YC alum offering free pitch deck feedback
I'm a 3x founder, YC alum, and early-stage investor. I was lucky to back Zapier, Clever, Omaze, and a few others at the seed stage.
This summer I'm spending time helping early-stage founders and learning from them. If you're raising or planning to raise, I'm happy to review your deck and offer honest feedback to help you sharpen the story from an investor's perspective.
In return, I'd love to ask you a few quick questions about your fundraising experience. What's working, what's frustrating, and how you're thinking about it. It helps me better understand how founders are raising today and where the process breaks down.
If you're up for it, feel free to reply here or message me privately. You can email me directly if you like mike.stachowiak@gmail.com
No catch. Just hoping it's helpful for both of us.

Hi Mike,
This is awesome (And kind) of you to offer your help. My startup, Intecular, is currently fundraising, and I have much to share...particularly the frustrations. I'd love to have a conversation about the process.
Thank you!

@mike_stachowiak this is great, I'm just thinking if YC look at decks at all.
This is an amazing initiative, Mike, and I'd love to have a chat sometime. I've had fundraising experience before. At the moment, I may not be raising but nonetheless, I'm happy to share my previous experiences and my journey so far. I've been a founder for the last 4 years and recently decided to join the workforce.
