Pitch deck analytics
Track your pitch deck. Know which investors are actually interested.
You sent your deck to 60 investors. Most founders can't tell which links were opened, which slides held attention, or whether someone else used the link.
HummingDeck shows you.

The read receipt, in detail
What you see when an investor opens your deck
Most tools give you one number: opens. HummingDeck shows you the whole behavior, slide by slide, viewer by viewer.
- 01
Per-slide engagement
From the Starter plan, you see which slides they read and how long on each, not just a binary "opened" flag. Four minutes on the team page reads differently than 30 seconds across the whole deck.
- 02
Unique viewers
Send a personal link to one investor. If more unique viewers appear on it, the link was opened from another device, location, or person. That can mean internal sharing, but it isn't a record of a forward.
- 03
Return visits
An investor viewed your deck on Monday, then came back Thursday without you following up. The reason isn't recorded, but a return visit is a good moment to send a relevant update.
- 04
Bot filtering
VC firms use enterprise email with SafeLinks and Proofpoint, which can open a link before a person does. HummingDeck's three-layer detection keeps known bots and likely scanners out of your view counts. Flagged sessions stay reviewable, and no filter can prove every remaining view is human.
- 05
Real-time alerts
Get an email when an investor opens your deck. On Pro and Business, Slack also posts a session summary when they finish reading. No dashboard to keep open.

How it works
From upload to engagement in three steps
Upload your pitch deck
PDF, PowerPoint, or Google Slides. Drag and drop. Your deck is ready to share in seconds. Attach your financial model (Excel) and other diligence docs alongside it.
Create a unique link for each investor
One link per investor. Send it open, or on Pro and Business, ask for an email or restrict it to a verified allowlist. Each link tracks individually.
Share and track
Send via email, LinkedIn DM, or warm intro. See what happens in real time. Update your deck anytime, and every existing link automatically serves the latest version.

The forwarding signal
What one personal link can show you
Send a personal link to one investor. When extra unique viewers appear on it, each with its own location and time on each slide, someone else is using the link. That can be a colleague or the same investor on another device.
HummingDeck counts unique viewers by captured email, browser fingerprint, or IP address, so it shows that another viewer appeared, not why.
Treat extra viewers as a reason to offer context for other reviewers, not as proof that a partner is reviewing.
Investor data room
One link for your entire fundraise

- One branded page, one link
- Embedded Loom, Calendly, Typeform, Figma, Notion
- See time spent on each document, per investor
- Replace any document mid-raise without changing the link

Who uses this
Built for everyone raising on signal
Early-stage founders
You're sending your deck to 50+ investors for the first time. See which links were opened, which slides held attention, and whether another viewer appeared on a link. Time your follow-ups on recorded engagement, not guesswork.
Growth-stage founders
Larger rounds mean more firms evaluating simultaneously. Track engagement across dozens of investor conversations. See which firms are actively reviewing vs. going cold.
M&A advisors and bankers
Share CIMs, teasers, and deal memos with per-page tracking and controlled access. See which buyers opened what, and for how long, before the first call.
Accelerators and scouts
Share portfolio company decks with LPs or co-investors. Track which companies generate the most interest and who's coming back for a second look.
Access control
Pick the access model that matches the stage.
Cold outreach works best with no friction: personal link, no email gate, no login. Confidential late-stage materials, financials, term sheets, the full data room, belong behind an allowlist of verified emails. Choose per share.
Anyone with the link
No email, no login. Best for cold outreach where every extra click costs you a view. You still get per-slide analytics and unique-viewer detection.

What your investor sees
Opens instantly
No email, no login screen.
Optional · email-verified access for confidential rounds
Lock to a list
Add the partners on the deal team to the allowlist. Each verifies their email to open it, so only addresses you approved can get in.
Know which partner read it
Every view ties to a verified email on your list, not just the firm. Useful for knowing who to prep when the IC meeting comes around.
Revoke when things change
Partner leaves the firm. Conversation cools. Revoke access in one click and the next page load bounces them.

Why founders use HummingDeck as their fundraising data room
By Series A, investors expect more than a deck. A fundraising data room puts your pitch deck, financial model, team page, and customer references behind one branded link, with per-document analytics across the whole package.
Many virtual data rooms put that behind higher-priced plans. HummingDeck includes one Room on the Free plan and three on Starter at $10 a month.

3 users included · $300/mo billed monthly
Same per-page tracking, unique-viewer detection, bot filtering. Live in 5 minutes.
