    How the World's Top Investors Evaluate Pitches

    Every investor type has distinct criteria. Our AI analyzes your pitch against 10 frameworks, from YC's traction obsession to Family Office risk assessment, giving you a complete picture of how different capital sources will perceive your story.

    Why these ten

    Deckmetric scores every deck against ten frameworks: the proprietary Shepard&Young CVM framework as the headline score, plus nine established venture capital frameworks as benchmarks. Together, they cover the major investor archetypes a founder is likely to pitch: accelerators, seed funds, multi-stage venture, growth and crossover capital, and family offices. Each framework page below explains what that investor type looks for, what kills a deck for them, and how Deckmetric scores it.
