Teleprompter for Investor Pitches — Hit Every Metric, Survive Every Tough Question, Close the Round
You've got 30 minutes with a partner at a top-tier fund. Burn rate, ARR growth, retention cohorts, TAM, founder story — and the inevitable "why are you the right person to build this?" ShareSpeak puts your numbers and your narrative on screen, invisible to the VC. One fumbled metric can kill a round. $12.50 to never fumble again.
The Investor Pitch Reality Every Founder Knows
You spent two weeks prepping for this pitch. You memorized your deck. You rehearsed with your cofounder, with a friendly angel, with yourself in the mirror. You know your ARR growth by month, your CAC payback, your top three customer stories.
Then 12 minutes in, the partner asks: "What's your gross retention vs net retention split by ICP cohort?" You know the answer — it was on slide 19 of the data room. You blank. You give a vague directional response. You see the partner's face shift. The associate types something. The conversation moves on but the energy is gone. You don't get the follow-up.
The cope without ShareSpeak:
- Memorize 60 slides of data — works in rehearsal, fails under partner-meeting pressure.
- Pitch deck speaker notes — invisible the moment you share screen.
- Second monitor with cheat sheet — every VC notices the eye drift. It signals nerves and lack of preparation.
- Cofounder feeds you the numbers — works on Zoom, makes you look co-dependent, doesn't work on solo follow-ups.
- "Let me get back to you on that" — sometimes fine, often signals you don't know your own business.
ShareSpeak fixes this. Your full pitch — narrative, metrics, anticipated Q&A responses — sits on top of the deck, invisible to the investor. The exact retention number is right there when you need it. So is the answer to "why are you the right founder?"
Built for the Stakes of a Funding Round
Invisible Over Your Pitch Deck — Whatever Tool You Use
Pitch.com, Figma, Slidebean, Beautiful.ai, Canva, Google Slides, Keynote, PowerPoint — every founder has a different deck tool. ShareSpeak doesn't care. It sits on top of whatever you're showing, invisible at the OS level. The investor sees the deck. You see the deck plus your speaker notes plus your anticipated objection responses.
Also invisible during product demos. Walk the VC through your actual product mid-pitch with your demo script floating above the UI — Stripe dashboard, internal admin tool, customer-facing app, whatever you're showing.
AI Voice Tracking — Survives Partner Q&A
Partner meetings rarely follow your deck order. You start at slide 1. The partner jumps to slide 14 with a question about churn. You answer. They ask about the competitive landscape — which is slide 8. You answer. Now where are you in your narrative?
ShareSpeak follows your voice naturally. No clicking, no remote, no flipping through script pages while a partner is staring at you:
- Partner interrupts with a churn question? Pause to answer — the text waits.
- Associate asks for the TAM math? Switch to the section in your script — the AI picks up your new place.
- Need to walk through the product live? Go off-script for the demo — come back to the narrative when you're ready.
- Partner asks the same question twice (testing consistency)? Your second answer matches your first — because both come from the script.
Per-Investor Scripts — Different VCs, Different Angles
Sequoia cares about defensibility and category creation. a16z wants ambitious narrative and founder thesis. Index leans into product velocity. Bessemer asks for cohort efficiency. Tier-2 funds want growth numbers. Angels want founder story. Same product, fifteen different conversations.
Smart founders prep per-investor. ShareSpeak makes that prep usable in the moment:
- Fund-specific narrative — frame the same story through their thesis
- Portfolio comparison talking points — "we're like [their portfolio co] but for [different segment]"
- Partner-specific pre-meeting notes — their recent essays, their last 3 investments, the connection from the warm intro
- Anti-objection prep per partner — Bill Gurley will ask about unit economics; Vinod will ask about technical moat
- Different metrics to lead with — efficiency-focused funds see CAC payback first, growth-focused funds see month-over-month ARR
Paste your per-investor prep into ShareSpeak before each meeting. Run the pitch with personalization that a normal founder couldn't possibly memorize across 30 first calls.
Your Metrics Cheat Sheet — Without Looking Like You Have One
Investors test whether you actually know your business. They'll ask the metric in five different ways across the call. Your answers need to be consistent and precise. The numbers you should never blank on:
- Financial: ARR, MRR, growth rate (MoM/QoQ/YoY), burn, runway, gross margin, payback period
- Customer: CAC, LTV, LTV:CAC ratio, gross retention, net retention, NPS
- Cohort: retention curves by quarter, expansion revenue, churn by ACV band
- Market: TAM/SAM/SOM with sources, market growth rate, competitive density
- Team: headcount, hiring plan, key hires made, advisor list
- Round: raise amount, valuation expectation, use of funds, milestones to next round
Put them in your ShareSpeak script. When the partner asks, you don't fumble — you cite the number with the context.
Anticipated Q&A — Your Best Answers Ready at All Times
After 5 partner meetings you know the questions. After 15 you know the framing of the questions. ShareSpeak holds your tested, refined answers ready:
- "Why now?" — your three-beat market timing answer
- "Why you?" — your founder-market fit story
- "What's the moat?" — your defensibility argument with specific examples
- "What if [BigCo] builds this?" — your competitive response
- "How do you scale?" — your team-and-distribution plan
- "What kills this company?" — your honest risk assessment (this question separates good founders from great)
No more "great question, let me think" while you scramble. Your best answer is right there, refined from 12 previous pitches.
