What is this tool?

Two very different products share this name. At $7 a month billed yearly you are buying deck templates, AI assistance, view tracking and a cap-table tool — cheap, and squarely aimed at a founder preparing to raise. At $99 a month you are buying people: monthly time with a writing team and a modelling team, plus an investor finder and a call with the CEO. Decide which of those you actually want, because the gap between them is not a feature list.

Read full overview

Two plans here, and they are not the same kind of product. Starter at $7 a month billed yearly is software: an AI deck builder, a hundred-odd pitch-deck templates, unlimited reviews of your own deck, view tracking on what you send, and a cap-table tool. That is a low price for a well-scoped job, and the scope is narrow on purpose — these are decks for raising money, with the slide order and the arguments already shaped.

Accelerate at $99 a month is a service with software attached. The extra buys expert time: two half-hour sessions a month, one on the deck and one on the numbers, a call with the company's chief executive, and an investor finder with CRM tools for running the raise itself. Whether that is expensive depends entirely on what an hour of that help is worth to you against the alternative, which for most first-time founders is asking other founders. It is not a feature upgrade and should not be evaluated as one.

The free tier is unusual in a useful way: the vendor calls it a trial, then says no card is needed and no clock is running, which makes it a standing way to see the builder before committing. The pricing page is less helpful: it shows Starter at its yearly rate and Accelerate at its monthly one, with each alternative cycle left blank — so if you want the other, get the figure before you subscribe rather than after.

Is this right for you?

Quick fit check against how you actually work.

Choose this if
  • You are building a pitch deck specifically to raise money, rather than a presentation in general
  • You would rather start from a startup-shaped structure than from an empty slide
  • You want to know which investors opened the deck you sent
  • You are preparing a cap table at the same time as the deck
  • You want expert help on the deck and the model monthly, which is what the upper tier is for
Consider alternatives if
  • You make presentations of every kind: this is pitch-deck software, and its templates and reviews are shaped for one audience
  • You need a predictable figure before choosing how to be billed, since one billing state per plan is left blank
  • You want the expert sessions without the subscription, because they are bundled into the $99 tier rather than sold separately
  • Your design requirements are specific: the product is built around speed through templates rather than fine control

Key features

What you can actually do with this tool.

Templates built for raising, not for presenting

More than a hundred templates shaped as startup pitch decks — the slide order and the arguments are the product, not the visual theme. That is why this is worth considering over a general presentation tool for one specific job and not for any other.

View tracking on the deck you send

You can see when a shared deck is opened. In a fundraise that is the difference between wondering whether an investor read it and knowing they did, which changes when you follow up and whom you chase.

Unlimited AI reviews of your own deck

The deck can be reviewed as often as you like rather than a set number of times, which suits the way a deck is actually made — twenty revisions before a meeting, not one.

A cap table alongside the deck

Ownership structure sits in the same product as the pitch. For an early raise those two documents are prepared together and usually live in different tools, so keeping them in one place is a small but real saving.

Accelerate buys time with people

A monthly half-hour with a deck-writing team and another with a financial-modelling team, plus a strategy call with the CEO. At $99 a month that is the actual purchase; the software is what comes with it.

Investor finder and CRM on the upper tier

Accelerate adds tooling for tracking the raise itself — finding investors and managing the pipeline — which places it alongside your fundraising process rather than only your deck.

Frequently asked

Common questions about this tool, answered.

Is this a presentation tool or something else?

It is pitch-deck software. The templates, the AI reviews and the view tracking are all built around one situation — a founder sending a deck to investors — and the cap-table tool and financial-modelling bootcamp sit alongside for the same reason. For a sales presentation, a conference talk or an internal update, a general presentation tool will serve you better, because nothing here is shaped for those.

What does the $99 plan get me that $7 does not?

People. Accelerate includes one 30-minute session a month with the pitch-deck writing team and another with the financial-modelling team, a strategy call with the CEO, an investor finder with CRM tools, and a forecasting tool. Everything in the cheaper plan is included, but the reason to take it is the expert time rather than the software, so weigh it against what that help would otherwise cost you.

Can I use it without paying?

Yes, within limits. The vendor offers access to basic features with no credit card required, and states explicitly that it is not time-limited — so it behaves as a standing free tier rather than a countdown. It is the sensible way to see whether the template structure suits the story you are telling before you commit to a year of Starter.
