To our friends on Product Hunt, For many founders, raising money from investors is one of the most difficult and frustrating parts of starting up. When investors pass on a startup they usually aren’t direct about their reasons because they fear alienating a founder who may go on to be successful. That means the information founders most want is the most difficult for them to get. To help solve this problem, we’ve created a fun and useful tool to help founders hone their pitch. Please meet Pitchbot. When you chat with Pitchbot it’ll tell you what you’re doing well and highlight areas where your pitch needs work. You’ll get notes on what angels and VCs are looking for, why they care about those things, and how to polish your pitch. To create the questions we spoke to and researched 23 of tech’s highest performing investors including Chris Sacca, Sam Altman, Sequoia, Jason Calacanis, and more. We also drew on our own experiences as founders who’ve raised money in the past. Pitch your startup to Pitchbot and see if you get an offer—or a pass. Use Pitchbot (not investor meetings) to iron out the kinks in your pitch and improve your chances of getting funded. We’re excited to see any feedback or questions. If you find this useful then please share with your friends and colleagues.

Extremely well executed product. Love it!

OK, $840k for 10%, I'll take it! :)

Hey Roger! This is great. Keeping it open ended makes it a little susceptible to people trying to break it though :P We recently made a pitchbot from a founder's perspective, how one can pitch using a bot - https://hellotars.com/convBot/de...

Simply loved it! A great product.

Interesting concept. Where's the NDA? I wouldn't want to submit potentially confidential information unless I knew it was protected. How secure is it? Is there a human on the other side? If so, are they in the US or overseas? Also has some exposure points on the bot side ... about making such affirmations.

oh, so great idea! First time used a chatbot

This is great! 👍

Really cool, it helped me think about some questions I didn't think of before! Although the result I got has a valuation way lower than we are at right now. Got: "Ok! We love your idea and would like to invest! $810k – 14% STAKE – $6.1M VALUATION"

Raising funds right now and the bot just gave us a bunch of useful recommendations. But it did't ask the company and founders locations, for us it is a red flag. Despite the promising product, team, market and metrics - it's almost impossible to get first funds being an outsides.

I am a VC and this was still great fun to play with! Recommended to all aspiring pitchers, and even to experienced ones.

The Recommended VCs part is great! Great job with this!

I gave it a try, it was really good. I think that I will use it again when I will really have to raise funds.

Nice idea. Great product. Actually got 745K for my idea. :) :) :)

I can't wait to try it!!!

Smartest product I've seen in a while, that left me with a "Wow"

This is awesome! This will be a nice way of telling a lot of entrepreneurs to focus on fundamentals when they aren't quite ready for investors.

One of the most "alive" bot I have ever talked to. Great job! Kudos to the authors!
