These docs cover the PowerPoint add-in. The web editor is in beta and is documented
separately once it ships.
Start here
Install the add-in
Add Pretty to PowerPoint from Microsoft Marketplace.
Build your first slide
A five-minute walkthrough from empty deck to finished slide.
Tour the task pane
Chat, Assets, Components and Settings, explained.
Core areas
Chat
The main way you work. Ask for a slide, attach source documents, point at shapes you have
selected, and switch the model behind the conversation.
Building slides
Draft a full deck from a brief, turn a screenshot or sketch into native shapes, build charts
wired to your numbers, and edit what is already on the slide.
Assets
Icons, company logos, editable maps and editorial photography, searchable from the task
pane and recoloured to your master.
Components
Save shapes from any slide as a reusable component, keep it private or share it with your
organization.
Slide pools
Upload approved decks so their slides become a searchable library Pretty can pull from.
Skills
Reusable instructions saved as slash commands, for you or for the whole workspace.
Workspace admin
Members and roles, brand fonts, model providers and spend limits.
Help
Preferences, what each tool row means, security, troubleshooting and support.
What makes it different
Everything it inserts is native PowerPoint

Charts are real charts. Maps are freeform region shapes you can recolour district by
district. Logos and icons are vectors. You can select any of it, nudge it, restyle it, or
hand it to a colleague who has never heard of Pretty.
It follows your firm's visual system

Pretty reads the master of the deck you are in, so colours, fonts, shapes and placeholder
layouts come from your template rather than a generic theme. Upload your approved decks as
a slide pool and it will reuse those layouts too.

Switch the model behind any chat at any time. Workspaces can also
bring their own provider key (OpenAI, AWS Bedrock, Google AI
Studio or a LiteLLM proxy) so requests run on your own account.
Chats run in parallel
Chats run in parallel
Open several chats and build several slides at once. Each chat keeps its own history, model
and context.
