Write a complete 15-slide pitch deck narrative
River's Pitch Deck Writer creates complete 15-slide text-heavy deck narratives ready to design. You answer 10 core questions about your startup, and the AI writes full text for every slide including problem, solution, traction, market, business model, competition, team, and ask. This gives you the narrative foundation that designers or tools like Pitch or Canva can turn into beautiful slides. Whether you're raising pre-seed or seed, this tool structures your story for maximum investor impact.
Unlike slide-by-slide generators, we create a cohesive narrative that flows logically from problem through ask. The AI structures the classic investor deck arc, uses specific numbers and proof points throughout, keeps slides focused (one concept per slide), writes in bullet points ready to design, and maintains the punchy, confident tone investors expect. You get a complete deck narrative, not random slides that don't connect.
This tool is perfect for pre-seed and seed founders creating first decks, technical founders who struggle with storytelling, international founders navigating pitch conventions, or anyone who has the facts but can't structure them into a compelling narrative. If you know your metrics but don't know how to tell your story, this tool helps. Use it when you need a complete deck foundation that you can refine and design.
What Makes Pitch Decks Win Meetings
Winning pitch decks tell a clear story with a logical flow. The best decks start with a problem investors immediately understand, show a solution that's obviously better, prove traction with specific metrics, demonstrate massive market opportunity, explain a clear path to revenue, position against competition honestly, and showcase a team that can execute. Weak decks either bury the lead, lack traction proof, stay vague about business model, or fail to show why this team wins. Investors see hundreds of decks. Make yours clear, compelling, and credible.
Successful deck structure follows a proven 15-slide arc. Slides 1-3 hook with problem and solution. Slides 4-6 prove it with traction and validation. Slides 7-9 show the opportunity (market, business model, competition). Slides 10-12 prove you can win (unfair advantage, roadmap, team). Slides 13-15 make the ask (raise amount, use of funds, vision). This progression builds investor confidence systematically. Random slide order confuses. Logical flow persuades.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this just text or does it create actual designed slides?
Text only. This tool writes the complete narrative and content for all 15 slides in text format with bullet points. You then copy this into Pitch, Canva, PowerPoint, or work with a designer to create visual slides. Think of this as the scriptwriting phase. It's actually better to separate content from design because you can refine the narrative before spending time on visuals. Many founders waste hours on design before their story is right. Get the content perfect first, then make it beautiful.
What if I don't have answers to all 10 questions yet?
Answer what you can and note what's missing. The AI will work with incomplete information but flag gaps. If you don't have traction yet, say so and focus on problem, solution, and team. If market size is unclear, provide your best estimate. Honest gaps are better than made-up numbers. However, if you're missing most questions (no solution, no team, no business model), you're too early for a pitch deck. Build more first. You need at least problem, solution, basic traction or validation, and team to have a fundable story.
How long should each slide's text be?
3-5 bullets per slide, each bullet being 1-2 lines maximum. Slides are visual mediums. Dense text slides lose audiences. The AI writes punchy bullets that you'll speak to, not paragraphs to read. Your actual pitch should be 80% what you say, 20% what's on slides. Slides provide structure and key points. You provide detail and passion verbally. If slides have full paragraphs, you're doing it wrong. Keep slides sparse. Tell the rich story verbally.
Can I customize the 15-slide structure or is it fixed?
The 15-slide structure is the proven standard for pre-seed/seed decks, but you can adapt after generation. Some founders add slides (customer testimonials, product demo screenshots). Others combine slides (competition and advantage on one slide). The AI gives you the standard structure that works for 90% of startups. Customize based on your specific strengths. If you have incredible traction, add a slide. If your team is exceptional, expand that section. Use the structure as foundation, not prison.
Should this deck work for cold emails or just meetings?
This is a meeting deck, not a cold outreach deck. Meeting decks are 15 slides with full story. Email decks should be 5-7 slides maximum highlighting only the strongest points (problem, solution, traction, ask). Use this full deck for in-person or Zoom pitches where you present. Create a shorter version for cold outreach. Many founders make the mistake of sending 15-slide decks cold. Investors won't read them. Get the meeting first with a short teaser, then use this full deck in the meeting.
