The deck validates the market by identifying specific, high-value target sectors like healthcare and regulatory bodies, showing a clear go-to-market focus. They anchor the opportunity with a massive $60 billion total addressable market, signaling significant growth potential to investors. This combination of a large market size with specific entry points makes the opportunity feel both vast and attainable.

Atexto uses participation in the 500 Startups Accelerator as powerful third-party validation, which serves as a strong signal of quality to early-stage investors. They demonstrate clear momentum by showing revenue growth from $11K in Q1-17 to $26K in Q1-18, proving the business model is viable. This combination of social proof and hard financial metrics builds significant credibility.
Our Tip: Showcase both qualitative validation like accelerator acceptance and quantitative metrics like revenue growth to build a comprehensive and compelling case for your traction.
Atexto consistently uses hard numbers—from the 99.99% accuracy of its solution to its $60 billion market size—to transform abstract claims into tangible, undeniable facts. This data-driven approach removes ambiguity and allows investors to quickly grasp the scale of the problem, the power of the solution, and the size of the opportunity. To apply this, audit your deck for vague statements and replace them with specific metrics, financial figures, or user data to make every point more compelling.
The deck masterfully builds credibility by pairing every major claim with a form of proof, such as using the 500 Startups Accelerator acceptance to validate their potential and revenue growth to prove their business model. This strategy proactively answers investor questions and builds confidence by showing that the team has already overcome key hurdles in technology, market entry, and monetization. In your own deck, match each core assumption—about your product, market, or business model—with a corresponding piece of evidence like user testimonials, pilot results, or expert validation.
