Example brief
Create a positioning map of the commercial bakery landscape for our Q3 board deck. The slide should plot various competitors based on their commercial scale-readiness on the X-axis and their artisanal craft depth on the Y-axis. Group the competitors into four categories: Mass-Premium, Regional Leaders, Wholesale Utility, and Specialty Boutique. Highlight Heritage Grain Co. and Artisan Millworks as the primary benchmarks for achieving high performance in both scale and premium craft. Ensure the labels reflect realistic industry players and the axes clearly define the trade-off between industrial volume and artisanal quality.

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 Category landscape map 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.
