“Great team and a bold vision, but I fund companies that exist in this decade, not just on a roadmap.”
Story & Problem
8.0You articulated a clear problem and a compelling narrative around 'democratizing' labs. Just try to keep 'Humanity needs' out of the pitch, unless you expect me to invest out of pure altruism.
Market Size
6.0The $250B spent on manual experiments is a big number, but you need to show me how Keda actually converts a slice of that without a more concrete TAM/SAM/SOM breakdown. '100x larger market' is an impressive claim that needs more than just a bold statement.
Business Model
5.0A $30K autonomous lab sounds revolutionary, but while the hardware price is clear, your monetization for the 'AI Co-Scientist' and developer ecosystem is murkier than my morning coffee. Is this a hardware play or a recurring revenue machine?
Team
9.0Your team's pedigree with Makerbot and Opentrons is the only reason I'm still listening. It means you actually know how to ship hardware, which is more than 99% of founders I meet.
Traction & GTM
3.0Your timeline shows a commercial launch for the full workcell in 2028. You're asking for seed money based on 'will gather LOIs' and a developer community that doesn't yet exist. I need to see some actual traction, not just future aspirations.
Design & Clarity
8.0The deck looks sharp and is easy to follow; a rare feat among pitches. At least you bothered to make it legible, which is a low bar most founders trip over.
