Generating Slide Deck (Phase 6)

Target: $ARGUMENTS

Phase 6 of the GTM pipeline. Depends on Phase 5. Generates a structured investor or stakeholder presentation from the synthesized GTM research.

Mode Awareness

Read config/mode.md before starting:

• concise — 8-10 slides, one data point per slide, minimal text
• detailed — 12-15 slides, supporting evidence slides, appendix section
• conservative — Data-led narrative, proof-before-vision structure
• ambitious — Vision-first narrative, bold claims with supporting data, moonshot framing

Inputs

• results/phase-5/synthesis.md — Integrated GTM narrative (primary source)
• config/comments_gtm.md — Audience type, deck length, format preferences
• config/mode.md — Style and approach settings

Slide Structure

Adapt based on audience from config/comments_gtm.md:

Investor Deck (default)

1. Title — Product name + one-liner
2. Problem — Pain point with market evidence
3. Solution — How the product solves it
4. Market Size — TAM/SAM/SOM
5. Product — Key capabilities and differentiators
6. Traction / PMF Evidence — Signals and validation
7. Competitive Landscape — Positioning map
8. GTM Strategy — Channels, ICP, motion
9. Team (placeholder if not available)
10. Ask / Next Steps

Enterprise Buyer Deck

1. Executive Summary
2. Problem Statement
3. Solution Overview
4. Technical Fit
5. Competitive Differentiation
6. Implementation Path
7. ROI / Business Case
8. Next Steps

Internal Leadership Deck

1. Opportunity Summary
2. Market Analysis
3. PMF Assessment
4. Recommended GTM Path
5. Resource Requirements
6. Risks and Mitigations
7. Decision Required

Workflow

1. Read Phase 5 synthesis and config/comments_gtm.md for audience preference
2. Select appropriate slide structure based on audience
3. Write each slide with: headline (insight), 3-5 bullets, data citations
4. Apply mode settings — concise vs detailed depth, conservative vs ambitious framing
5. Add appendix slides for supporting data (detailed mode only)
6. Validate against criteria — Check config/validation_criteria.md Phase 6 gates

Output

Write to results/phase-6/:

Rules

• Every slide headline must be an insight, not a topic (e.g. "SMB compliance costs $40K/year" not "Market Overview")
• No slide exceeds 5 bullets
• All data slides must cite source inline
• Deck must follow length from config/comments_gtm.md; do not exceed it
• Phase 5 synthesis is the single source of truth — do not introduce new claims in the deck
