Example brief

Create a five-stage maturity staircase for our home improvement supply chain. We are currently at Level 2 with basic store visibility and aim to reach Level 4 for industrialized algorithmic replenishment by 2026. The slide needs to emphasize that we cannot skip to autonomous vendor management without first fixing our core automated flow logic. Include a warning about data quality and RFID tagging requirements.

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 Supply chain efficiency is currently descriptive; the 2026 goal is high-scale algorithmic replenishment 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.
