Example brief
Create a month release grid titled 'Q2 ship dates across the April train' for April 2027 (starts Thursday, 30 days): Billing v3 on the 2nd, Search rerank on the 9th, Checkout 2.0 on the 15th (highlighted flagship), Analytics API on the 22nd, iOS 5.2 on the 28th (warn).
Render it
Structured intent — create_slide payload
Copy-paste-ready. Renders deterministically (verbatim, no LLM). Add a theme_id for any of the built-in themes — the layout stays identical.

Frequently asked questions
How do I render the Month release grid template?
Send a POST to /v1/render/auto with a brief, or call create_slide via MCP with the structured intent shown below. The response includes an editable .pptx, a PDF, and a PNG. $0.05 per slide.
Does an AI write the slide?
No. SlideForge renders deterministically from a structured intent — no LLM draws the slide, so text is never mangled or fabricated. The optional brief path uses a router to pick the pattern, then renders deterministically.
Can I customize the colors and fonts?
Yes. Pass a theme_id to apply a built-in or custom brand theme; the layout stays the same.
