Cirus Foundation raised a $2.5M seed round in 2023, backed by AU21 Capital, Avalon Wealth Club, Exnetwork Capital, and Follow the Seed.
Challenges
Cirus had a technically sophisticated product spanning AI, blockchain, and data economics. The challenge wasn’t the vision — it was making it legible. Investors needed to understand a multi-layered ecosystem quickly, and the existing materials couldn’t carry that story clearly enough to close a room.
Solution
We led the full narrative and deck design for Cirus Foundation’s seed fundraising round. Starting with story architecture, we restructured the pitch around a single thesis — data ownership is the next paradigm shift, and Cirus is the infrastructure layer that makes it real.
We built out the full deck: market opportunity, product ecosystem (Surf & Earn, Wallet, Web3 Labs), two-path revenue model, go-to-market timeline, and funding ask. Every slide was designed to move the argument forward visually without losing the room in technical complexity.
How We Designed the Cirus Foundation Pitch Deck
The final Cirus Foundation pitch deck covered the full narrative and deck design process across 14 days. Starting with story architecture, we restructured the pitch around a single clear thesis: data ownership is the next paradigm shift, and Cirus is the infrastructure that makes it real.
From there we simplified layouts, tightened visual hierarchy, and used animation with intention — so every design element supported the story rather than competed with it. The final deck covered market opportunity, product ecosystem, two-path revenue model, go-to-market strategy, and a $2.5M seed funding ask.
