Built by a VC. Every team gets line-by-line feedback from week one, and you see who is ready for demo day.
Feedback is the bottleneck in most programs, and it shows at demo day.
A few experienced people cannot red-pen every deck every week. Line-by-line notes are the first thing to give.
Mentors often see the demo-day deck for the first time the week before. By then there is no time to fix the story.
First-time founders hear "looks great" from friends and teammates. They need someone who has sat on the other side of the table.
A simple rhythm that fits the programs you already run.
Each team builds its pitch and gets its first red pen in the session. Everyone leaves knowing their top fixes.
Teams edit, re-check and watch their scores move. Mentors open any pitch from the dashboard and take the sections that need a human call.
You see which teams are ready before investors arrive, instead of finding out on stage.
A cohort dashboard built for the person running the program, not for the investor.
One table across the cohort, so you see where each team is strong and where it is stuck.
See who is improving week by week and who has not opened their deck.
Teams join with a link. Each team keeps working in its own Pitchkit account.
| Startup | Problem | Market | Traction | Since kickoff |

Example layout
The rubric comes from more than six years of VC dealflow. Pitchkit is used by programs at Aalto University.
The Programs plan covers your team workspace, unlimited cohorts with an invite link, and the cohort dashboard: each startup's latest Red Pen score per section, change since joining, and a read-only view of its pitch. Want to try one cohort first? Ask for a pilot. Individual founders can also start on their own for free, or on Pro at EUR 15 per month.
Tell us about your program and we will set up a pilot.
