Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

startup-pitch-deck scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 9d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 151 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Startup Pitch Deck

Before you start

Gather the following from the user:

  1. What stage? (Pre-seed, seed, Series A, Series B+)
  2. How much are you raising? (Target amount and intended use of funds)
  3. What is the product? (One-sentence description a non-expert would understand)
  4. Do you have traction? (Revenue, users, growth rate, key metrics)
  5. Who is the audience? (VC firm, angel investors, accelerator, corporate partnership)
  6. How will this be presented? (Live pitch with Q&A, sent cold via email, both)

If the user wants to start with the solution slide, push back: "Investors fund problems, not solutions. Start with a problem so painful that the audience is already nodding before you show what you built."

Deck structure — slide by slide

A standard investor pitch deck is 10-14 slides. Every slide has one job. Below is the recommended order and content for each.

Slide 1: Title

[Company Name] — [what you do in 10 words or fewer]
[Presenter name, title] | Raising $X at [stage]

Slide 2: Problem

- Who has this problem (specific persona, not "everyone")
- How they solve it today (status quo)
- Why the status quo is painful (quantify: time, cost, error rate)
- Include one data point: "X% of [audience] report [problem]"

Slide 3: Solution

- What your product does (one paragraph, no jargon)
- How it solves the problem differently from the status quo
- One screenshot or diagram — show outcome, not feature list

Slide 4: Market size

TAM: Total Addressable Market — everyone who could theoretically buy
SAM: Serviceable Addressable Market — segment you can reach with current model
SOM: Serviceable Obtainable Market — realistic capture in 3-5 years

Present as: TAM $XB → SAM $YB → SOM $ZM
Cite sources for each number. "We estimated" is not a source.

Slide 5: Business model

- How you make money (subscription, usage, marketplace, licensing)
- Pricing: what the customer pays and how (per seat, per transaction, tiered)
- Unit economics: CAC, LTV, LTV:CAC ratio, gross margin
- If pre-revenue: planned pricing model with comparable benchmarks

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
