Fact 8
Morgan Chen is leaning toward a tighter fundraising-deck metrics section covering net new ARR, retention shape, expansion by cohort, and one customer slide using actual customer names rather than anonymous logos.

ok so B stuff is finally in a real state. deck v2 is decent now, not done-done but the story tracks and the ugly chart problems are mostly down to 2 slides instead of 8. Devon's notes helped. i've got ~8 intro calls booked for early Feb, mostly where i wanted them, and the lead-firm meeting is locked for week 2. still think partner-level chemistry matters way more than people admit at this stage, so i'm treating the first calls as filtering not just pitching. also trying not to let us wander into enterprise-AI wallpaper language in the deck -- if we say "developer workflow" one more vague time i'll delete the whole page lol. leaning keep the metrics section tighter: net new ARR, retention shape, expansion by cohort, then one customer slide with actual names and not anonymous logo soup. that's probably enough.
