Frequently asked questions
AI-generated answers based on this skill's SKILL.md and metadata
How do I create a presentation from my notes with skill-deck?
skill-deck transforms your notes into a polished presentation through a four-step pipeline. Start by clarifying your audience and scope, then optionally have skill-deck research your topic. Next, build and approve a slide outline tailored to your audience—choose from templates for executives, engineers, investors, or mixed audiences. Finally, export your deck directly to PPTX format.
Can skill-deck generate slides for an investor pitch?
Yes. skill-deck includes a dedicated investor pitch template that structures your deck with market data, traction metrics, and fundraising narratives. The guided pipeline helps you clarify your pitch's scope and audience, research relevant market context if needed, build a compelling outline, and export a professional PPTX ready for investor meetings.
What formats does skill-deck accept as input?
skill-deck accepts briefs, outlines, notes, markdown, and text-based content. You can feed it research notes, bullet points, or rough topic descriptions, and the four-step pipeline will structure that raw material into a formatted slide outline before exporting to PPTX.
How quickly can skill-deck create a professional deck?
skill-deck accelerates presentation creation by automating outline generation and template selection. After you clarify your audience and optionally let skill-deck research your topic, the system builds and presents a slide outline for your approval. Once approved, export to PPTX is immediate, letting you produce professional decks in minutes rather than hours.
Does skill-deck offer templates for different audiences?
skill-deck provides tailored templates for executives, engineers, investors, and mixed audiences. Each template ensures your deck hits the right tone and structure for its intended viewers. The guided pipeline helps you select the right template during the audience-and-scope clarification step.
Can I build a board presentation with skill-deck?
Yes. skill-deck's executive template is designed for board and leadership presentations. Clarify your audience as board-level, let skill-deck research context if needed, build your outline using the executive template, and export to PPTX. The result is a polished deck tailored to boardroom standards and expectations.
