The week before demo day
You have a few minutes on stage, a deck you have rewritten more times than you can count, and a story you know well but have not said out loud enough.
Reading from notes pulls your eyes off the people you are pitching to. Stopping to click to the next slide breaks the rhythm you practised. The fix is more out-loud practice, with your words where you can see them.
How Aitho helps you practise the pitch
Aitho is a teleprompter that follows your voice. As you talk, the word you are on lights up and your script keeps your place. When you reach the words for the next slide, the slide moves on its own, so your hands stay free and your eyes stay up.
Try it with the sample pitch
- Create a free account. A short sample pitch for a fictional startup is waiting for you.
- Press Rehearse now and allow the microphone.
- Talk through the pitch. Your script follows you and the slides move as you reach their words.
- Bring your own deck (PDF or PowerPoint) and add the words you plan to say.
Pitch competitions, demo days and accelerator interviews have their own rules. Use Aitho to rehearse; the event's rules apply on the day.
Questions
Do I need to upload my deck to try it?
No. A new account from this page starts with a short sample pitch and its script, so you can try it out loud before you bring your own slides.
Can investors see my script?
No. Your script stays on your own laptop or phone. If you present for real, the room or the call sees only your slides.
What about the questions after the pitch?
Repeat or type a question, and Aitho drafts an answer from your own deck and notes, shown on your screen only. The free plan includes three of these answers.
