Unpopular Opinion: Decks don’t close deals. Conversations do. Decks are useful. But if you think they’re what convince investors - you’re missing the point. I’ve seen well-designed decks go nowhere… and I’ve seen half-baked ones lead to 7-figure raises. Why? Because it’s not about the format. It’s about the founder’s clarity and conviction. What investors really want to know: Do you deeply understand the user? Is your thinking original or copy-pasted? Can you execute with urgency and focus? A deck can show some of that. But a real conversation proves it. Decks are the door. Your voice is what gets you inside.

Great UI/UX isn’t just seen… it’s felt. It’s not just about looks. It’s about how it makes you feel when you use it. What was the last app you used that made you say, “Wow, this is smooth!”?

In a world full of viral content, why is nobody who became a crorepati on Dream11 getting famous? It’s been 15 years and they have made 300+ crorepatis, still I’ve not seen a single viral post. Are they actually making crorepatis? What do you think
