We work in creating presentations, including executive or investor presentations for startups. We have clients who have raised over $120 million, so we constantly have the need to enhance our products. Looking at tools online, Beautiful AI is one of the perfect tools to use when it comes to presentation generation, but here are things you have to know before using such a tool.
Things to Know Before Using Beautiful AI
Number one: It won’t do everything for you. We always advise our clients that we need to create a storyboard first with extensive details before letting Beautiful.ai just do the final design touches. Similar to how our designer would just brush up the end of the presentation, we would have design concepts, we would have everything, and then at the very end, Beautiful.ai could touch it up.
This is the perfect use case of such an AI platform. Anything else in this sense is going to lead to disappointment. If you’re just thinking that you’re going to create an entire presentation with Beautiful.ai with a few lines of prompts or just a paragraph or so explaining what you’re doing, you’re going to be disappointed in the fact that they are not going to give you that. But you are also going to be disappointed in the fact that those presentations are not going to achieve their objective of actually selling. This is only done with a true story.
Look into Alternatives like Microsoft Copilot
Secondly, there are a few alternatives out there that you need to look into, just to make sure that you don’t put all your eggs in one basket. So when people are telling us that they want to use Beautiful.ai, we ask them if, after using Beautiful.ai, they’ve used Microsoft’s Copilot, for example, and its integration with PowerPoint. We believe that PowerPoint is one of the strongest presentation generators out there, and for that reason, it should also be granted the option before going or before deciding on a commitment with Beautiful.ai.
Visual Identity Matters
Finally, and we cannot stress this enough, visuals and the visual identity is all about what you give the platform. Beautiful.ai can get you good presentations, but it is critical that you understand what your brand identity is in the first place, which makes it just put the final touches on the product, hence allowing you to create a powerful presentation in a few minutes. This is the core concept of Beautiful.ai or of integrating AI with presentations in general.
