AI pitch deck generator: describe your raise, get the deck

A pitch deck has to make one business case clear to one kind of reader, and a blank template leaves the argument and the evidence to you. Tell Slaide what the company does, what progress you can show and what the money will change: it plans, writes and designs each slide from scratch and checks the layout before you see it.

In short

Slaide is an AI pitch deck generator: describe your company, your traction and the round, attach a business plan or financial model if you have one, and it plans, writes and designs the investor deck, then checks each slide's layout. You edit the result in Slaide and export an editable PowerPoint file or a PDF. The free plan builds the first 3 slides of one deck, no credit card needed.

Start with words or attach a business plan, Excel model, PowerPoint, PDF or notes, and review every figure and claim before you send the deck. The example on this page uses a fictional company.

What Slaide does

  • AI-generated structure and content

    Slaide plans the slide sequence, writes every section, and designs the layout. Give it your actual evidence so the argument is about your company, not a generic startup.

  • No template required

    Every deck is designed fresh from your brief. Structure adapts to your round and your story.

  • Reads your existing files (PDF/Excel)

    Attach a business plan, financial model or one-pager. Slaide uses them as source material; check the figures and labels in the finished deck.

  • Self-corrects before showing you

    Slaide renders and reviews each page before delivery, then fixes layout problems it finds. You still make the final business and factual review.

How it works

  1. Describe the raise

    Tell Slaide what the company sells, whom it serves, your stage, evidence of traction, the planned raise and use of funds. Say when a figure is still unknown.

  2. Add your files (optional)

    Upload a business plan, financial model, customer notes or an existing deck. Ask Slaide to distinguish confirmed facts from assumptions.

  3. Slaide generates

    Slaide plans the story, writes and designs the slides, and checks their layout. Review the proposed narrative and flag anything it inferred incorrectly.

  4. Edit and export

    Click any text to edit it or describe a change to the AI. Export a PowerPoint file with editable text boxes, shapes, pictures and speaker notes, or send a PDF.

Build an AI investor deck from your own files

Attach the business plan for the narrative, the financial model (.xlsx) for the numbers and a CSV export of monthly revenue or customers for the traction chart. Say which file wins when two disagree, and ask Slaide to mark estimates and leave unknown values open.

A chart is only as credible as its source: check the date range, the currency and that forecasts are labelled. Web research shows its sources in the run activity, not automatically on the slides, so add a source line wherever an investor needs one.

AI deck generator for investor, sales and board decks

An investor deck argues for funding, a sales deck for a specific purchase, and a board deck for an operating decision. The same company facts may appear in all three, but their order and detail should change.

Tell Slaide which one you need. For investors it leads with the problem, traction and the ask; for a sales meeting with the prospect's problem, your offer and a next step; for the board with results against plan, risks and the decisions needed.

Pitch deck mistakes to catch before the meeting

  • An invented market total

    Show the customer definition and calculation. If inputs are uncertain, label the estimate or remove it.

  • Traction without a period

    Give dates and metric definitions. Separate signed customers from pilots and pipeline.

  • A generic ask

    Connect funding to milestones and say what changes if the plan changes.

Pitch deck guides and next steps

FAQ

Anything missing? Ask us

Is this a real pitch deck, not slides with placeholders?

Yes. Slaide writes the actual content for every slide from your brief and any files you attach. There is no placeholder text to fill in.

Can ChatGPT make a pitch deck, and how is Slaide different?

ChatGPT can draft an outline and slide text, and ChatGPT Work and the ChatGPT for PowerPoint add-in can create editable slides, with limited use on Free and Go. OpenAI itself names limits with templates, charts and shapes. Slaide builds the whole designed deck from your brief and files, checks each slide's layout and exports PowerPoint or PDF.

Which files can I attach to an AI pitch deck?

PDF, Word (.docx), Excel (.xlsx), CSV, PowerPoint (.pptx), images and text notes. A business plan supplies the story, a financial model the numbers and a CSV export the traction chart. Older .ppt, .doc and .xls files need to be saved in the current format first.

Can I edit the pitch deck in PowerPoint?

Yes. The .pptx has real text boxes, shapes, pictures and, if you asked for them, speaker notes in PowerPoint's notes pane. Charts stay visible and become editable shapes or an image, depending on the chart.

How many slides does it generate?

You set the length in your brief; a typical seed deck runs 10 to 14 slides. Plus builds up to 12 slides per document, Pro and Max have no page limit. The free plan plans up to 12 slides and builds the first 3.

How long does it take to make a pitch deck?

A short deck is usually ready in a few minutes, and Slaide shows each step while it works. Web research, long attachments and more slides add time.

Does the free export have a watermark?

Yes, free exports carry a small Slaide badge. Plus, Pro and Max export without it.

What does an AI pitch deck cost?

Free covers one deck: Slaide plans all slides and builds the first 3, no credit card. Plus costs €7.99 a month, or €5.99 a month billed yearly, and exports without the badge; Pro and Max have no page limit.

How does Slaide handle confidential pitch material and GDPR?

Accounts, uploads and documents are stored with Supabase in the EU. To generate the deck, the needed content goes through OpenRouter in the USA to the language model, and training on customer content is contractually excluded. Transfers rely on the EU-US Data Privacy Framework, otherwise on the EU's standard contractual clauses.
