AIs for supercharging your next deck 🧑‍💻

Hey AI Puppies,

No matter what you do for work or the type of business you hope to launch, there’s one task professionals in every field have in common: creating decks, presentations, and pitches.

While some of us love crafting creative decks, others don’t have the time or patience to create presentation-worthy slides 🥱 In fact…

It takes an average of 2 hours and 52 minutes to make just 10 slides on PowerPoint, and up to 5 hours for 30-slide presentations 🫢

So, instead of bugging your colleagues for design help, taking the L with lackluster presentations, or wasting hours every week, we have a better idea 👀

That’s right, puppies! This week, we’re exploring three different AI tools for creating stunning decks in just a few minutes ⚡

Keep reading to meet:

👉Slides.AI, a Google Slides-friendly library of templates and images

👉Slides.com, a favorite of non-designers

👉Beautiful.AI, a solid option for enterprise teams

👉DeckRobot, a data-focused tool for charts, graphs, and data visualizations

Love Google Slides? Try Slides.AI

Think of Slides.AI as a Chrome extension, but only for Google Slides. Like any other Google Add-On, it’s super easy to install and super easy to use!

Plus, Slides.AI is free for 3 presentations a month, then just $10 for 10 per month 👏

Once installed (use this link), all you have to do is:

1. Start a new Google Slides presentation, then click Extensions > SlidesAI.io

2. Enter as much text as you need to explain what you need. In the below example, the user wrote multiple paragraphs!

3. Select from the drop-downs to choose the presentation type of # of slides you want

Here’s what the prompt area looks like:

For extra customization, click Themes and upload your brand colors under Custom:

We love this option because it doesn’t even feel like you’re using AI – it just feels like another one of Google’s many features 🤝

This is a relatively basic option, so you’ll definitely want to edit the results. But with a foundation this fast, you’ll save a ton of time in the early stages of presentation building.

Oh, and it works for over 100 languages 🌍

No Eye for Design? Try Slides.com

If you’re loyal to Open AI and comfortable starting from scratch, Slides.com is for you. The site has been around for a while, but the new AI features took things up a notch 📈

Here’s what to know:

🐾Unlike SlidesAI.io, Slides.com doesn’t generate a complete presentation for you – instead, it’s equipped with handy AI-powered features that fine-tune your deck as you go 🪄

🐾Slides.com doesn’t connect to PowerPoint or Google Slides – you work directly within the web app (of course you can always export later)

🐾Slides.com supports live collaboration with multiple colleagues!

Okay, so the AI piece. Similar to Canva, you’ll see a sparkle emoji on every element of your deck. Click it, and depending on the section you’re working on, you’ll see menus that look something like these.

For copy:

For outline ideas:

For image editing:

Think of Slides.com as an AI-powered, real-time presentation editor!

Prices start at $5/month for unlimited private presentations and 50 AI prompts/month.

Happy editing ✨

Need Enterprise Scale? Try Beautiful.AI

For enterprise-level businesses, it’s tough to beat Beautiful.AI, a tool trusted by massive companies like Uber, Salesforce, AT&T, and many others ⭐

Like Slides.com, Beautiful.AI has been around for years, but recently leveled things up with generative AI 👏

Unlike Slides.com, however, Beautiful.AI users have access to DesignerBot. Here’s how the company describes it:

“DesignerBot is a powerful creative partner that designs slides quickly, helps brainstorm ideas and generates text and images in a snap. All you have to do is ask, and watch DesignerBot generate a unique deck for you in seconds.”

So, think of the DesignerBot as ChatGPT and Midjourney in one, plus a presentation-specific editor ✍️

Users start with your usual AI prompt:

Then start customizing with easy-to-add AI suggestions and powerful image generation:

Despite its flashy features, it’s not as pricey as you’d think. Individual plans start at $12/month and team plans start at $40/user per month.

Tired of Formatting? Try DeckRobot

Microsoft users, don’t fret – we have a tool just for you, too! DeckRobot is a PowerPoint plug-in that claims to lower screen time by 80% 👀

The goal is simple: to reduce how much repetitive clicking it takes to make decks uniform, consistent, and polished.

DataRobot is especially powerful for companies that need to:

🤖Work within strict brand guides and style requirements

🤖Maintain an extremely professional, corporate feel

🤖Contextualize complex data

From generating alternative designs quickly to sending slides to API to formatting entire decks in a flash, the full list of features is sure to impress.
