Helping pre-seed to Series A and YC-backed startups look as good as their traction. Brand, site and deck as one story. Founder of Oli Studio

What’s going on!!! Are you guys in a group or something to find this out together ??

[Krishna @AnuKrishna_]

@rahulluthra22 the 50+ slides across portfolio companies part is where ai really falls apart imo. one deck it can kind of fake, keeping 50 slides feeling like the same company is the actual job

[Krishna @AnuKrishna_]

@jasonlk agree, and the $20 customers are louder too. they send the most feature requests so it feels like they're the market, when the $5k one just quietly wants it to work

[Krishna @AnuKrishna_]

@tibo_maker the suddenly agrees with everything one is so underrated. when someone stops pushing back that's usually the first sign, way before the updates get late

[Krishna @AnuKrishna_]

@anibaldinelli building brands someone wants to buy is such a different brief from building brands people like. dont you think buyers look at completely different stuff, like how much of it runs without you? curious what the dubai move changes there

[Krishna @AnuKrishna_]

@robiosss @due_network nyc and london together makes sense for payments tbh, that's where most of the people you'd be selling to already are. is gtm going after fintechs first or regular businesses moving money abroad?

[Krishna @AnuKrishna_]

@nikhil__mishra @tryflexprice the screenshot it and paste it back part is so accurate. does it answer with just the number or does it show where it pulled it from? for billing i feel like people trust it way more when they can see the source

[Krishna @AnuKrishna_]

@dakshpixelup the deck someone forwards is the one that always gets missed ngl. founders redo the whole site for launch week and the deck still has last year's logo and old screenshots

[Krishna @AnuKrishna_]

@levelsio async also leaves a paper trail which is half the value tbh. on a call everyone agrees and then remembers it differently a week later .... experience my guru

[Krishna @AnuKrishna_]

@haydxnqn congrats man!! showing up everyday and pushing will get you results!!

[Krishna @AnuKrishna_]

@djl_farhan @beenthereglobal honestly marketing feels like the hardest cap. with code you know in 5 min if something broke, with marketing you find out three weeks later. what actually got you to #15 with zero budget?

[Krishna @AnuKrishna_]

made this with fable 5.2 in 1hr.

[Krishna @AnuKrishna_]

@AravSrinivas and the perplexity of every startup's figma file, apparently

[Krishna @AnuKrishna_]

@Vatsalpandya333 happy birthday. an sf company run from mumbai is a pretty good setup ngl

[Krishna @AnuKrishna_]

@PrashantByte09 step 5 is waitlist page with a purple gradient and testimonials from your college friends lol

[Krishna @AnuKrishna_]

@vsachar i think people will miss that the price doubles on nov 30. if you're planning next year's costs based on this price, january is going to be a surprise.

[Krishna @AnuKrishna_]

@b4dgerr idk if money is the main issue though. i think india has more capital than people assume. getting people to pay for software and keep paying is the harder part. feels like us founders have an advantage there.

[Krishna @AnuKrishna_]

@christinaqi the about us photos thing makes sense. maybe people were judging the team before even understanding the product. did they spend more time on the product slides or was it across the whole deck?

[Krishna @AnuKrishna_]

@compliantvc a €70k series A and he's faxing the deck. honestly thats the most capital efficient data room i've heard of all year lol

[Krishna @AnuKrishna_]

@malpani because everyone’s more worried about what can get them in trouble than whether anyone actually gets it. lawyers get the first pass, analysts get the second, and nobody’s really there to make it land
