Brevity Pitch assists entrepreneurs and other users with a three-step process that starts with providing frameworks for everything from 30-second elevator pitches to TED talks. The goal is to help users answer essential questions for their defined target audience, including clear communication about their idea and why it works, upside potential and proof of concept, and leaders’ ability to execute market strategy.
Brevity also provides analytics for improving clarity, enhancing succinctness, and using language that connects with the target audience. Users can also take advantage of peer feedback loops, sharing content to gather suggestions for sharpening their message.