Works Anywhere You Pitch — Zoom, Demo Day, Even In-Person
Pitches happen in different formats:
- Remote first call (Zoom, Google Meet) — share your deck, ShareSpeak invisible to the VC's screen
- In-person partner meetings — your laptop open in front of you, deck on the conference room screen, ShareSpeak only visible to you on your laptop
- Demo Day (YC, Techstars, AngelPad) — your script on screen while you present to a room of 100 VCs, only visible from your stage view
- Recorded pitches — VCs increasingly ask for a 5-minute recorded intro before live calls. ShareSpeak is invisible in your screen recording — you sound polished without looking like you're reading
- Reverse pitch (VC pitching you) — yes, this happens for hot founders. Your questions for them stay on screen.
For Every Stage of the Fundraise
Pre-Seed & Seed Rounds
Story-heavy pitches with minimal traction. Founder-market fit, vision, narrative arc all scripted. No data to fall back on means narrative precision matters.
Series A & Beyond
Metric-heavy pitches where every cohort number and unit economic is scrutinized. The right answer to the right question wins the round.
Demo Day (YC, Techstars)
90-second pitches in front of 200+ investors. Every word scripted, no room for fumbles. ShareSpeak puts the script on your monitor, invisible to the audience.
Partner Meetings
45-60 minute deep dives in front of the full partnership. Every metric, every narrative thread, every Q&A response prepared and on screen.
Angel & LP Conversations
Individual angel investors and LPs for funds. More relational, but the numbers still matter. Solo founders can run these without a cofounder to feed metrics.
Recorded Pitch Videos
Async pitches before live calls (increasingly common). 3-5 minutes recorded. ShareSpeak invisible in the recording — you sound polished without looking like you're reading.
The Stakes Math No Founder Needs Explained
Founders fundraise infrequently. Each round is existential. The math is brutal:
Typical seed round: $1M–$3M
Typical Series A: $8M–$20M
Pitch meetings per round: 30–80
Closing rate after partner meeting: ~10–20%
One memorable fumble in front of a top-tier partner: the round you didn't get
ShareSpeak: $12.50 once
If ShareSpeak helps you not blank during one partner meeting in your founder career — the ROI is uncountable.
Compare to alternatives founders sometimes consider: hiring a pitch coach ($500–$3,000), buying a public-speaking course ($300–$2,000), or paying for VODIUM at $15/month forever. ShareSpeak is $12.50 once. The lowest-stakes line item in your entire fundraising process.
Runs on Your MacBook (the Founder Default)
Most founders pitch from a MacBook. ShareSpeak is native macOS — Apple Silicon, MacBook notch integration, on-device speech recognition. If your CTO or cofounder pitches from Windows or Linux, it works there too.
$12.50 per founder, one-time. Cheaper than a single cab ride to a Sand Hill Road meeting.

Frequently Asked Questions from Founders
Will investors think I'm reading from a script? Isn't that bad?
No. Reading from a script while looking like you're reading is bad. ShareSpeak prevents the look — your eyes stay on the screen (where your deck and script both are), not darting to a second monitor or down at notes. AI voice tracking means no clicking or scrolling — your delivery looks natural. The alternative isn't "no script" — it's "script hidden badly." Hide it well.
Can I prepare different scripts per investor / per fund thesis?
Yes. Save your script per meeting — fund-specific narrative, partner-specific notes, portfolio comparisons, anticipated objections. Load the right one before each call. Most founders prep this in Notion or Google Docs anyway; ShareSpeak just makes the prep usable in real-time during the pitch.
Does it work for Y Combinator demo day or similar in-person events?
Yes. Open ShareSpeak on your presenter laptop. Position the script where you can see it (top of screen works for most). The audience sees your slides on the projection. You see your slides plus your 90-second pitch script — synced to your voice. Especially useful for non-native English speakers presenting in English.
What about in-person partner meetings — does it still work?
Yes. Your laptop is open in front of you anyway (for the deck, notes, sometimes the demo). ShareSpeak runs on your laptop, only visible from your viewing angle. The partner sees what's on the conference room screen, not what's on your laptop. Works exactly the same as remote pitches.
Does it appear in the recording if the VC records the pitch?
No. Some funds record pitches for partnership review. ShareSpeak is invisible at the OS level — it doesn't appear in screen recordings, Zoom recordings, Google Meet recordings, or any video capture. The partner reviewing the recording sees a clean pitch.
I'm a solo founder. Can I use this without a cofounder to help feed metrics?
Yes — this is exactly the solo-founder use case. Cofounded teams sometimes have one founder pitch while the other texts answers or whispers cues. Solo founders don't have that backup. ShareSpeak replaces the cofounder cue system: your metrics, your answers, your narrative — all on screen, all the time. You pitch alone but with the preparation of a team.
Is it deceptive to use a teleprompter for pitches?
No more than using speaker notes in PowerPoint. VCs assume you've rehearsed. They assume you have your numbers ready. Using ShareSpeak is the same as having Cmd+F open to your data room mid-pitch — it's preparation, not deception. The partner cares whether your business is real and your numbers are honest. Whether the numbers are on your screen or in your head is irrelevant.
Can my cofounder use it on the same license?
Each person buys their own — $12.50 each. For a two-cofounder team that's $25 total, forever. Cheaper than one cab to one pitch. No annual renewal, no per-pitch fee.
Pitch Like You've Done This a Hundred Times — Even on Pitch #3
Your narrative on screen. Your metrics one glance away. Your best answers ready when the partner asks. AI tracks your voice. Investors see nothing but a confident founder. $12.50. Forever.
