Example brief

A detailed project roadmap for a family-owned vineyard's 2026 modernization efforts. The slide tracks key milestones from soil preparation in March through to the final certification audit in December. It highlights that while early viticulture tasks and the harvest automation pilot are proceeding well, there is a significant risk regarding the technical calibration of the new bottling line in October which could delay the entire commercial release schedule.

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 Milestone timeline 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.
