Roadmap
What's shipping. What's coming.
Three tiers. The MVP is shipping now with WATA as customer #1. Tier 2 (marketplace + investor accounts) lands ~3 months later. Tier 3 (US/EU tax schemes + AI features) follows.
Tier 1 · MVP
What ships first.
The wedge: a multi-tenant deck engine with the live presence, calculator, and inline-editor pieces that make Narriv worth using.
Shipping · 6-8 weeks · WATA migrates as customer #1
Multi-tenant deck engine
ShippingAuth, allowlist, tracking, comments, events, NDA gate, round-terms cascade, inline editor with undo.
Founder dashboard + admin
ShippingTabbed nav (Dashboard / Viewers / Conversations / Edits / Settings), per-viewer drawer, presence dots, dwell heatmap.
Per-recipient variants
Shipping5 narratives per deck. Section-level rules. Variant editor pill rail with per-variant text overrides.
UK EIS/SEIS calculator
ShippingFounder-configurable round terms cascade through to investor-side calc. Effective cost, CGT exemption, loss relief.
Email automation
ShippingFOMO commitment emails, daily cold-lead digest, weekly round-state digest, founder-authored broadcasts. All with one-click unsubscribe.
Realtime alerts (Telegram + in-app + email)
ShippingOne-click Telegram setup via shared Narriv bot (no BotFather), in-app push, email fallback. Per-event mute toggles.
Stripe billing, 3 tiers + slider
ShippingFree / Founder slider / Team slider. Credit packs stack on top. Same-domain founder ↔ IFA pricing.
Deck creation
ShippingBlank template + upload-existing-PDF (Claude API extracts sections). No fancy regen at MVP.
Pulse, AI co-pilot
ShippingOn-deck investor Q&A, founder edit-mode review, daily activity summaries. Credit-based, 25/mo free, 250+/mo on Founder.
FCA s21 compliance pill
ShippingEvery UK pitch deck is a financial promotion under FCA s21. Narriv stamps the regulator-approved disclosure on every variant by default; bump the version to force re-acknowledgement.
AI summary slide / 60s pitch
ShippingPulse reads the full deck and generates a one-paragraph elevator pitch + a 60-second read-aloud version. Drops in as the cover slide so investors get the gist before they commit reading time. Founders preview it on the dashboard.
Deck quality score
Shipping0-100 score with sub-scores for clarity, numbers backing, story arc, risks addressed, CTA strength. Pulse reviews on every save and flags the three biggest issues for founders to fix before sending.
Pulse Mode 1 (Engagement) + Mode 2 (Assessment)
ShippingFounders see Mode 1 (engagement read with AI summary, 60s pitch, sub-score bars, severity-chip fix list). Investors see Mode 2 (radar chart, same scores) — the assessment that travels with the deck. Two modes, one toggle, ported from wata-deck v2 admin.
Same-domain founder ↔ investor audience toggle
ShippingBig pill below the wedge title flips the landing between Founder and Investor surfaces — different perks, different pricing tiers, different sign-up flow. URL tracks it for deep links. Carta-pattern, no domain split.
Role-aware dashboard (founder + investor)
Shipping/dashboard renders FounderDashboard or InvestorDashboard based on role pill. Founder sees decks + pending actions + recent activity. Investor sees decks-I'm-reading pipeline, AI summary on every card, status filter, save/compare/run-numbers per deck.
Investor pipeline tools — Compare, Saved searches, Run my numbers
ShippingCompare-2-decks side-by-side modal. Saved searches with sector / stage / ticket / EIS filters + alert frequency (off/weekly/instant), persisted in localStorage. Per-deck Run-my-numbers that wires the EIS calc against the deck's round terms.
Pending actions panel for founders
ShippingTop of /dashboard for founders: questions waiting to answer, commitments to approve, drift to nudge, round-update overdue. Each row links to the relevant tenant-admin sub-page. Cuts the 'where do I start today?' moment.
Notification bell + account menu
ShippingPer-role notification feed (commits, comments, drift, Pulse-noticed for founders; deck invites, Pulse replies, broadcasts for investors) with unread counts + Mark-all-read. Account menu replaces the avatar circle: profile, settings, billing or WM upgrade, sign out.
Tier 2 · Marketplace + investor side
Where the network effect kicks in.
The positioning sharpens: the EIS/SEIS marketplace where founders meet vetted capital, with the conversation surface built in.
~3 months after MVP
Investor accounts (free)
ShippingWorkspace listing every deck founders sent you. AI 60s summary + Pulse quality score on every card. Status pipeline (reviewing / interested / passed / committed). Saved star, side-by-side compare, run-my-numbers per deck. Live in the investor view of /dashboard.

