What we deliver in a fundraising deck

• Clear thesis: problem framing, category definition, and timing rationale.

• Product and traction: crisp demo storytelling, evidence of pull, key KPIs.

• Market and moat: TAM/SAM/SOM framing, defensibility, and ecosystem fit.

• Business model and GTM: acquisition loops, unit economics, and paths to scale.

• Roadmap and team: near‑term milestones, use of funds, hiring plan, and executive credibility.

• Competitive story: differentiated wedge and why you win now.

• The ask: round size, instrument, valuation guidance, and allocation plan.

Why founders choose Zypsy for pitch decks

• Design that moves markets: We ship investor‑grade brands, websites, product visuals, and storytelling as a single system, so the deck, site, and product demo reinforce one another. (Capabilities)

• Cash plus design support: Our venture fund, Zypsy Capital, invests $50K–$250K with a 2–3 week process and can pair capital with hands‑on deck support.

• Venture ecosystem credibility: Since 2018, we’ve launched 40+ brands, with clients reporting $375M+ raised and >$2B in valuation gains, including companies backed by Andreessen Horowitz and Sequoia. (About)
