{Examples, labelled}
The deck work we can show.
Client decks sit under NDA. What we can show is the studio's own practice, labelled, and the shape of the work behind the NDA.
Ongoing practice · Startups and foundersFundedFour fictional startups, five slides each: how story structure and visual direction change with the business being explained.

FinTech
An investor deck and the onboarding flows behind it, so the pitch and the product tell one story.
Stage: early-stage
Every project is labelled before you see it: client, client work anonymised, studio concept or practice. What each label means
{What you get}
What a deck project includes.
One argument per slide, numbers that read in five seconds, and an editable file you keep. We fix the order of your story first, then make it look like money.
A narrative pass first
We reorder the argument before designing anything. Sequence fixes more than styling does.
12 to 18 designed slides
One point per slide, a headline that states it, and the evidence underneath.
Charts rebuilt from your numbers
Drawn to be read in five seconds, with the source and the date on the slide.
An editable source file
Keynote, PowerPoint or Google Slides, with the styles set up so your edits hold.
A short appendix
The detail slides you skip in the room and send afterwards.
One revision round
After you have shown it to somebody. Notes from a real room beat notes from a review call.
You probably need this if…
- Your deck is forty slides and nobody reaches the end.Usually three arguments per slide and no headline saying which one matters.
- The numbers are good and the charts hide them.Default spreadsheet charts with a legend nobody reads.
- You cannot edit the file your last designer sent.Flattened images, or a tool nobody on your team has.
{Example redline}
One slide, before and after.
The most common fix on a founder's deck is not visual. It is a headline that tries to say three things.
Slide 4 · headline
Struck: Overview: our solution, the market opportunity and early traction
Inserted: Front desks lose rebookings because the next visit is never booked at checkout.
Why. A slide makes one argument, stated as a sentence. The market and the traction move to their own slides, where each can carry its evidence and its source.
Example, not a client

Where we are not the right fit
- You need financial modelling, fundraising advice or investor introductions.
- You want us to fill a slide with a figure you have not modelled. We make your numbers land; we do not invent them.
{Before we begin}
Founders ask these before the call.
Price, timing, what you keep and what we will not do. Straight answers, including the limits.
Ask us something elseHow fast can you turn a deck around?
We quote it against your meeting date before we start, and faster work is priced separately. What slows a deck down is an unsettled story, not the design, so the narrative pass comes first.
Can I edit the deck afterwards?
Yes. You get the source file in Keynote, PowerPoint or Google Slides, with master styles set up so a new slide comes out matching. Fonts are embedded or swapped for ones your team already has.
Will you write the deck for me?
We rewrite headlines and tighten what is there, and we reorder the argument. We do not invent traction, market size or a projection you have not modelled. Bring the numbers and the claims; we make them land.
How much does pitch deck design cost?
Standard deck: $1,800 CAD per deck, plus HST. Investor deck: $3,500 CAD per deck, plus HST. Standard covers the order pass, the slides, the charts and one revision round; Investor adds the rebuilt story, an appendix and a send-ahead version. Slide count and how settled your story is are what move it, and a rush turnaround is priced separately.
What should I bring to the first call?
Your current deck, your numbers and where they come from, the round you are raising and the meeting date. Feedback you have already had from investors helps most, because it shows which slide is losing the room.
Do you sign an NDA?
Yes. Most of our startup work is under NDA, which is why the examples on this page are studio concepts and anonymised descriptions rather than client decks.
Do you help with fundraising or introductions?
No. Financial modelling, fundraising advice and investor introductions are outside a deck project. We make the argument you bring read clearly; we do not broker the meeting.
