# Build Your Nock
A playbook to turn an investor's own recorded pitch meetings into a reusable lens (a "Nock" of your own)
that reviews any founder's deck the way *they* would — surfacing the questions they'd ask and the gaps
they'd push on.
The output is a second skill (like `nock`) personalized to the investor: a `question-bank.md`
(their recurring questions, by theme) + a `principles.md` (the bar beneath the questions), plus the
logic to apply both to a deck.
The flow: **pull → filter → extract → distill → calibrate against a few real decks → finalize.** The
calibration step (Stage A5) is what turns a plausible lens into one that actually sounds like the investor —
it asks them to upload a handful of named decks and checks the lens's predictions against what they really
asked in those meetings.
## The architecture — and the one seam that matters
Two stages, separated by a privacy seam:
```
STAGE A — DISTILL (private, on your machine, uses raw transcripts)
your recorded pitch meetings ──► your "lens": question-bank.md + principles.md
↑ raw transcripts never leave this stage
STAGE B — APPLY (shareable: the anonymized lens only)
a founder's deck + your lens ──► questions you'd ask + what's missing
```
The distilled, **anonymized** lens is the only artifact safe to hand a founder. Raw transcripts and real
company names stay local. Build with that seam in mind from step one.
