Pitchly provides a SaaS platform for non-technical users to create data-infused real-time PowerPoint and Word documents linked to internal business data wherever it may live. Typically, before Pitchly, this work takes place in disconnected and inefficient tools like Excel, Word, PowerPoint, Sharepoint, or IT-owned databases. The platform aggregates disparate information sources, making information easy to catalog, find, and produce compelling and relevant data-driven Word and PowerPoint documents. This generates a 93% reduction in time to create data-heavy documents with 100% error reduction; all in half the time it takes to locate information when compared to traditional approaches. Pitchly end-users can even create custom forms to populate data to those original sources to make certain their teams are using the most relevant and up-to-date data. It aggregates digital data sources, such as Excel, SQL, Salesforce, and more, into one normalized tabular view of the data to reference, search, filter, and then integrate into documents and presentations in real-time. The platform gives the ability to easily publish select information from your database(s) on a website, in various digital forms.
