Prezent raises $20M to build AI for slide decks


Prezent, a startup developing a platform to create business side decks using AI, has raised a fresh $20 million in cash.

Los Altos-based Prezent, which has a subsidiary in Bengaluru, was founded in 2021 by Rajat Mishra, who previously worked at companies including Cisco and McKinsey. Prezent uses openly available AI models fine-tuned on proprietary data, including a dataset of 2 million slide decks, to power its platform, Mishra says. “DeepSeek recently showed us that AI companies don’t need these massive funding rounds to make a big impact any longer,” Mishra told TechCrunch, adding that Prezent currently has “close to 200” employees, 75% of whom work remotely and are based in India.
