Example brief

The goal is to convert partner interest into a certified pipeline within the first 90 days, with specific milestones including finalizing partner segmentation, publishing the joint value proposition, and selecting 12 launch partners in the first 30 days, followed by certifying 40 sellers and loading plays into the content hub between days 31-60, and ultimately opening 25 qualified opportunities and reviewing the attach rate with the channel between days 61-90, with the caution that partner recruitment without AE enablement may not yield the desired pipeline results.

Frequently asked questions

How do I render the Now / next / later horizons 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.
