Make Beautiful Presentation Slides with AI in Minutes
Making slides takes a lot of time, from thinking up content to laying out pages. AI can save you hours and help your slides tell a better story.
Step 1: Outline the story
Ask the AI: "Outline a 10-slide presentation on Q3 results for executives, focusing on key figures, problems, and next quarter's plan." You'll get a clear storyline.
Step 2: Write the content for each slide
The key rule is one slide, one point, with no more than 3–5 lines of text. Ask the AI to condense the text into concise bullet points.
Step 3: Design
- Canva has slide templates and AI tools to help with layout
- Google Workspace lets you use Google Slides with an AI assistant
- Create AI illustrations in a consistent style on every slide. See 20 Popular Image Styles
Step 4: Write speaker notes
Have the AI write a script for each slide to help you present smoothly and stay on time.
Step 5: Rehearse with AI
Have the AI play the audience and ask likely questions, for example: "If you were an executive, what would you ask about this slide?"
Design principles for attractive slides
- Use no more than 3 colors
- Make text large enough for people in the back row
- Use images and charts instead of long numbers
- Leave white space to let the design breathe
Build from existing documents
If you already have a report, have the AI summarize it first and then turn it into slides. See Summarize Long Documents with AI.
Sample 10-slide outline
- Slide 1: Title and presenter
- Slide 2: The key message in one sentence
- Slides 3–4: Situation and key figures
- Slides 5–6: Problems and causes
- Slides 7–8: Solutions
- Slide 9: Action plan and owners
- Slide 10: Summary and the decision you need from the audience
Turn numbers into visuals
Ask the AI which data should be shown as a bar chart, line chart, or pie chart to help the audience understand faster.
