The perfect website team is reasonably priced, incredibly good at communication, highly responsive, very transparent, and actually cares about your success. If your current team falls short on any of that, we would love a chance to prove ourselves.

Whether you need just design, just development, or both, every OneNine client gets a dedicated project manager who keeps projects moving quickly without needing your constant oversight. We only do website design, development, and management.

🚀 How to Turn Your Pitch Deck Into a Website That Slaps (In 30 Minutes)
So, you’ve got a pitch deck — slides that you hope will impress investors.
But let me tell you a secret...
👉 Nobody wants another PDF.
Investors get 100s of decks a week. If you really want to stand out?
Turn your pitch deck into a landing page. One that screams:
“This founder knows what they’re doing.”
And the best part? You don’t need a designer, coder, or developer.
Just use AI.
Here’s how to go from .pptx → investor-ready webpage in 30 minutes (yes, really).

🛠️ Step-by-Step: From Pitch Deck to Webpage
1. Extract the Gold (aka your pitch content)
Take your existing deck. You already did the hard thinking.
Now extract:
Your core slides: Problem, Solution, Product, Team, Traction
Headlines, subheadings, short blurbs
Any logos, screenshots or visuals
🧠 Pro tip: If you want to automate this step, use Python with python-pptx
on Replit (yes, even if you're not technical – it’s copy/paste level stuff).

2. Feed it to AI
“Turn this into a landing page HTML with modern design. Use clear sections, startup-style copy, mobile-friendly layout.”
AI will do the heavy lifting.
🎯 Tool Stack: What to Use
Here are 5 no-code/low-code tools to help you get there — fast:
Tool | What It Does |
---|---|
Upload your pitch deck, turn it into a beautiful interactive webpage in 1 click. | |
Smart slides → site. Great designs, zero effort. | |
Convert pitch into visuals, then export to web/embed. | |
Add interactivity to pitch → share as web experience. | |
AI coach to improve your pitch, plus web-ready format. |
Want developer control? Go for...
🔧 Replit (The Hacker’s Choice)
If you want to customize and host it yourself, Replit is your playground.
Use GPT to generate HTML/CSS, then paste it into Replit.
💥 Bonus: You can even build a mini app or add investor lead forms.
Want to get nerdy? Automate the whole thing:
Extract content from
.pptx
Feed to GPT via OpenAI API
Auto-generate site sections
Publish with Replit's hosting
You're now not just a founder, you're a full-stack content machine.
🧨 Why This Works
Investors love founders who move fast and look sharp.
A simple, sleek landing page shows:
You can execute
You understand narrative
You're scrappy and resourceful
And let's be real: a great site makes you look 10x more legit than a boring PDF.
⚡ TL;DR – The Magic Recipe
Extract pitch deck content
Feed it to AI → get HTML
Use Gamma, Canva, or Replit to launch
Share a clean URL with your investors
Look like a boss
💡 One-Liner You Can Steal
“We don’t send pitch decks. We send live product pages.”
Now that’s how you make VCs open their wallets.
Stay scrappy!
