The Best Roast My Deck Alternative: A Free Pitch Deck Scorer That Actually Fixes Your Deck

By Louis Alber · 2026-06-04

You found Roast My Deck. You uploaded your deck. You got a brutal score across six categories, a shareable card, and a verdict that stung a little.

That is the point. And it works.

Roast My Deck (roastmydeck.xyz) is genuinely good at what it does: free, fast, honest, no sign-up friction. If you want a quick read on whether your deck has obvious problems, it delivers.

The question is what happens after the score.


What Every Free Deck Scorer Does Well — and Where They Stop

Roast My Deck, like every other free scoring tool, gives you a number. A verdict. A category breakdown. Some tools add a short paragraph of commentary.

Then the session ends.

You close the tab with a 54/100 and a list of what is broken. The problem is still yours to fix. The narrative is still flat. You still do not know how a real VC partner will attack your traction slide at minute four of a partner meeting. You still do not have a path to the LP who writes €50K checks into climate-tech pre-seeds.

The score was a diagnosis. You needed surgery.


How ForEquity's Pitcho Compares to Roast My Deck

Pitcho is ForEquity's deck scoring agent. It runs 312 data points across your deck in under five seconds. The verdict is brutal — it is trained to find the same reasons a VC partner would say no before you leave the room.

That part is comparable to Roast My Deck. Both tools are honest. Neither will tell you your deck is great when it is not.

The difference starts at what happens next.

"They Score. We Score, Fix, and Get You in the Room."

That is the difference in one line.

A founder who uploads to Roast My Deck gets clarity. A founder who runs Pitcho and moves through the ForEquity pipeline gets:

  1. The score — Pitcho reads your deck against 312 VC data points and returns a verdict with specific failure reasons, not just categories.
  2. The due diligence layer — Quant™ cross-references your claims against market data, competitor benchmarks, and publicly available financials. It finds the gaps a VC analyst would flag before the second meeting.
  3. The narrative rebuild — Forge™ does not give you notes. It rewrites. Slide by slide, it reconstructs your pitch using the mechanics that actually close rounds — hook, tension, traction framing, ask clarity.
  4. The hostile drill — Rival™ runs simulated partner-meeting interrogations. Not soft questions. The kind that expose thin traction, circular moat claims, and a founding team that has not rehearsed. You go into the real meeting having already survived the hard version.
  5. The LP match — Vault™ surfaces verified investors who match your stage, sector, and check size. Founders who score 80+ on Pitcho get priority access to The Syndicate — a pooled SPV structure where LPs write €50K–€250K tickets into vetted deals.

Roast My Deck gives you the mirror. ForEquity hands you the repair manual and walks you through every step.
