This is Second Opinion, created by your friends Deck Doctors and Hustle Fund VC, where we give honest, tactical feedback to founders about their pitch decks.

Real talk

Too Long; Didn't Watch:

• Invert background color to add visual transitions and punctuate the presentation.
• Use layout variations to add visual rhythm to the pitch and better suit slide content.
• Balance information density to keep readers engaged.

Reminder of how this works

Here's how this whole Second Opinion thing works: founders submit their decks to be reviewed by filling out this form.

The Deck Doctors review the deck, then record a video with tactical suggestions on how to improve it. Our aim: to help founders land more meetings with investors.

There is no money exchanged, no favoritism, and no judgments.
