Example brief
The current data product maturity score is 68, which falls into the Scaling zone, below the FY26 target of 80. The Scaling zone ranges from 40 to 70, indicating that while progress has been made, there is still room for improvement to reach the Industrialized zone, which starts at 70. The target for FY26 is set at 80, and the current score of 68 is 12 points below this target. To move forward, the program needs to focus on governed product operations, addressing inconsistencies in SLAs, quality monitoring, and funding ownership.

Frequently asked questions
How do I render the Threshold-zone gauge template?
Send a POST to /v1/render/auto with a brief, or call create_slide via MCP with the structured intent shown below. The response includes an editable .pptx, a PDF, and a PNG. $0.05 per slide.
Does an AI write the slide?
No. SlideForge renders deterministically from a structured intent — no LLM draws the slide, so text is never mangled or fabricated. The optional brief path uses a router to pick the pattern, then renders deterministically.
Can I customize the colors and fonts?
Yes. Pass a theme_id to apply a built-in or custom brand theme; the layout stays the same.
