Pitch decks by category
Pitch deck design for biotech companies.
A biotech deck is read by scientists and generalists in the same meeting. We rebuild drafts so the science is accurate, the pipeline is legible and the use of money is tied to milestones.
Fixed prices from $1,500 to $10,000. No calls: everything in writing.

Biotech decks we build
Each page sets out, slide by slide, what that deck has to show and the faults we fix.

Therapeutics deck
A therapeutics deck carries a lead program toward a value inflection point.
8 slides explained
Platform biotech deck
A platform company must show that its technology produces more than one good program.
8 slides explained
Diagnostics deck
A diagnostic is only valuable if it changes a clinical decision and someone pays for it.
8 slides explained
Non-confidential deck
The non-confidential deck opens conversations with investors and pharma partners.
8 slides explained
What a biotech deck has to show
- The unmet need, in patients and current treatment.
- The mechanism, in one diagram a non-specialist can follow.
- Data so far, with the study design stated.
- The pipeline with stages and expected timing.
- Intellectual property position.
- What this round funds, milestone by milestone.
Common faults in biotech drafts
Figures pasted from papers at unreadable size. A pipeline chart with no dates. Data slides without the number of subjects or the comparison. We redraw figures for the screen and add the context each one needs.
Accuracy comes first
We do not alter data or restate conclusions. Every scientific slide is sent back to you for written confirmation before the deck is final.
How it differs
How biotech decks differ
A biotech deck asks investors to fund years of work before revenue, so evidence and milestones replace traction. It is read by generalists and specialists at once, and each checks different things: the need and the money, or the models and statistics. Value moves at data readouts and regulatory steps, so the raise is tied to one of them. Confidentiality shapes the deck too: many companies need a non-confidential version to open doors and a full version shared under agreement.
The questions behind every slide
What biotech investors and readers ask
Each answer names the slide or document where it belongs.
- 1
Do specialist and generalist investors need different decks?
Usually one master deck works: generalists read the main slides, and specialists read the scientific appendix behind them.
- 2
How much data is enough for an early deck?
There is no fixed amount. Show what you have with its design and size, and name the next experiment and what it would prove.
- 3
Should the deck include comparable deals or a valuation?
Public partnering deals can be cited with sources. Valuation is a matter for your advisers, not the deck.
- 4
How do we show risk without alarming readers?
List the main scientific, clinical and manufacturing risks, each beside the study or step that retires it. Specialists will find them anyway.
- 5
Can we feature our advisors and key opinion leaders?
Yes, by name and role, with their permission. Any quote needs their written approval.
- 6
What does a deck for a pharma partner add?
How the asset fits the partner's pipeline, the deal structures you will consider and the territories available.

Questions, answered.
Do your designers have a science background?+
We work from your material and confirm every scientific slide with you in writing. We do not interpret data ourselves.
Can you redraw figures from our publications?+
Yes, as clean charts or diagrams. You confirm they still represent the data correctly.
Is a non-confidential version possible?+
Yes. Raise Set includes a short teaser, which is often used as the non-confidential deck.
Confidential and non-confidential decks: do we need both?+
Usually yes. The non-confidential version opens conversations; the full deck follows under a confidentiality agreement. Raise Set includes a teaser for this.
How do you draw a pipeline chart?+
As horizontal bars by program across stages from discovery to approval, with the next milestone marked on each.
How much does a pitch deck cost here?+
A written Deck Audit is $1,500. Investor Finish, a design rebuild of up to 15 slides, is $3,500. Finish + Story, with the argument restructured, is $6,500. Raise Set, up to 30 slides with a one-pager and teaser, is $10,000.
How long does it take?+
Three business days for an audit, five for Investor Finish, eight for Finish + Story and twelve for Raise Set, counted from payment and a complete brief.
Is there a call?+
No. No package includes a call or meeting. You brief us in writing and comment in writing.
What do I need to send?+
Your draft deck in any editable format, or notes if you chose a package with writing, plus a few lines on who will read it and what you are asking for.
How do I pay?+
By card, through a secure payment link we send once scope and delivery date are confirmed in writing.
