In plain English

vs-ir-eval is a public prompt and skill package for reviewing startup pitch materials, investor decks, and business plans. It is designed to give founders and coaches feedback from an early-stage venture mentoring perspective, asking practical questions about customer validation, defensibility, team quality, and the path to revenue and eventual exit. The package defines three operating modes. Coaching mode asks pressure questions, surfaces missing evidence, and suggests next steps for the founder without leading with a score. Screening mode produces a compact one-page memo with a grade, key risks, and follow-up checks. Full report mode generates a longer diagnostic covering team, market, defensibility, scalability, strategy, market research, comparables, and an investor search guide. Evaluations are scored across five dimensions: team, market, defensibility, scale and exit potential, and strategic fit. The weighting of those dimensions shifts by company stage: team matters most at the earliest stage and scale matters most for companies that have been operating seven or more years. Scores map to grade bands from Needs Work to Excellent, though the documentation stresses that these grades are ordering aids and should not be used as pass or fail signals. The framework references evaluation criteria from several well-known venture firms and is available in both English and Korean. It includes clear limits on what the public version is allowed to do: founder coaching and externally shareable critique only. Internal features such as database lookups, email handling, and internal report delivery belong in a separate private version not included here. The README states explicitly that this tool is a preparation and mentoring aid, not investment advice, and that all outputs must be verified through founder meetings, customer validation, and human judgment before any use in a real decision.

Copy-paste prompts

Prompt 1
Using the vs-ir-eval coaching mode framework, review my pitch deck and ask me the pressure questions a venture mentor would ask about customer validation, team quality, and defensibility. Do not give me a score yet, just surface what evidence is missing.
Prompt 2
Act as a startup screener using vs-ir-eval screening mode. Read my one-pager below and produce a compact memo with a letter grade, the top three risks, and the follow-up questions an investor would ask before a second meeting.
Prompt 3
Using vs-ir-eval's five scoring dimensions, team, market, defensibility, scale/exit potential, and strategic fit, evaluate my startup. We are in year two of operation, so weight team and market most heavily. Output a score per dimension and an overall grade band.
Prompt 4
Generate a full vs-ir-eval diagnostic report for my startup covering team, market, defensibility, scalability, strategy, market comparables, and an investor search guide. Flag any areas where I have not yet provided enough evidence.
Prompt 5
My startup is pre-revenue. Using the vs-ir-eval coaching mode, what are the three biggest gaps in my pitch that I need to fix before I can move from Needs Work to Promising on the vs-ir-eval grade scale?
