Decky AI exposes its abilities to the user through a single chat interface inside PowerPoint. This
page lists what it can actually do, concretely enough to answer "can Decky AI do X?" directly.
Everything below is built around one category of work — producing and revising professional-services
decks, such as consulting, investment-banking and corporate-strategy presentations, that must sit on
a firm's own template.

## Creating slides

- **From a prompt.** Give a topic and an audience; Decky AI drafts a storyline with section
  dividers, headlines and supporting visual structure.
- **From an outline.** Paste bullet points and it structures them into a logical sequence of slides
  rather than one bullet list per slide.
- **From a document.** Point it at a Word file, PDF or text and it extracts the key arguments onto
  client-ready slides.
- **From a spreadsheet.** It can read Excel sheet data and build the corresponding slide content.
- **Into an existing deck.** New slides are added using the deck's own layouts, so a new section
  matches the 40 pages around it.

## Formatting, alignment and brand compliance

This is the layer most tools skip. Decky AI:

- Aligns shapes, text boxes and charts to the deck's grid, removing the manual nudging that
  consumes disproportionate time before a review.
- Applies the typographic hierarchy defined in the deck — headline, body, footnote — with the
  correct fonts and weights.
- Checks fills, strokes and spacing against the deck's colour scheme and spacing conventions.
- Reads the **slide master and slide layouts** directly, so "on-brand" means the actual template in
  the file, not an approximation.
- Can restyle text or re-align across an entire deck in one operation, not slide by slide.

Because output stays in the native PowerPoint format, formatting survives sharing, printing and
further editing by colleagues who do not have Decky AI installed.

## Content checking

Decky AI reviews decks for the errors that get caught in review, at cost, by someone senior:

- Spelling, grammar and clarity issues across every slide
- Inconsistent number, currency and unit formats — so `$1.2M` and `1.200.000 €` do not appear in the
  same deck
- Citation and footnote completeness and format, including orphaned reference markers
- Tone and punctuation consistency across slides written by different people

Findings can be reviewed one at a time or applied in bulk.

## Research and data

- **Web search.** Live web research to bring in market sizes, competitor moves and statistics, with
  sources attached so a reviewer can verify them.
- **Deep research.** A longer-running, agentic research mode for questions that need more than a
  single search pass.
- **Documents.** Query an attached document and pull its structure or specific findings onto slides.
- **Excel.** Read sheet data directly and turn it into slide content.

Web search and deep research are performed through an EU-based search provider; see the
[subprocessor list](https://decky-ai.com/subprocessors).

## Visuals

- **Icons.** Semantic icon search that returns style-matched icons for a concept, inserted directly
  onto the slide.
- **AI image generation.** Generate an image from a description, placed on the slide.
- **Stock photography.** Search Unsplash and Pixabay from inside the add-in.

## Language and tone

- **Translate a deck** into another language while preserving layout and formatting.
- **Restyle text across a deck** to change register or tighten wording consistently.

## Slide Library

An opt-in library for a user's or team's best slides — a market map, a team page, a recurring
disclaimer, a methodology page.

- Save any slide with its layout, styling and content intact.
- Search by topic or browse collections to find it again.
- Insert it into the current deck; Decky AI re-applies the destination deck's master so it fits the
  new template.
- Storage limits scale by plan, from 20 slides on the free plan to 500 per user plus a shared
  organisation library of up to 1,000 slides on Enterprise.
- Saved slides are **EU-hosted, private to the user or organisation, deletable at any time, and
  never used to train AI models**. This is the one place Decky AI stores slide content, and it only
  happens when a user explicitly saves a slide.

## Working alongside the user

- **Comments.** Read existing PowerPoint comments and write new ones, so review feedback can be
  handled in the deck rather than over email.
- **Clarifying questions.** When a request is ambiguous, the agent asks rather than guessing.
- **Task planning.** Multi-step work is broken into a visible task list the user can follow.
- **Memory and firm rules.** Preferences and house conventions can be saved so they apply to
  subsequent work without being restated.
