If you're still building decks from scratch, you're wasting hours you could be using to sell. AI for presentations is no longer “just a pretty template”: it designs, writes persuasive messaging, personalizes for each client, and connects to your data to keep everything up to date.
It’s a presentation generated (or co-created) with artificial intelligence tools that:
Automate design (layout, visual hierarchy, style consistency).
Generate persuasive content (headlines, bullet points, cases, objections).
Personalize by segment/client (industry, size, pain points, ROI).
Connect to your CRM to pull metrics, logos, account names, and real-time usage data.
It goes beyond templates: AI adapts format and narrative based on your objective and the client’s profile.
AI reduces hours of layout and copywriting. You don't need to outsource design for every version: just update inputs and generate variations in minutes.
It keeps colors, fonts, and styles aligned without brandbook policing. Fewer mistakes, more focus on messaging.
Create multiple versions of the same deck by vertical, company size, or funnel stage—without starting from scratch.
Objective: schedule a demo, close the deal, unlock budget, align stakeholders.
Audience: C-level, procurement, operations, technical. Adjust depth, metrics, and objections accordingly.
Criteria: ease of use, brand control, component libraries, CRM/Sheets integration, collaborative support, and analytics.
Feed the AI:
Value proposition, key pains by industry, social proof (logos, quotes), common objections and rebuttals, KPIs/ROI.
Client data: industry, size, stack, expected results.
Upload logos, color palette, fonts, icon styles, and master templates. Define rules: max 6 bullets, 1 idea per slide.
Generate charts, infographics, timelines, and process maps from your data. AI suggests the best visual type for each insight.
Ask the AI:
“Detect weak slides,” “simplify this narrative,” “turn this text into a before/after story.”
Export to PPTX, PDF, or web link with analytics (time per slide, button CTR). Enable password/expiration if content is sensitive.
What it does: smart automatic design, layouts that adapt to content.
Ideal for: sales teams wanting consistency and speed without learning design.
What it does: generates slides from a prompt, large image/icon/video library.
Ideal for: teams needing creativity and real-time collaboration.
What it does: builds presentations from text, with the option to publish as a mini-site.
Ideal for: quick narrative demos and interactive decks.
What it does: business-focused (pitch, sales, fundraising) with guided storytelling.
Ideal for: founders and salespeople who need clear structure and a professional look.
Connect your CRM (HubSpot, Salesforce, Pipedrive) to the presentation tool or via middleware. Map fields: account name, vertical, ARR, use cases, metrics.
No-code:
Trigger: stage change (e.g., “Qualified to Buy”).
Actions: create deck copy, inject deal data, notify account owner.
Use AI assistants to update figures (e.g., forecast, product usage) while presenting. Avoid manual edits and reduce errors.
Slide 1–2: Current situation and cost of not changing.
Slide 3–4: Solution + how it solves the pain.
Slide 5: Proof (case study, metrics).
Slide 6: Next steps.
Useful prompt: “Turn these bullets into a 5-slide problem→solution story, executive tone, ≤15 words per bullet.”
Insert logos, figures, quotes, and real charts. Ask the AI to find and summarize the case most relevant to the prospect.
Every deck should end with 1 action: schedule a trial, request evaluation access, integration checklist, budget approval.
Templates don't sell on their own. Adapt messaging to the client's pain points. Change examples and metrics.
AI tends to be verbose. Rule: max 6 bullets, max 15 words per bullet. One idea per slide.
Always check claims, names, figures, and legal info. AI speeds up the process—you ensure accuracy and context.
Use interactive mode with conditional jumps and an “objection index.” Set up alternative responses and slides; some tools allow real-time summaries/answers.
Generally, they allow commercial use, but check each platform’s terms (and avoid trademarks/protected content).
Use tracked links or viewers with analytics: time per slide, revisits, clicks, downloads. Connect to your CRM to attribute to stages and closing probability.
