Cost Comparison · Traditional vs PitchVault
The cost isn't the founders who don't raise. It's preparing them without knowing who's ready — and watching the pipeline end at demo day.
| Activity | Traditional approach | PitchVault ✦ | Traditional | PitchVault |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Pitch prep cost | External pitch coaches ($200–400/hr), demo day workshop facilitators, and deck consultants — billed per session, per founder, per cohort | Unlimited analyses for every founder, every deck version — included in the annual partnership | $10,000–$30,000/cohort | Custom · contact us |
| Feedback consistency | Varies by mentor — different standards, different priorities, no shared baseline across the cohort | Same 4-dimension investor rubric applied to every founder. Every score is comparable. | Inconsistent | Standardised |
| Identifying who needs coaching | No objective signal — program managers read individual decks or rely on mentor impressions | Cohort dashboard shows every founder's four scores in one view. Lagging dimensions flagged automatically. | Manual, slow | Real-time dashboard |
| Tracking improvement | Founders say they've iterated — no way to verify what changed or whether it moved the needle | Full score history across every upload. See exactly what improved, by how much, across which dimension. | No tracking | Full history |
| Post-demo day pipeline | Founders cold outreach after the program ends. Your pipeline visibility ends at demo day. | Founders who opt in stay visible in the curated investor network. Pipeline continues after the program ends. | Ends at demo day | Ongoing |
| Investor-readiness signal | No objective threshold — investors decide in the room whether a founder is ready | VaultScore 75+ = Raise Ready. Founders know before demo day whether they've cleared the bar. | None | Clear threshold |
| Cohort-level tools | Individual Investor-Grade Analysis ($199 one-time each) gives founders their own report — no program-level view, no cohort comparison, no admin seats | Cohort dashboard, AI coaching panel, CSV export, 5 admin seats, score tracking — not available in individual accounts | Not available | Included |
Internal analysis is inconsistent. Mentors have different standards. And the first real pressure test is often in front of the investors you invited to demo day.
Most programs rely on mentor analysis — inconsistent across founders and impossible to compare at scale. Who's actually ready? It's a guess until demo day, and by then it's too late to fix.
Founders say they've iterated. But without a score history across multiple dimensions, you can't see whether changes moved the needle — or just shuffled the slides.
Without data on where the cohort is weakest — by criterion, across all founders — sessions cover everything and fix nothing at scale. The bottleneck is knowing what's lagging.
Your founders leave demo day with a pitch deck and no structured way to stay in front of investors who missed the event or want more time. The pipeline dies with the program.
Create your cohort, configure intake settings, set target stage and sectors. Invite founders by email or share a join link — or open the application queue and review applicants before they join.
Every founder uploads their deck and gets a four-dimensional viability read automatically. You see every score in your cohort dashboard the moment it runs.
The cohort leaderboard and AI coaching panel show exactly who is progressing and where the gaps are. Leave timestamped coaching notes per founder. Set milestones the whole cohort tracks.
Rank founders by investor-readiness. Send opt-in confirmation emails. Generate an LP report. Graduate your cohort when the program closes.
Enable investor visibility per cohort. Opted-in graduates can appear in curated investor deal flow and in your program's dedicated investor view on PitchVault, where approved investors browse your cohort directly.
You get the tools. Your founders get the analysis. Neither is available with individual Pro accounts.
One view of every founder: VaultScore™, VaultRisk™ band, VaultMoat™ status, score trend, and investor-ready status. Sort and filter by any dimension.
Founders apply directly through your program profile. Review submissions and accept applicants into the cohort before the program opens.
Aggregated cohort scoring shows exactly where the gaps are. Leave timestamped notes per founder, set milestones, and run the right workshop next week.
Every founder's score history across all uploads, visible to you and to investors. A founder going 58 to 76 in three weeks tells investors they can be coached.
Rank your cohort by investor-readiness. Send opt-in confirmation emails. Generate a downloadable LP report with aggregate scores and outcome data for your limited partners.
Enable investor visibility and your graduated cohort gets a dedicated page on PitchVault. Approved investors browse your founders directly with full scoring, badges, and score history.
Private by default. You control visibility per cohort with a single toggle. Founders opt in individually.
Running a batch program with 10–30 founders preparing for demo day. Every founder gets a four-dimensional viability read, not just pitch polish. Opt-in founders can stay visible to approved investors after demo day ends.
Supporting early-stage founders over a longer program. Track VaultScore™, VaultRisk™, and VaultMoat™ improvement across cohort rounds. Know which founders are ready to raise — and connect them to investors who act on the scores.
Building companies in-house. Your founding teams get the same four-dimensional evaluation an outside investor would apply — VaultScore™, VaultMoat™, VaultRisk™, and VaultOps™ — before the first real pitch.
Running a student startup program. Give student founders professional-grade analysis benchmarked against real investor criteria — not peer review. The best companies can opt into the investor network immediately after the program.
“It mentioned several parts that our mentors pointed out during our accelerator program. Overall it gives really useful feedback from an investor’s stance. Pretty impressive.”
Every founder gets full investor-grade analysis access, four-dimensional scoring, ranked action roadmap, and founder-controlled investor visibility for the duration of the program. Plus the cohort-level tools that no individual account provides: lifecycle management, application intake, coaching panel, demo day readiness, and a dedicated investor deal flow view for your graduated cohort.
Includes the cohort dashboard, 5 admin seats, CSV export, founder email invitations, and priority support. Pricing is custom based on cohort size — contact us to discuss.
