Fix Your Pitch Deck's Slide Order
Strong slides can still lose investors when they arrive in the wrong order. Deckmetric scores your deck's flow against a recommended investor-facing structure and tells you which slides to move and why.
Upload your deck. Deckmetric detects the slide types you have, lays your sequence next to a recommended investor-facing sequence, and produces specific position swaps with the current slot, recommended slot, and the reasoning behind each move.
Current order vs recommended order
Your deck's actual slide sequence shown next to the recommended sequence so you can see the gap at a glance, no guessing.
Position-swap suggestions
Concrete moves like 'Move your Team slide from position 2 to position 10, investors want to validate the metric before they validate the team.' Every swap names the slide, the current position, the recommended position, and the reason.
A structure score out of 10
A single number for how well your deck flows, so you can re-score after editing and see whether the moves actually helped.
An order verdict
One paragraph in plain English summarizing what's working, what isn't, and which two or three moves would change the most.
The recommended investor-facing order, inline
We show the standard problem → solution → market → traction → team → ask flow alongside your deck so each recommendation has a clear reference point.

Team slide leads the deck
Investors are pattern-matching the problem and market in the first 90 seconds. Putting team that early forces them to evaluate people before they understand what the people are working on. Move it after traction so the team slide answers 'why are these the right people for this?'
Ask buried at slide 7
The ask should land after traction, business model, and use of funds. At slide 7 it lands before the data that would justify the number, so the number reads as random.
Why this order works
The recommended sequence optimizes for the investor's cognitive flow: understand the problem, get excited about the solution, validate with data, then connect with the team.
