Claude in PowerPoint is an AI-powered tool that integrates directly with Microsoft PowerPoint to assist users in creating, editing, and refining presentations. It works alongside users within the PowerPoint interface, building slides, making precise edits, and iterating on presentation decks while maintaining brand consistency and template integrity.

Key features include building slides from client or corporate templates by generating content using correct layouts, fonts, and colors from slide masters. Users can iterate on existing decks by selecting slides and telling Claude what to change while preserving formatting and surrounding context. The tool can generate full presentation decks from descriptions and create native charts and diagrams by converting bullet points into professional visuals that are editable directly within PowerPoint.

The tool operates with precise contextual editing capabilities, understanding which slide and object users have selected to make targeted changes. It maintains template integrity by reading slide masters, layouts, fonts, and color schemes to ensure all generated content stays on-brand without introducing off-brand elements.

Benefits include saving time on presentation creation, maintaining brand consistency across all slides, and enabling rapid iteration and refinement of presentation content. Use cases include creating market sizing sections with TAM, SAM, SOM analysis, simplifying text, adding charts, restructuring storylines, and converting bullet points into professional visuals.

Claude in PowerPoint is available as a research preview in beta for Pro, Max, Team and Enterprise plan customers. It works within existing enterprise security frameworks and compliance requirements, though users should review changes before finalizing critical deliverables.
