Yes, before you start. Slaide works from exactly the text you send and cannot guess your company name, your numbers or your audience. Replace each highlighted placeholder with your own details, or delete the parts that do not apply to you. The form under each prompt counts the placeholders that are still left.
What happens when I start with a prompt?
You create a free account, and Slaide starts on the prompt right after you sign up. The free plan covers 1 document: Slaide plans up to 12 pages and builds the first 3, with a small Slaide mark on the export. No credit card.
Can I use these prompts in ChatGPT or another AI tool?
Yes. They are plain text, so you can paste them into any AI assistant. In Slaide the same prompt produces designed pages that you can edit and export as PowerPoint, Word or PDF.
Rather describe it in your own words?
You do not need a template to start. Describe the document you need, and Slaide plans, writes and designs it. The free plan builds the first 3 pages of one document, no credit card.
