Every pitch deck you receive goes into Slide Barn and stays there. Every word on every slide is indexed. Over time you build an archive — a corpus of your entire deal flow history. Search "vertical SaaS construction" and find every founder who's pitched that thesis, from last week and from three years ago.
When dozens of founders are pitching the same thesis, it shows up in search. When a model or market assumption keeps appearing, you can trace it. When something genuinely novel arrives, you can verify it's actually novel — not something you saw twice before — by searching the corpus. Conviction backed by pattern recognition, not just instinct.
The partner who's been there ten years carries enormous pattern recognition in their head. Slide Barn puts that knowledge in the library instead. New team members can search what the firm has seen, how it thought about similar situations, and what it passed on and why — without having to ask someone who might not be there anymore.
Share the deal library with the full partnership so everyone reviews from the same source. Tag deals with shared status. Voting and scoring is coming — so the team can formally evaluate and document alignment on each deal without a separate process.
The library gets more valuable every year — year three of uploads is richer than year one
Spot trends across deal flow and identify what's genuinely differentiated by searching what you've actually seen
What the firm has seen and how it thought about it stays in the library — not in someone's head
