What is Pitchgrade?
PitchGrade is an AI-powered platform that helps entrepreneurs, founders, and analysts create, evaluate, and improve pitch decks for fundraising. The tool scores pitch decks across 6 dimensions, provides structured feedback with actionable suggestions on every slide, and can rewrite decks based on AI-generated recommendations. Users can upload their deck as text or PDF/PPTX files, and the AI analyzes the content to improve clarity, persuasion, and investor-readiness.
Beyond pitch deck evaluation, PitchGrade offers comprehensive business research capabilities. The platform includes an AI Research Analyst for asking questions about public companies using real-time financial data from Yahoo Finance and SEC EDGAR filings. The new Research Agent is an autonomous tool that builds DCF models, pulls SEC filings, runs peer comparisons, and writes investment theses automatically. Additional features include investor matching with 20+ top investors like Sequoia, a16z, and YC, a slide generator that creates styled PPTX decks from prompts, live financial data access, and company comparison tools for up to 4 companies side by side.
PitchGrade supports over 180 languages and has reviewed 10,000+ decks while analyzing 4,000+ companies. It is ideal for first-time founders, accelerator applicants, students building investor presentations, analysts conducting financial research, and any entrepreneur looking to improve their fundraising pitch. The platform does not focus on slide design but strengthens the content and messaging of pitch decks.
