For founders · from idea to growth

Your pitch deck, read the way an investor reads it.

Zenpitch checks your deck against the criteria investors decide by, weighted for your stage. You see what works and what is missing, turn it into a better deck and share it with investors who fit you.

  • Free pre-analysis
  • Never shared with investors
  • Deleted after 90 days without an account

Four steps to your round

Each step builds on the one before, none is required. You decide how far you go.

1

Analysis

The pre-analysis arrives by email within minutes: a score from 0 to 100, overall impression, strengths and weaknesses, each with its slide. The full analysis adds a concrete tip for every finding and the whole analysis as a PDF.

Pre-analysis free · full analysis from Starter
2

Studio

From your deck, the analysis and your material, Zenpitch builds a new deck in HTML with motion, on desktop and on mobile. You say in the chat what you want and edit texts yourself. If you like, you keep your original as it is.

Data room

Business plan, financial plan, cap table and CVs next to the deck, each file shared with specific links. Optionally with a password and an NDA that every reader confirms before opening.

Investors

Share your deck with links of your own and see who reads which slide for how long. Send it to investors whose thesis fits your deck. If you like, it appears under Active pitches.

What a deck needs today

Investors read fast and often on the go. These rules are part of every analysis and every deck from the studio.

Your first slide gets more than twice the attention of any other. After that, about 15 seconds per slide.

Source: Papermark

How Zenpitch does it: The first slide alone sparks interest: company, one sentence on what it solves for whom, the strongest proof. In the studio it is the strongest slide.

Top-performing decks average 13 slides. Fewer slides, more impact.

Source: Mean CEO

How Zenpitch does it: The main part has 10 to 15 slides, the most important first. Anything beyond goes into the appendix behind it, nothing is lost.

A third of investors read your deck on mobile. Is yours built for it?

Source: Storydoc

How Zenpitch does it: Every deck from the studio has two views from the same slides: 16:9 on desktop, portrait like a story on mobile.

The team slide is the most-read slide. Show who you are.

Source: Papermark

How Zenpitch does it: The analysis checks whether your team shows why you of all people can do this. The studio builds a team slide that carries it.

Only 57% of decks tell investors what to do next. Decks with a clear call to action get more meetings.

Source: Storydoc

How Zenpitch does it: At the end comes the ask with amount, use of funds, next step and contact. The analysis tells you what is missing.

Only 22% of decks get read to the last slide. Put your story up front.

Source: Storydoc

How Zenpitch does it: When you share, you see for every reader how far they get and where they get stuck.

Your deck stays your deck

No human reads along

A language model writes the analysis by fixed rules. Nobody at Shio Ventures reads your deck.

No deal pipeline

Submitted decks feed into no investment decision and never reach Shio Ventures as a deal.

Deleted when you want

We share your deck with no one, only you can share it. Without an account we delete everything after 90 days, with an account whenever you like.

Questions and answers

Why is sharing unlimited but analyses are not?

A link costs us almost nothing, so there is no limit on links, readers or recipients. Every analysis, every studio version and every image is computed by an AI model. That is why they come in fixed quotas, and you buy more with a click.

What happens when my quota is used up?

Zenpitch asks and names the price from “More when you need more”. Nothing continues automatically. At the end of the month the quota starts again, unused units expire.

Why a subscription and not a one-off price?

Because a deck is not finished in a day. You pay while you work on it and share it. Paying yearly gives you two months free.

Why do Fundraising and Scale start with three months?

Because most of the work on a deck happens in the first weeks. You pay the first three months at once (€149 or €349) and can use the studio versions of the quarter right away. After that the plan continues monthly and you can cancel at any time.

What happens to my links if I cancel?

Nothing. Deck and links stay online and keep counting views. Paid features such as reading time per slide or NDA pause until you have a plan again. What was read in the meantime you then see retroactively.

Can I switch at any time?

Yes. An upgrade applies immediately, charged pro rata. A downgrade applies from the next period.

All prices net plus VAT. An invoice with every payment, payment via Stripe, no card details at Zenpitch.

Frequently asked questions

What does Zenpitch cost?

The pre-analysis, the account with all findings and sharing are free in the Free plan. The full analysis with tips and PDF comes from Starter, new versions in the studio from Fundraising. All plans are listed under Pricing.

Which formats can I upload?

PDF, PowerPoint (PPTX, PPT), Keynote and HTML up to 50 MB, or a link from DocSend, Papermark, Google Drive or Slides, Pitch and Notion, shared without a password.

Which stage is the analysis for?

Any, from idea to growth: series C, pre-IPO and growth financing, also with secondaries. How much an area counts depends on the stage you pick when uploading. A seed deck is not measured against the standards of a Series B.

How long does the pre-analysis take?

Usually a few minutes. You confirm your email address, then the pre-analysis arrives by email, and all findings are in your account afterwards.

How often can I have my deck checked?

As often as you like, the pre-analysis stays free. For a new version of your deck, simply upload it again.

Does Shio Ventures see my deck?

No. Zenpitch is kept apart from the investment business of Shio Ventures, submitted decks never reach it as a deal.

Clarity before you pitch.

The pre-analysis is free and in your inbox within minutes.
