I suspect your best bet is to reframe your solution if the technology or market need can present a gap on a chart, as a whole new startup
e.g.
"b20000s app/standanrd $industry app": 60% success
b40000: Shiny and Fancy. With AIMLGPT machines. And all. 80% success"
Basically you are probably lacking urgency and humans tend to rest a lot of assumptions on some urgency, especially for business.
At least don't start by introducing the existing business. At best say you've spent x years as a CEO/CTO etc, and pull your experience in to answer questions, as well as clarify the situation if needed.
