How it differs
How a mental health deck differs from a general pitch deck
A general startup deck treats engagement as success. In mental health, investors ask whether patients actually improved, measured with validated scales, and how the company protects people in crisis. A single serious safety failure can end the business, so the escalation protocol and clinical oversight are core slides, not appendix material. Licensing rules for clinicians and prescribing shape where and how the company can grow. Employers, health plans and patients each pay for different reasons and need different evidence. Language and images must respect patients.

The questions behind every slide
What readers of a mental health deck ask
Each answer names the slide or document where it belongs. If a question has no home in your deck, the reader will ask it in writing, or stop reading.
- 1
Which validated measures do you use, and how often are they taken?
The clinical quality slide should name the scales and the measurement schedule.
- 2
How many patients reach a meaningful improvement, and how is that defined?
The clinical quality slide, stating the definition used and how many patients completed both measurements.
- 3
How do you identify and escalate a patient at risk?
The safety slide should show the escalation path, with the protocol summary in the clinical appendix.
- 4
Who provides clinical oversight, and what are their credentials?
The team slide, with the governance structure in the clinical appendix.
- 5
Are clinicians employees or contractors, and where are they licensed?
The care model slide, with licensure notes in the appendix.
- 6
Do you prescribe medication, and under which rules?
The care model slide, describing your prescribing policy as your counsel confirms it.
- 7
What does a course of care cost to deliver, including clinician time?
A cost line on the who-pays slide, with detail in the appendix.
- 8
Does any automated or AI feature talk with patients, and who supervises it?
The care model or safety slide, showing the human oversight in place.
Headline rewrites
Slide titles that say something.
A reader skims headlines first. A label tells them the topic; a sentence tells them the point. Bracketed figures are placeholders for your own numbers.
