Ultraview Deck review

Define the problem that your product or service is solving, and explain why it is important.
Describe your solution in detail, including any unique features or advantages that it offers.
Outline your business model and explain how you plan to generate revenue.
Discuss your competition and how your product or service is different from or better than what is currently available.
Introduce your team and highlight any relevant experience or expertise that they bring to the table.
Provide evidence of the demand for your product or service, such as customer feedback or market research.
Create a financial plan and projected financial statements, such as a profit and loss statement or cash flow projection.
Include any relevant supporting materials, such as images or demos of your product, customer testimonials, or press coverage.

Notes: The order matters/works, don't mess with it much. No more than 2-3 slides per section, though you can have a 10 slide version and a 30 slide version of the master for different audiences/levels of depth. Constantly ask "why does the investor care about X" and rewrite it until



Seena Recommendations:

Generally speaking, I do think this deck needs much work to set you up for success on investor calls. Some areas are missing critical detail, and in others there is detail that is not super useful to investors' diligence. Many slides can also be consolidated into another as well.
Introduction
Slides 1/2
I would combine these two slides, putting the vision of the company on the first page and phrasing it in the 3rd person, along the lines of "Leveraging AI & robotics to driving the advancement of inspection techniques for aerospace & defense"

Problem Statement + Data
In general, I think too many slides are being used here to explain the scope of the problem. This should be max 2-3 slides (currently at 4)

Slide 2
Is there more recent news you can highlight on this? Maybe screenshots of news headlines to convey the severity of the issue. Citing an external source would also be helpful
Slide 3
Would include source(s) here
Slide 4
Include link to source
Slide 5
Include link to source
"Aircraft inspections have remained manual for the past 40+ years with little to no innovation to meet the growing need for mechanics."
"The industry is plagued with outdated processes, safety concerns with personnel, overlooked damages, and inconsistent reporting mechanisms."

Solution
Slide 6
Ultraview logo should be positioned to the left and at the top (we read from left > right) ie. "Introducing Ultraview"
"Ultraview provides automated, consistent and reliable inspection labor for low margin tasks."
The word solution should be included as a title or in bold somewhere
When you're doing the side by side comparison I would denote "Ultraview Solution" then "Current Standard" and also communicate what the savings are ie. "$360k saved annually
Slide 7 and 8
Many of the hardware technologies here are not necessarily proprietary or will catch the eye of investors
I think what you will want to sell is more the harmony between your hardware and software together, pitching the custom tailored package for this industry use case
Combine these two slides together, refer to the software suite as such rather than just Ultraview alone
The picture in slide 10 does not give a strong image of what the inspection dashboard can look like. This is rather a fleet dashboard. Can you include a picture that gives a better image of the inspection process?
In what ways has the user experience been designed to accommodate inspection teams? Would highlight specifics
Market Opportunity
Slide 9
Refer to this slide as "Market Opportunity" as the first heading
Swap image placement to the right side pane
Include link to source
Slide 10
Link to sources
I think slides 9 & 10 can be combined
Product / Business Model
Slide 11
I would title this slide to correspond to the respective segment ie. product or business model
Highlight the word "RaaS"
I'm not sure how compelling of a competitive advantage being in Austin is - as an investor I would rebuke and ask "So what?" can you elaborate on this
Slide 12
What do you define as "great traction"? This should be elaborated upon
Would title this slide accordingly. "Our Pricing Structure" or something else
I think the details within Gold and Platinum maybe need to be elaborated on - what's a priority upgrade? And do Gold customers not get an account manager? Not sure how this bodes for an industrial grade enterprise service
Traction
Slide 13
This slide seems quite brief
What's the scope of these relationships, and more importantly what have the outcomes been thus far?
How many inspections have taken place? How much time & costs were saved? (even if estimates)
How much revenue was generated? Or could have been if these were not free pilots?
GTM
Slide 14
What's the GTM strategy? ie. How do you plan to reach and sell to these prospects?
Are there any LOI's signed?
Projections
From the perspective of a pre-seed investor / angel these numbers are largely anecdotal and there's not enough data to back them up right now
I think the 7 year horizon is too long and investors will want to see how their money will be spent over the next round or two, and the respective output -- in a shorter time frame. Maybe trim this to the next 3-5 years
Is it correct that no revenue would be generated until 2024?
Team
Slide 16
Include LinkedIn links
Other notable successes that can be included?
# yrs experience across companies?
This slide needs more work to boost the perceived strength of your team
Matthew's title is not bolded like the others are
Slide 17
The logos are awesome, but what more can be said about this advisory board to convince me they're the right people to back you up - I think this slide sells the advisers short
Include LinkedIn links
Fundraising Ask
Slides 18-20
Consolidate into 1 slide
Discard slide 21 and include your name, email, phone # to reach you about questions for the raise
Looks like allocation of funds is currently in progress - I would also highlight milestones as a business that you wish to achieve with the intended runway
Terms of the round? SAFE? Pre-Seed / bridge / friends & family?
Combining past awards with the "Our Ask" page seems out of place - put this under the traction page
Future Expansions & Lessons Learned
I'm not sure if these belong here or if they're particularly useful
Future Expansion can be put into another slide, such as Slide 15 on customer personas
Lessons Learned seems good to be transparent about, but it doesn't tell enough of the story I feel
What specifically about regulatory factors has changed that was not the case in the past?
What about the new advisory team has changed to set you up for success now?
Now is the time - in draft
Happy to talk through any items or questions that come to mind! Keep me posted on how the conversations go and also if you have an email blurb for circulation.
