Which one is for you
Pick Pitch if
- Fits if you send sales decks and want to see whether they were opened and which slides were read, on Team
- Works for up to 5 people on the free plan, if Pitch branding on links and downloads is fine
Look elsewhere if
- Pricey if link tracking is the point, since it starts at Team, $19 a seat a month paying yearly or $23 monthly
- Tight if you're on your own and might add a colleague: Plus covers one seat, so two people means Team
- Not for you if a small company needs SSO, as SAML SSO and SCIM are Enterprise only, from 30 seats
- Tight if you lean on the AI while staying free, with 100 credits that don't renew and 2 guests
- Watch out: US prices of $13, $19 and $25 sit above the 10, 15 and 20 a seat charged in euros, pounds and elsewhere
Pick Slidebean if
- Fits if you are a founder who wants a pitch deck with view tracking
- Works for people who would also use the cap table and financial model tools
Look elsewhere if
- Skip it if you want a trial you can size up, as the length is not stated
- Not for you if your decks are not pitch decks, as the templates and tools are built around fundraising
- Pricey if you want the investor finder, a strategy call or team sessions, as that is Accelerate at $99 a month, billed monthly
- Watch out: there are no mobile or desktop apps

How this page was made
- The verdict at the top follows a fixed rule. When both tools are in the same category and either is in our top three for it, the verdict follows that ranking: the higher-placed tool is our pick. The top three weigh who each tool suits as well as its grades, so a pick can go against the GPA. Otherwise the page does not pick one and says which grades higher: the higher GPA first; on a tie, the one with a free plan, then the one that starts cheaper in dollars a month, counted the same way for both; if they are still level, what the choice depends on.
- The grades are our own, from each tool’s review or report card. The GPA is their average.
- Prices, plans and platforms come from each tool’s listing. The table above says where each price was read and when.
- The differences and the answers to the questions are worked out from those listings.
