Business Model ranking - Enter a startup idea / website and your target customer to get a ranking of potential business models. The agent considers several factors including customer preferences, value realization and risk, competition, sales cycle and cashflow. This framework is adapted from 'Disciplined Entrepreneurship: 24 Steps to a Successful Startup' by Bill Aulet.
Craft your Startup's Financial Projections - In order to raise venture capital, startups need a pathway to $100 million in revenue typically over 5-7 years.

A common mistake in sales decks is leading with a long list of features. Prospects don't buy features; they buy solutions to their problems. A truly effective narrative makes the prospect the hero of the story by first deeply understanding and articulating their challenges. Your pitch should reflect their pain so clearly that they feel you've read their minds.
We’ve developed a highly effective 10-point structure for crafting a sales deck narrative. To show you exactly how this works in practice, we used BonBillo's Sales Deck Narrative AI agent to help RaschGo, a pre-order restaurant tech app in the US and Portugal, define their customer's struggle like this: "You're battling unpredictable demand, slow table turnover, and the constant threat of no-shows." This language doesn't talk about technology; it talks about the daily battles a restaurant owner faces. It validates their frustrations and sets the stage for a solution that genuinely helps, making the subsequent product reveal far more impactful.
