Capabilities

Built for Strategy Teams

Every feature is designed for the demands of consulting-grade deliverables — from board presentations to client proposals.

AI Prompt Generation

Describe your slide in plain English. The AI selects the best archetype and generates realistic consulting data.

68 Slide Archetypes

From SWOT to BCG Matrix, Porter's Five Forces to ESG Scorecards — every consulting slide type, pre-built.

Token-Driven Styling

BrandTokens control every color, font, and spacing value. Zero hardcoded styles. Full brand consistency.

Deterministic Rendering

Same input always produces the same output. SHA-256 hash verification ensures reproducibility.

QA Text Fitting

Automatic font-size reduction when text overflows. No clipping, no manual adjustment needed.

Replace & Refine

Update individual slide components without rebuilding the entire deck. Surgical precision editing.
