slidewizard.ai / Changelog

What’s new.

Every update to the PowerPoint add-in and the web app. The add-in is currently in closed beta.

Slide animations, icon library and presentation mode

Animations

  • New: Animate. The AI plans how a slide builds up and sets it as native PowerPoint animations
  • Works in the add-in, in the web app and through the agent, and the web app plays the animations back

Icons

  • Our own icon library with more than 2,000 icons in one consistent style
  • Browse by category or search in German and English. Icons take on your brand colour
  • The icon library works without an AI plan. Only AI icons need one

Web app

  • Presentation mode: present your deck straight from the browser
  • Editing a slide updates it in place and keeps earlier versions
  • Pick a proven design from the layout library when you create a slide
  • Voice input for every text field
  • Fully available in German

Masters and company style

  • Several masters per organisation, each with its own slide format
  • The slidewizard standard master comes in two formats, is ready to use without setup and has a footer for sources and notes
  • Your feedback on slides turns into proposals for your company style

Agent and slides

  • The agent suggests an agenda and chapter dividers for longer decks
  • AI images start as soon as their frame is ready, so slides finish sooner
  • Downloaded decks open in PowerPoint without a repair prompt

Layout library, company master and more web app

Layouts

  • New layout library with proven slide designs, searchable and sorted by category
  • Inserted layouts take on the colours of your deck
  • When creating a slide, slidewizard suggests matching designs from the library

Company style

  • Company master and house rules now belong together in one company style
  • Import the master from a PowerPoint file in the web app
  • For blank decks the add-in suggests a clean slidewizard master
  • You confirm the slide area once per deck

Web app

  • Rebuild a slide from a screenshot or photo, now in the web app too
  • The agent shows the deck live while it works and suggests generating the slides once the storyline is ready
  • New setting: apply the agent’s changes automatically, only ask before deleting, or always ask
  • Downloaded decks keep their agenda, and the add-in can update it

Add-in

  • Available in German and English, with a manual language switch
  • Open usage, history, company style and billing straight from the add-in without signing in again
  • Agenda slides look the same in the web app and in the add-in

Slides and exports

  • Editing a slide keeps its pictures
  • New look for the live preview while slides are being built, with animated image placeholders
  • Sources appear only once in exports

Privacy

  • Export your data and delete your account yourself, with a grace period
  • Agent chats can only be read by the person who wrote them

Company style and AI images

Company style

  • Import your brand guide as PDF, PowerPoint, Word or text. slidewizard proposes the rules, each with the page it comes from
  • Review the rules, set them as mandatory or recommended, check the result in a preview and keep versions
  • Applies automatically to every slide, in the web app and in the add-in. The add-in shows in the input field when your company style is active

AI images

  • Where a slide needs a picture, the AI sets an image frame and fills it with an AI photo in your deck colours
  • Your own photo area in the add-in, like the icons
  • Image generation on Auto, On or Off, for your slides and for the agent
