Launching the future of
startup storytelling
Say hello to Ceemo, your new partner for all things startup storytelling!
Imagine taking a simple personality quiz about your startup, your main competitors, and how you want to be perceived by your customers. With Ceemo, that’s all it takes to develop a brand book that is both aesthetically pleasing and deeply strategic. Ceemo has your brand covered, complete with a:
- Color Scheme
- Open-Source Typography Kit
- Basic Typographic Logo
Better yet, Ceemo will also keep your marketing consistent, by applying your new brand kit to all the marketing materials you need, from letterhead to social media, one-pagers to pitch decks. No more guessing about what color goes where, or what font you should use. Ceemo keeps you polished & professional with just one click.
Better brands are just the beginning. Join us this September for the private beta launch of our automated branding & marketing system. Keep an eye out for our upcoming seed round, which will fuel the development of our proprietary AI pitch narrative frameworks!

Our Proud Testing Partners
Before writing a single line of code, we thoroughly tested our underlying branding, marketing, and pitching methodologies. We put them to the toughest test, by purposefully working with those who have the steepest odds against them in venture capital: underrepresented founders.
We worked with over 300 founders from in every demographic: women, BIPOC, LGBTQIA+, and disabled founders.
We secured dozens of ecosystem partners, strategically streamlining acquisition from likeminded accelerators, universities, and VC funds.
In less than two years, our clients raised over $14 million dollars, which went to 97% underrepresented founders, with the majority of funds raised in Angel & Seed rounds.
Our methods work. Now is the time to automate & scale for both success & impact.
We've won marketing awards judged by
The Future of Startup Storytelling
Begins Here
The Road Ahead
New Year, New Name
After a great deal of thought, our founder develops a name for our new SaaS platform: Ceemo, your friendly automated CMO! The name is inspired by the concept of turning a CMO into a character that personifies the strategies that make marketing so instrumental to every startup's success; a friendly way for every founder to relate to & understand key marketing principles.

Portfolio Company
After holding back the news for two months, iwe were finally able to announce that Perfectly Pitched is a proud Techstars portfolio company. With help from our partners at NEXT, we completed a transition to a Delaware C-Corp & sailed through due diligence. We dove in headfirst as part of the Techstars Atlanta Powered by J.P. Morgan cohort, led by Program Manager Melissa Pegus.
The Perfect Partner
After six months of service as an Advisor, Jake Rosenhaft of Continuous Software made us an offer we couldn't refuse! Joining us as our CTO, Jake brought his spectacular team into the fold as our official tech partner. We began development of the Ceemo platform in March & have been building steadily ever since. Jake has extensive experience going back to his days as a Tech Director at AOL & has a deep understanding of both how to build & the strategy behind the why. Continuous typically builds larger enterprise-level software for clients like Bloomberg, but fell in love with our mission & has brought their considerable skill & expertise to the table to make our vision a reality.
A Bright Brand Idea
With development underway, we worked with branding industry legend Peter King Robbons of Blue Egg Strategy & Design to develop our new logo. As the designer of tech giant logos like Salesforce and Pandora Music, he understood the complexities of our underlying brand strategy. Details about our branding journey are coming soon!

Demo Day
Techstars Atlanta Demo Day is taking place in New York City at the headquarters of J.P. Morgan Chase. We're so excited to share our pitch, our story, and invite our future partners to join the next phase of this journey. If you're an accredited investor or if you're part of the startup ecosystem interested in our upcoming private beta, please feel free to reach out! We're excited to show off our pitch deck, share more details, learn more about you, and see if we might make good friends & fellow marketing futurists!

Join Our Seed Round
Following Techstars' Demo Day, we'll launch our Seed Round! We're looking for investors who believe in the power of stories. Who believe in a more equitable startup landscape. We believe the pen is mightier than the sword, and a good pitch can be more powerful than prejudice. We've studied the very first hurdles underrepresented founders face; without a Friends & Family round, it makes it harder to streamline their story & look like they belong in their market. We want to make that marketing journey easier for every founder, so more ideas get heard, more founders are believed, and more people have an equal shot at their own startup success story.
If that sounds like a future you want to help build, say hello!

AI PITCH NARRATIVES
Ceemo 1.0 is all about laying the foundation for visual marketing; the subtle subconscious theming that forms the emotional base of your startup story. Ceemo 2.0 is all about the verbal narrative that makes the visual come alive. Atop our custom-branded marketing materials, Ceemo will add a layer of AI-infused storytelling mastery. There's a reason a collegiate textbook from MIT has a chapter titled, "Why Heather Can Write". We're taking our founder's writing prowess & pairing it with AI, to create the biggest innovation in pitch decks & startup storytelling since
Guy Kawasaki's 10 Slide Template.

Vertical Expansion
Our heart is in it to bring equality to venture capital, but our vision doesn't end there. Startups are merely our beachhead, both in terms of growth & impact. Brands are needed by more than just startups, or even businesses in general. Our automated color management system could be indispensible for accessibility & design system generation. Carefully crafted narratives with an automated eye toward DEI could minimize liabilities while advancing growth. Pitch decks cover so much more of our economy than just venture capital. Your ability to tell a story & convince others of your ideas can change the trajectory of your career, or of an entire movement. Suffice it to say, this is just the beginning.
