The signal underneath the pitch
Pressure-test the story before the room does.
The course is built around a simple founder reality: investors do not only evaluate the idea, they evaluate the clarity, discipline and contradictions behind it.
Each session isolates one weakness that can make a strong startup sound unready and turns it into a sharper, more defensible narrative.
01
No generic frameworks
Only the questions that expose whether a founder can hold the room.
02
Sequential thinking
The order matters: every session prepares the next decision.
03
