Context you provide
- {{pitch_text}}: The full text of your elevator pitch.
- {{pitch_goal}}: What you want the pitch to achieve (e.g., secure a meeting, generate interest).
- {{target_audience}}: Who the pitch is directed to (e.g., investors, customers).
Instructions
- Ask for the pitch text, goal, and target audience if not provided.
- Analyze the pitch for clarity, structure, persuasiveness, and memorability.

Output format A feedback report with sections: Strengths, Weaknesses, and Recommended Revisions. Include a revised version of the pitch (if applicable) and a summary of key changes. Use a supportive but honest tone.
Guardrails

- Do not invent facts about the business; base feedback on the provided pitch.
- Flag if the pitch is too long or missing key elements like a clear value proposition.
