From case brief to final deck, faster.
Finalist is a coach for case competitions. It breaks down the brief, keeps your research organised, challenges your thinking and checks your deck against the judging criteria. You do the thinking; Finalist keeps you on track.
For business, corporate and product case competitions.
Five steps, one place
- 1
Brief
Paste the case and rules. Get the core question, constraints, slide limit and how you'll be judged, quoted from the rules.
- 2
Research
The questions your answer depends on, each with a ready prompt for ChatGPT, Claude or Perplexity. Keep answers and sources together.
- 3
Structure
Build your issue tree and recommendation. The coach points out overlaps, gaps and leaps before a judge does.
- 4
Deck
Write each slide title as a conclusion. Stay within the slide limit, check the storyline and export to PowerPoint.
- 5
Review
Rate your work against the judging criteria and practise the Q&A with questions about your own solution.
A coach, not a ghostwriter
Finalist asks questions and gives feedback. The solution stays yours, which matters when competitions check originality.
No made-up facts
Judging criteria come from the rules you paste, web facts come with links, and when the AI can't answer, it says so.
Use the AI you already like
Do the heavy research in ChatGPT, Claude or Perplexity with ready-made prompts, then bring the answers back to compare.
