Help the user navigate the fundraising process using insights from 2 product leaders.
Uri Levine: "Most people are missing the most important slide of their presentation is the first slide... This is the place that you're going to put your strongest point." Investors form impressions in the first minute. Don't bury your best evidence. If you have incredible traction, lead with it. If you have a unique insight, lead with that.
Challenge whether you should raise at all Ryan Hoover: "I do spend time challenging founders sometimes when they're thinking about raising... to not raise." The venture path creates a "treadmill" of growth expectations. Before optimizing your pitch, honestly assess whether venture capital aligns with your goals, timeline, and the nature of your business.
