Angel pitch deck

How to write a pitch deck angels actually read and fund.

What makes angel rounds different

Angel investors move fast. They don't sit on calls or wait for market reports. They bet on people, momentum, and clarity.

You're not pitching a full VC fund here. You're proving that you're worth backing now.

What they want:

  • Fast signal that you know what you're building
  • A believable shot at real upside
  • A plan that won't get stuck in the idea graveyard

Skip the hype. Show direction and potential. Most importantly: show you.

What angels expect to see

Most angels don't want 25 slides. They want clear answers. Include these:

1
Executive Summary– 2–3 sentence overview
2
Problem– A real pain point, not a trend
3
Solution– How your approach works (and why it's not generic)
4
Product– Screens, features, demo flow
5
Market– Who buys this and how big is the pie?
6
Go to Market– Early channels, how you'll find customers
7
Traction– Signals, not excuses. Early user numbers or learnings.
8
Team– Who's building this and why you're the right people
9
Vision– Where this can realistically go
10
Ask– How much you're raising and what for

What angels say no to

Vagueness
"We'll figure it out"
Fake TAMs
Slides with no user evidence
Teams without skin in the game

Founders often over-polish the deck but skip the actual proof. Don't be that founder.

FAQs

Can I send a Notion doc instead of a deck?

Yes, if it answers the same questions. Don't hide behind format. Clarity is what matters.

Do I need financial projections at angel?

No, but you need a believable use of funds and short-term goals.

What if I'm raising from friends and angels together?

Still give them a deck. Even if they trust you, they want to know what you're doing.
