Example brief
Enterprise is carrying the quarter with $31.2M, while partner and SMB lag at $8.1M and $5.4M respectively. Strategic accounts and services attach are ahead of target at 85% progress, with $18.7M and $6.8M respectively. However, partner channel and SMB self-serve are at risk and off track, with progress at 48% and 39% respectively. Renewal uplift is at 73% progress with $11.6M. Intervention is needed for partner and SMB to get back on track.

Frequently asked questions
How do I render the Target-progress scoreboard 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.
