Building a compelling business presentation takes time—too much time. A study by INNOFACT  found that professionals spend an average of 100 hours a year working with PowerPoint, with nearly half dedicating more than 8 hours to a single deck. That’s valuable time that could be spent on strategy, decision-making, and driving business outcomes.

While AI-powered tools promise efficiency, most fail to deliver. They churn out cookie-cutter slides that lack audience relevance, industry alignment, and brand consistency—leaving professionals with decks that feel disconnected and ineffective. 

That’s why we’re thrilled to introduce Astrid, the first-of-its-kind contextually intelligent AI for enterprise business presentations. As a 3-in-1 presentation agent, Astrid transforms presentations for busy professionals by acting as a:

  • Virtual management consultant to analyze their files and prompts to create compelling presentations.
  • Virtual communication expert to create effective narratives and executive summaries.
  • Virtual brand designer to transform messy, disjointed decks into 100% brand-aligned presentations.

What today’s teams need isn’t just automation—it’s AI that understands business context, adapts to industry-specific needs, and enhances—not replaces—human communication. A true “human-in-the-loop” approach ensures AI serves as a strategic partner, augmenting expertise and enabling teams to communicate with greater clarity, precision, and impact.

How Astrid is built to help enterprise professionals create compelling presentations 

There are three parts to Astrid that enable it to create brand-aligned narratives loved by 100+ Fortune 1000 companies.

  1. Specialized Presentations Models (SPMs): At its core, Astrid is custom built with industry-based Specialized Presentation Models (SPMs) that capture the knowledge, lingo and layouts of each industry. This means a biopharma presentation will accurately incorporate industry factoids and industry specific visualizations, like the Kaplan-Meier curve.
  2. Multiple Agents working Together: Astrid is built with a multi-agentic framework to understand audience empathy, storylines, layouts and brand alignment for presentations. For example, the audience empathy agent understands audience preferences tailoring the presentation, while the brand alignment agent ensures that the presentation is in your company and team brand template.
  3. Hyper-personalization: With company, team, and individual level files and context, Astrid creates an unmatched degree of personalization to ensure every presentation is tailored for maximum impact.

By supporting our AI platform with relevant context, such as industry-specific terminology, brand guidelines, individual preferences and more, we generate presentations that are relevant, precise, and impactful—enabling more effective business communication. 

Here’s a closer look at how this comes together in Prezent’s key features that are powered by Astrid: 

Auto-Generator: Create polished, relevant decks with a few simple prompts or uploaded files 

Starting a new presentation—especially one loaded with data and technical details—can be a time-consuming grind. Too often, people end up spending hours structuring frameworks, organizing content, and fine-tuning data points.

Auto-Generator streamlines this process by curating a structured set of slides with just a few simple prompts or uploaded files. The AI behind auto-generator is powered by Astrid and leverages industry-based templates and best practice layouts for the output. 

Auto-generator also leverages input from you to tailor the visuals and content to your desired audience, applies your company's brand guidelines, and incorporates your company's style– including voice, tone and acronyms. 

Users can enhance the accuracy and relevance by attaching supporting materials, including existing slides, word documents, and links. Every generated presentation is audience-appropriate, customizable, and editable, allowing users to refine images, charts, and templates as needed.

Template Converter: Ensure every presentation is brand-aligned with one click

For most enterprises, ensuring brand consistency across presentations is crucial. But, it can be time-consuming and costly.

Template Converter eliminates these challenges by applying company branding guidelines automatically. Simply upload a deck that you’ve already built and Template Converter–powered by Astrid–will ensure the fonts, colors, footers and images are fully aligned with your brand. 

Astrid also analyzes the elements of your slides to assess brand compliance and gives you a score in addition to suggested changes to make it more on-brand. This ensures that you will have 100% brand-aligned and compliant presentations every time. Instead of spending hours on manual slide tweaks, you can focus on the content and other strategic priorities. 

Synthesis: Generate concise executive summaries for any presentation

Manually summarizing an entire presentation is a time sink. It’s challenging to pull out key insights without losing context or clarity – and even harder to make it compelling. 

The Synthesis feature automates this process, extracting the key messages from your deck and turning them into a clear, high-impact summary that’s formatted in your brand’s template.

You can tweak the tone, switch the audience, update the template, refine key messages, adjust the layout, or swap out images—all in just a few clicks. Synthesis gives you full control to tailor your executive summary for maximum impact.

Transforming your business communication – and saving you time

AI should do more than just automate. Astrid isn’t another generic slide generator – it’s built for business impact, combining deep personalization, brand alignment, and industry-specific intelligence to create presentations that actually land. 

The industry-based Specialized Presentation Models (SPMs) are the first of their kind and unlock a new level of customization and accuracy for your specific needs. These, alongside your inputs from your company, team and personal preferences create an unmatched solution for better communication and presentation creation. 

That’s why organizations in biopharma, tech, BFSI and more trust Astrid to streamline their presentations and elevate their business communication. Our customers have seen a 90% efficiency boost, cutting down hours of manual work while improving decision-making, reducing costs, and freeing up time for high-impact tasks. Less time spent building decks means more time driving real business results.

We’re excited to continue to help professionals across industries get their time back and become better business storytellers. For more information, visit www.prezent.ai.
