How to Demo Your MVP to Investors - Without Overwhelming Them You don’t need a full-featured product to impress investors. You just need to show clarity + momentum - fast. Here’s how I tell founders to present their MVP in early-stage pitches: ✅ Show only 2-3 core flows ✅ Frame it: “This is what users actually use” ✅ Add data: “~180 users tested this version over 3 weeks” ✅ Talk iteration: “We’ve shipped 4 major changes since feedback” Don't over-demo. Don’t walk through onboarding if the “wow” moment comes later. The goal is not to explain every button. The goal is to make them say: “Okay, people actually want this.”