Free-form canvas editor
SoonDrag-drop boxes (text / image / shape / embed) onto a slide with snap-to-grid + Figma-style alignment guides. Templates stay for typographic discipline; this is the escape hatch for bespoke pages. Narriv-only — WATA's deck stays hand-coded. ~6-8 dev days MVP.
Embedded video per section
SoonFounder shoots a 60s 'why this section matters' clip. Deck plays it inline.
AI deck-from-URL
SoonPaste your website + answer 5 prompts. Claude drafts a 12-section first cut you can polish.
Live data drop-ins
SoonStripe MRR widget, Xero P&L, Shopify revenue auto-updating in the deck (read-only).
Multi-seat admin (Owner / Admin / Editor / Viewer)
ShippingTeam + permissions card in tenant Settings: invite by email, role select per member, role descriptions, missing-owner warning. UI live; persistence wires up with auth.
White label
SoonPremium add-on. No Narriv branding for tenants who want their deck to feel fully theirs.
WhatsApp + iMessage alerts
SoonSame per-event routing as Telegram, delivered to WhatsApp Business and iMessage Business Chat.
Native iOS + Android app
SoonPush notifications, offline access to your dashboard, biometric admin auth. Same engine, packaged.
Slide-level engagement heatmap

Deck-version drift detection
ShippingDrift banner on the tenant admin warns when viewers are on an older deck version than the latest published. One-click 'fresh version' nudge. Pinned in /dashboard pending-actions panel too.
FCA COBS 9A suitability auto-doc
SoonTeam tier IFA workflow: model the deal against a client risk profile, suitability letter generated as PDF, signed + filed with audit trail. Compliance moat.
NDA auto-doc + tracked link
SoonOn NDA tickbox acceptance, generate a real PDF (UK + international templates, lawyer-reviewed), email tracked viewable link to both founder + viewer, store executed PDFs for 7 years. Render-to-PDF via Puppeteer. ~£0.001 per doc cost basis. Included in subscription, no per-doc credit.
Deck flexibility pack — bespoke admin gestures from wata-deck
SoonMirror the wata-deck Tier 1 'I want to change X' inventory: per-section slide-hide pill (variant-aware), per-investor section hide-list, source-link bubbles via place-mode + percentage-of-section coords, runtime growth-lever toggles, in-deck modal primitive, 'Duplicate this page as variant' admin gesture, parametric calculations beyond round-terms, toggle boxes with founder-placed CTAs (Express Interest / Request financials / Open data room). Override schema identical to wata-deck so WATA migration is data-copy not rebuild.
Tier 3 · Expansion
Vertical and geographic.
EU + US tax schemes. Sales / proposal decks (different lane, same engine). The clever AI bits worth circling back on once the founder side is loved.
6+ months
Deal-structure / term-sheet auto-doc
LaterUK seed term sheet generated from round-terms cascade + per-investor commitment row. SEIS/EIS Compliance Statement embedded. DocuSign embedded signing.

KYC/AML offloaded to partner. UK-only at launch. Don't start the AR conversation until Tier 2 has 50+ paying tenants + £500k flowing off-platform. Full plan in CONTRACTS_DESIGN.md.
US QSBS calculator
LaterSection 1202 capital-gains exclusion after 5y. Same effective-cost wedge for the US founder market.

Narriv for Sales (sub-brand)

Pulse, Investor matching
