Creating presentations
AI can help you structure a presentation: slide outlines, talking points, titles, and speaker notes. Start by telling it your audience, goal, and time limit.
Ask for a logical flow: introduction, key points, examples, and conclusion. You can then refine each section. AI is less reliable at visual design — focus on structure and content first.
Build a deck with AI

Define audience and goal

Get an outline
Ask for slide titles and talking points before full slide text.

Refine each section
Iterate on individual slides — shorter, clearer, more visual suggestions.
