Example brief

The FY25 P&L bridge shows revenue of 486 EUR M, with COGS of 284 EUR M, resulting in a gross profit of 202 EUR M. Operating costs, including sales and marketing of 58 EUR M, R&D of 41 EUR M, and G&A of 36 EUR M, reduce EBITDA to 71 EUR M. Further deductions for depreciation, interest, and tax lead to a net income of 33 EUR M, highlighting the impact of operating-cost intensity on EBITDA conversion.

Frequently asked questions

How do I render the Multi-anchor subtotal bridge 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.
