You have the metrics. You have the problem, the solution, the market size, the team bios. But when you stare at a blank deck, none of it sounds like a story an investor would back. The numbers feel flat, the order feels wrong, and the passion doesn't make it past the opening slide.
The Investor Pitch Narrative Builder turns those scattered inputs into a slide-by-slide script that flows like a professional pitch.
Quick scan
- Best for: Founders preparing a seed or Series A round
- Output: A complete 10–12 slide pitch narrative with spoken script, data hooks, and transitions
- Inputs: Company summary, problem, solution, market data, traction, team bios, funding ask
- Time saved: Hours of re‑ordering bullet points and rewriting speaker notes
- Main caveat: You must provide accurate data – the skill does not invent numbers
What it does
The skill guides Claude to structure your fundraising story using a proven investor arc. It starts by collecting your raw data, then maps a narrative around a hook, pain point, solution, market opportunity, traction, team, and ask. For each slide, it writes a spoken script, integrates your metrics naturally, and adds persuasive rhythms so your numbers land emotionally.
You get a document ready to paste into your presentation notes, with each slide clearly labeled, key data points highlighted, and transitions that keep the audience leaning in.
When to use it
- You’re building a pitch from scratch and need a narrative backbone
- Your current deck feels like a bullet list of achievements without a thread
- You’re pitching different audiences and need to swap in tailored data points quickly
- You want to ensure a logical, investor‑tested flow before designing slides
When not to use it
- You already have a polished, investor‑loved narrative and only need light editing
- You lack any real traction or market data (the output will be weak without substance)
- The pitch is for a grant, loan, or nonprofit context that follows a different evaluation framework
How to install and use
- Download the skill ZIP from this page.
- In Claude, follow your usual method for loading a custom skill, or simply paste the SKILL.md instructions into a new chat.
- Start the conversation with a command like: "Build an investor pitch narrative from my startup data and fundraising goals."
- The skill will prompt you for the required inputs (problem, solution, market, traction, team, ask). Answer with bullet points, paragraphs, or a mix.
- Review the generated narrative arc and slide scripts. Ask for changes per slide until you’re satisfied.
A concrete example
Input (summary): Company: EcoPack – compostable packaging from algae. Problem: $20B of plastic waste in ecommerce, 80% of consumers want sustainable packaging but only 5% get it. Solution: Algae-based materials that biodegrade in 6 months, cost 20% less than plastic. Market: $15B TAM, 12% CAGR. Traction: $500K in LOIs, pilot with a major subscription box company, 30% conversion from sample sends. Team: Materials scientist founder, ex‑Amazon operations CTO, Sequoia advisor. Ask: $2M seed to scale production, expand sales, hit $1M ARR in 18 months.
Output (excerpt): Slide 1 – Title Slide "Every time you open an ecommerce package, you’re holding a piece of a problem that’s costing the industry $20 billion a year. I’m [Founder], and at EcoPack, we’ve developed packaging that’s better for the planet – and 20% cheaper than plastic."
Slide 2 – The Problem "80% of consumers want sustainable packaging. But only 5% get it. That gap is a $20 billion inefficiency, and it’s also a climate emergency. Here’s what happens when an ecommerce brand tries to change it today…"
(Full script continues through market, traction, team, and ask, with transitions.)
Limitations
- No revenue? No problem – but be honest. The skill frames early traction through pilots, waitlists, or letters of intent. If you fabricate numbers, the narrative will sound hollow.
- It doesn’t design slides. This is a narrative generator, not a design tool. You’ll still need to create visuals.
- Investor-fit depends on your audience. The script uses a general VC-friendly arc. For a very specialized fund (deep tech, biotech), you may need to adjust the emphasis.
