Example brief

The transformation is funded by three main procurement levers: category renegotiation saving EUR 8.5M, demand management saving EUR 4.2M, and supplier consolidation saving EUR 3.7M. Additional savings come from contract compliance, spec harmonization, and working capital. Implementation run costs and one-time enablement costs are EUR 3.4M and EUR 2.1M respectively. The total net run-rate benefit is EUR 18.2M, exceeding the target of EUR 18M.

Frequently asked questions

How do I render the Contribution build-up bridge 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.
