Best for searching public investor decks and pitch decks
Slidebook is a searchable library of public investor presentations and startup pitch decks, filtered by IPO, M&A or SPAC. It does not make slides, and full results and downloads need Pro at $29 a month.
Who Slidebook is for
- Fits if you research how companies present to investors
- Works for founders who want examples of pitch decks
Who Slidebook is not for
- Not for you if you want to make slides, as it only finds and shows decks
- Pricey if you want downloads, since they need Pro at $29 a month
- Tight if you stay free, as results and views are limited to extended ones
- Watch out: there is only a monthly price, and the site has a page for takedown requests from owners
Why Slidebook gets a 1.8
Five grades, each with its reason. The GPA is their average: an A is 4 points, an F is none.
- DValue for money$29 a month is above the $20 where the dearest tenth of presentation tools starts, with no yearly option.
- CFree plan and trialThe Basic plan gives extended search results and an extended view, but downloads and full results are Pro.
- DFeaturesSlide search, collections, downloads and filters. It displays existing decks and does not create slides, so as a presentation tool it covers one narrow function.
- BEase of useNo store rating is on record, but it is a site you open and search with nothing to set up.
- CPlatforms and integrationsWeb only, with no apps and no integrations on the listing.

Keep Slidebook, or make your own?
Keep it
To replace Slidebook you would be making a library of papers and sources to search. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.
That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 70 of the 89 other presentation tools grade higher. It costs $348 a year.
What you could make
- Documents: an app builder makes this well.
What you could not
- A library of papers and sources to search.
- A slide editor.
What this rests on. Slidebook’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
