AI and charts AI-Slide-Engine

Charts that take instructions.

Describe the chart and the AI builds it, restyles it or updates a number. When it adds callouts, icons or a target line, it reads the chart first and places them exactly on the data. The chart itself stays untouched.

Create, restyle, change a number: you say what the chart should show. The result is a native PowerPoint chart in your master, data sheet included.

Gantt

Project plans with a consulting look.

Phases, tasks, owners and milestones with a today line. The timeline scales to calendar weeks, months or years on its own, and long labels wrap cleanly.

  • Reached milestones fill in automatically
  • Status column with Harvey balls
Gantt chart with phases, milestones and today line

Editing

Fewer clicks to a finished chart.

Hands on, not dialog boxes

Adjust values, labels and spacing right on the slide, like any other PowerPoint shape.

Arrows that do the maths

CAGR and difference arrows place themselves and work out the value for you.

Numbers that stay current

Once the chart is linked to Excel, one click pulls in the latest numbers from your workbook.

On brand from the start

Charts take on the colours of your master automatically.

FAQ

Questions about charts

Are the charts real PowerPoint objects?

Yes. Charts are built from native PowerPoint shapes and text, so colleagues without the add-in can edit them too. With the free add-in you also edit them right on the slide.

Do I need the AI features for charts?

No. All chart types and on-slide editing are part of the free add-in. With the AI features, the AI also builds charts from your data when it creates slides for you.

Can I keep my data in Excel?

Yes. Paste a range into the data sheet, or link an Excel range so the chart stays connected to your workbook.

Which chart types are coming next?

Marimekko, scatter, bubble, area, butterfly and funnel charts are in the works. We will announce them in the changelog.
