Why this exists

Most decks don't fail on the idea.

They fail on the gaps a founder is too close to see: a cap table nobody can read, traction with no benchmark, an ask with no plan behind it. None of these are fatal on their own. Together, they're why a deck sits unread.

The problem

Founders raising at £1-10m revenue are usually too close to their own deck to see it the way an investor does. They know the business. They don't always know how little of a stranger's attention they're about to get (under two minutes, on average), or what that stranger is silently marking them down for.

The approach

Deck Gap reads your deck the way investors actually do, not the way founders assume (see the methodology), then names the specific gaps holding it back. No generic checklist, every gap tied directly to your deck.

Built by someone who sits on the buy side. I've been in the room evaluating decks and structuring deals, not just advising from outside one, and I've built and run businesses myself, scaling from nothing to real revenue and a large client base, more than once. Deck Gap is built on the same read I'd give a deck privately, made available before you're in the room.

That's the standard this tool is held to: not a generic AI wrapper, a diagnostic shaped by someone who's sat on both sides of the table.

Common questions
Who is Deck Gap for?

Founders raising at roughly £1-10m revenue who are too close to their own deck to see it the way an investor does, preparing for a fundraise and wanting to know specifically what's holding it back before it reaches an investor's inbox.

What does Deck Gap actually check in a deck?

It reads the deck the way research says investors actually read decks (see the methodology), then returns named gaps tied to that specific deck, not a generic checklist item.

Is Deck Gap a broker, funding portal, or investment adviser?

No. Deck Gap is a diagnostic tool. It does not provide financial or investment advice, and it does not introduce, match, or route founders to investors.

How much does it cost to get feedback on my deck?
