Score your pitch deck in about a minute
Upload a PDF and see a score out of 100, eight dimension scores with evidence from your own slides, and the three fixes that matter most. The rubric is public, so you can check every point.
The rubric, in full
Eight dimensions, each scored 0 to 5 against written anchors. Your stage sets how many of the 80 judged points each dimension carries. Another 20 points come from the deterministic checks below.
| Dimension | A 5 needs | A 3 needs | Points by stage |
|---|---|---|---|
| Problem clarity | As 4, and the deck shows why the current alternatives fail this customer. | A specific customer and pain, with one concrete example, quote or number. | Pre-seed: 14Seed: 10Series A: 6 |
| Solution and product evidence | As 4, plus a defensible advantage (patent, proprietary data, network effect, exclusive distribution) backed by evidence. | The product is shown (screenshot, photo, demo or step-by-step workflow) and tied to the stated problem. | Pre-seed: 10Seed: 10Series A: 8 |
| Market and why now | As 4, with the why-now backed by data and a path from the first segment to a larger market. | A size for the target segment (sourced or bottom-up) and a stated why-now. | Pre-seed: 10Seed: 10Series A: 10 |
| Business model | As 4, with measured (not projected) unit economics and a stated path to scale. | Price and who pays, plus at least one unit-economics figure (gross margin, CAC, LTV, payback, revenue per customer). | Pre-seed: 6Seed: 13Series A: 13 |
| Traction and evidence quality | Sustained growth in revenue or retention with cohort or unit detail and a verifiable source. | Dated figures of real usage or revenue, or named paying customers or pilots. | Pre-seed: 6Seed: 18Series A: 22 |
| Team | As 4, with a track record that directly de-risks this plan (built and scaled a similar product or company). | Relevant experience (domain, technical or commercial: employer, years, degree) stated for each founder. | Pre-seed: 18Seed: 9Series A: 8 |
| Ask and use of funds | As 4, with milestones tied to the next round's metrics, or the round's terms or committed investors. | An amount and a use-of-funds breakdown in percentages or amounts. | Pre-seed: 8Seed: 5Series A: 8 |
| Design and readability | As 4, and the deck reads without a presenter: every slide is understood in a few seconds. | Consistent styling, one main idea on most slides, legible charts; at most two overloaded slides. | Pre-seed: 8Seed: 5Series A: 5 |

Deterministic checks (20 points)
Page count
10 to 20 pages for a deck sent to be read (10 to 14 to present live): full points inside 10-20, none outside.
4 points
Words per slide
Median words per slide at most 50: full points; at most 75: half; above: none.
4 points
Text density
Share of slides over 100 words: at most 10% full points, at most 25% half, above none.
3 points
Required sections
Problem, solution, market, business model, traction, team and ask, each found by keyword in English or Turkish: points in proportion to the sections found.
4 points
Market figures with a source
Every slide that sizes a market (a market word next to a money amount or a percentage) also names a source or links one: points in proportion to the sourced slides, full points when no slide sizes a market.
3 points
Contact details
An e-mail address, website or phone number anywhere in the deck.

How we score
Three independent controllers read your deck, and none of them can quote a slide that is not there.
Visual judge
A multimodal model looks at the PDF pages as a founder or investor would, and scores the eight dimensions against the anchors.
Text judge
A second model reads only the extracted text and scores the story dimensions. If the two judges differ by more than 2 points on a dimension, that dimension is marked low confidence and the range widens.
Deterministic checks
Plain code counts pages and words per slide, looks for the required sections and checks that market figures name a source. No model, same answer every time.
Median of 3 runs
Every dimension is scored three times and the median counts, so one odd run cannot move your score.
Evidence quotes
Each score cites a quote and a slide number. We check the quote against that slide's text, and a score without evidence is flagged.
What the benchmarks say
Two outside sources shaped the rubric. We cite them as published and do not add numbers of our own.
DocSend, 2020 (pre-seed decks)
- Investors reviewed a deck for under 3 minutes on average.
- Funded decks held attention for about 4 minutes, against about 1:30 for unfunded decks.
- A typical deck ran to about 20 pages.
- A typical slide held about 50 words.

Y Combinator, 2018
- The story the deck tells has to be clear.
- Investors look hard at the founders.
- Evidence of demand counts for more than a forecast.
- Show where the company will be a year from now.

We use these as reference points for the page-count and words-per-slide checks, not as a promise about funding.
Privacy
Anonymous PDFs and their scores are deleted after 30 days. We use the file only to score it, and the result opens only with your code. If you sign in and claim a score, it moves to your account and stays until you delete it.
Frequently asked questions
Is the scorer really free?
Yes. You need no account for the score, the eight dimensions, the checklist and the top three fixes. The slide-by-slide report and rewrite suggestions need a free account.
How accurate is the score?
We calibrate the scorer against a set of real and deliberately damaged decks with reference scores, and block changes that fall below a rank correlation of 0.7. It is a structured second opinion, not a prediction of whether an investor will fund you.
Why does it ask for my stage?
Investors weigh different things at different stages: team and problem for pre-seed, traction and business model for seed and Series A. The stage only changes the weights, never the anchors.
What are the limits?
PDF only, up to 20 MB and 40 pages, and 3 free scores per day from one connection. Decks in Turkish and English both work.
What happens to my deck?
An anonymous PDF is stored for 30 days so you can open your result with the code, then deleted. It is used only to score your deck.
