Example brief

Create the closing references slide for an academic engineering deck citing six works: a structural systems textbook (MIT Press 2024, chapters 4-6), Eurocode 3 EN 1993-1-1, a tension structures monograph, the Munich Olympic Stadium ArchDaily case documentation, a 2025 cable-net monitoring study with DOI, and a PTFE membrane durability review.

Structured intent — create_slide payload

Copy-paste-ready. Renders deterministically (verbatim, no LLM). Add a theme_id for any of the built-in themes — the layout stays identical.

Frequently asked questions

How do I render the References & Sources 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.
