Write a Startup Elevator Pitch
Craft a crisp, compelling 30-second and 2-minute elevator pitch for any startup or product.
The Prompt
Write an elevator pitch for my startup in two lengths: **30-second version (~75 words):** For a chance encounter — quick, memorable, creates curiosity. **2-minute version (~250 words):** For an investor or potential customer meeting — includes the problem, solution, traction, and ask. Structure for both: - Problem (1-2 sentences, specific and relatable) - Solution (what you've built) - Why now / why you (differentiation) - Traction (any number that proves people want this) - The ask (what do you want from this person?) Startup details: - What we do: [DESCRIBE YOUR STARTUP] - The problem we solve: [SPECIFIC PROBLEM] - Our solution: [YOUR PRODUCT/APPROACH] - Key traction: [ANY NUMBERS — users, revenue, growth] - Differentiation: [WHY YOU WIN]
Example Output
30-second pitch that opens with a painful cost story, names the product and its core insight in one sentence, and ends with a traction number. 2-minute pitch that opens the same way, expands to the market size, explains the technical moat, shares 3 months of growth data, and closes with a clear investor ask.
