| description | Generate an editable 10-slide startup pitch deck as a PPTX file from structured JSON. Use when a founder needs a concrete fundraising deck covering problem, solution, business model, product, competition, traction, roadmap, team, and fundraising. Supports Chinese and English content through a bundled Python script. |
Pitch Deck Creator
Generate a consistent 10-slide fundraising deck from structured startup data. This skill is the executable option in the BP collection: it produces a PPTX instead of only an outline or writing framework.
When to Use
Use this skill when the user wants an editable PPTX generated from known company information. Use a planning or narrative skill first when the user still needs to decide the story:
fundraising-bp-planner for a Chinese outlineinvestor-pitch-planner for an English outlinesequoia-structured-bp, yc-insight-driven-bp, or raskin-narrative-bp for a specific narrative frameworkbusiness-plan-ppt for the separate 18-page Chinese content and visual specification
Bundled Implementation
- Script:
scripts/generate_pitch_deck.py
- Dependency:
python-pptx>=0.6.21 from requirements.txt
- Input: UTF-8 JSON
- Output: editable 16:9 PPTX
- Default filename:
{project_name}_BP.pptx
The bundled script does not export PDF. Convert the generated PPTX separately when the user explicitly needs PDF or web delivery.
The two files under references/ document the legacy 18-page reference style. They are not the output contract of this 10-slide generator; use business-plan-ppt when that longer structure is the actual requirement.
Input Expectations
Collect or extract these JSON fields:
project_name, tagline, and up to three value_propspain_points and market_size (tam, sam, som)solution.features and solution.differentiationbusiness_model.revenue_streams and business_model.pricingproduct_status, competitors, traction, and roadmapteam and fundraisinglanguage: zh or en- Optional
colors: primary, dark, and accent
Do not invent traction, market size, customer evidence, team credentials, or fundraising terms. Leave unknown values empty or mark them for confirmation before generation.
Workflow
-
Extract the company information and list any missing decision-critical fields.
-
Confirm every factual claim that will appear in the deck.
-
Create a UTF-8 JSON input file using the schema in README.md.
-
Install the local dependency with python3 -m pip install -r requirements.txt when needed.
-
Run:
python3 scripts/generate_pitch_deck.py --input startup.json --output Company_BP.pptx
-
Open the PPTX and review text overflow, missing fields, contrast, and factual accuracy.
-
Revise the JSON and regenerate rather than manually patching repeated content.

Output Standards
- Confirm that the generated file contains exactly 10 slides.
- Keep the 16:9 dimensions and the chosen color tokens consistent.
- Treat generated layouts as a first draft: review overflow and sparse slides manually.
- Replace empty placeholders before external sharing.
- Keep source data and claims traceable; never present assumptions as verified facts.
