Beta Feature: AI slides are currently in beta. Contact your Technical Account Manager for access.
AI slides let you add a slide that isn't in your template: you describe the slide, and Matik's AI builds it into your presentation when you generate. To add one, click Add Slide on the template and select the AI tab, next to Library.
Add an AI Slide
- Open a Google Slides or PowerPoint template and fill in your inputs as usual.
-
Click Add Slide, or hover between two slides and click the + icon.
- Select the AI tab.
- Write your Instructions, and turn on any connectors the slide needs.
- Pick a Base design.
- Choose where the slide goes.
- Click Insert AI slide.
The AI slide appears in your deck as a placeholder. Matik's AI builds the real slide when you generate the presentation. The template itself doesn't change.
Instructions
Describe the slide you want in plain text, up to 4,000 characters. For example: "Summarize my last call with this account in three bullets, then list the action items with owners and due dates."
If the slide needs information from another tool, such as Gong, click the connector icon in the Instructions box and turn that connector on. Mentioning a tool in your instructions doesn't connect it. You can turn on connectors you've connected to your own account; see [BETA] Using MCP Connectors in Matik.
Base design
The base design is an existing slide Matik's AI uses as a starting point for layout and styling. Picking one usually gives you a slide that looks like the rest of your presentation, so we recommend it.
- From this template: select This template in the dropdown, then pick a slide. Slides excluded from generation can't be used.
- From another template: select another template in the dropdown, then pick a slide. You can use any template you have access to of the same type.
- No base design: Matik's AI chooses the design itself.
Placement
- At position: pick a slide to place the AI slide before, or At the end.
- Let the agent decide: Matik's AI places the slide where it fits best.
Note: If you exclude the slide an AI slide is placed before, Matik's AI decides the placement instead. If you exclude the slide used as its base design, Matik's AI chooses the design.
Editing and Removing AI Slides
- Edit: click the AI slide in your deck, make your changes, then click Insert AI slide.
- Remove: click the x on the AI slide.
Saving AI Slides to a Sub-Template
To reuse AI slides, save them on a sub-template. Add your AI slides, then save the template as a sub-template. Every time you generate from that sub-template, Matik's AI builds those slides again with fresh content, so a recurring deck gets a new call recap or summary each run without rewriting the instructions.
Saved AI slides show in the sub-template's deck but can't be edited or removed there. You can still add more AI slides for a single generation.
Limitations
- Up to 5 AI slides per presentation. Remove one to add another.
- Up to 4,000 characters of instructions per AI slide.
- Google Slides and PowerPoint templates only.
- Single generations only. Not available for bulk generation, scheduled presentations, or Flows.
- Review before you share. AI slides are AI-generated content.
