Hi everyone and Happy New Year! Hope it’s started positively for everyone and you have some exciting plans outlined for 2024.
The year has started super productively for me and PitchBob.io team, so in the first edition of the year I want to share our exciting updates.
1. Presenting AI Startup Founder’s Co-Pilot
PitchBob gets a grand update with an AI Startup Founder’s Co-Pilot ready to step in the game. It’s not only about creating a pitch deck or a set of useful documents - it’s about supporting you at every stage of your startup’s journey.
PitchBob’s Co-Pilot is a digital assistant powered by AI and designed to help startup founders navigate the many challenges of entrepreneurship 🌪 (I know it can be full of ups and downs).
PitchBob’s Co-Pilot ready to answer any of your startup-related questions, perform analytical tasks, and assist you in developing your startup with the accumulated knowledge about it. The more you chat with Bob, the more he knows and the more efficient he becomes day by day.
Bob will provide you with instant access to data-driven insights, automate time-consuming tasks, and act as a continuous source of guidance and support. Sounds like a founder’s dream, right?
Here’s what you get in one easy-to-use chat bot:

2. Launching PitchBob Subscription
We have finally launched our long-awaited subscription functionality, which provides even more in-depth and regular support to entrepreneurs on their journey. Signing up for a subscription, you get access to the following features:
– AI Growth Booster – a monthly sprint planning service designed to increase the speed and efficiency of startup development;
– AI-Driven Traction Keeper – a tool for generating monthly plans and reports for the startup team, current and potential investors.
These features know everything about a startup based on created documents and engage in systematic communication with the founder — at the beginning of the month, it asks questions about plans, and at the end of the month, questions about facts, then compares and analyzes them, gives recommendations, and writes a report at the end of the month.
Useful for both:
– Relatively advanced entrepreneurs, who wants/needs to have a monthly progress report for current investors/partners.
– Potential investors - to show traction when fundraising.
– For wantrepreneurs and super early stage: for monthly feedback and reflections checks.
– For technical, introverted, solo founders, and founders in less developed ecosystems, where there is no access to quality feedback.
Important: for everyone who has communicated with PitchBob before, this functionality is available for one month for free! Return to the chat and if you are working on the same project – choose GO. Building something new? Go via the NEW button.

5. Upgrading Pitch Deck Consultants Network

8. Exciting media presence!
The year also started with a super detailed PitchBob overview published on Hackernoon. We had a really nice chat with Alex Lashkov who has been testing the tool himself and got excited to share his experience with the community. Thanks Alex, it turned into a great piece! ⬇️
