deck design may not be the best use of limited resources.
Your mileage may vary, but your pitch deck does need to be machine-readable.
For reference, my AI-powered pitch deck tool gave this deck a 16.9% chance at raising funding.

But it’s interesting to see Doola take a different tack to arrive at a potential market size of $4.5 billion per year.
As I mentioned earlier, there’s a vast amount of information missing from this pitch deck.
So much, in fact, that it is essentially useless as a traditional pitch deck.
In the rest of this teardown, we’ll look at three things Doola could have improved or done differently, along with its full pitch deck!
This week, we’re taking a look at a pitch deck from Rypplzz (pronounced “ripples”), a spatial technology startup that recently raised $3 million.
As a rule, a pitch deck should never exceed 20MB because many email servers don’t like big attachments.
While this slide explains what the product is and its capabilities, it falls short of being a comprehensive product slide.
Enhancing a product slide with these details can elevate the pitch and make it more compelling.

This week’s Pitch Deck Teardown comes to you from the PCB-laden confines of CES in Las Vegas.
Today, we’re looking at the slide deck that video analytics firm Qortex used to raise a $10 million seed round.
To be honest, I’m a little surprised the company managed to raise money at all with this pitch deck, but the fact that it did manage to raise $10 million is a good reminder that the deck is only a part of the puzzle.
In the rest of this teardown, we’ll take a look at three things Qortex could have improved or done differently, along with its full pitch deck!
Three things that could be improvedAbove, I noted the glaring absence of several key slides that investors usually like to see in a pitch deck.
Happy New Year, and welcome to the 78th installment of Pitch Deck Teardown!
This week, we are taking a closer look at Pepper Bio‘s seed pitch deck that landed the company $6.5 million.
Unlike CancerVax (which I ripped apart in a previous teardown for being completely unbelievable), Pepper Bio has a strong team and a lot of promise.
In a world that’s often laden with deeply technical language, Pepper Bio sets itself apart for a moment.
