Presentations

Profile slides

A profile slide answers who, and the honest version carries what each person actually did rather than a job title. Ten layouts cover the range, from a single headshot with a bio to a four by four directory grid and a team row over a strip of client logos.

Create a presentation with OneCraftThe 10 profile layouts, how many people each holds, and why headshots are uploads

One person, two, four or a whole directory

The layouts are sized by headcount. One person takes the headshot with a bio, the hero portrait with three section cards, the detail grid with an info bar, or the headshot with a stats strip. Two takes the editorial split. Four takes the team row with a client logo strip or the polaroid grid. Six takes the founders and advisors rows. A larger team takes the text only directory grid with a lead box, which names people without needing a photograph each.

Credibility receipts

Three of the ten pair people with evidence rather than titles: a stats strip under a single profile, a stats banner across a team grid, and a client logo strip under a team row. These are the layouts that make a team slide persuasive in a pitch or a credentials deck, because a number or a recognisable logo does more than a list of former employers. The figures are typed, so they are yours to stand behind.

Headshots are uploads, always

Automatic image generation skips any slot whose purpose is profile or logo, in the initial fill and in chat operations, so nobody on a team slide is invented. Upload jpeg, png, webp or gif. Images fill their slot and are cropped to it, so a square headshot survives a circular crop better than a wide one, and the inspector offers corner radius, a frame in four tokens and a shadow toggle.

Bios that are worth reading

Most layouts give each person a role line and either a short bio or three labelled sections. The useful convention is one line of what they do now and one line of what they did that proves it. Text is budgeted per slot and fitted to the box after render, so a long bio shrinks the whole card. If a person genuinely needs a paragraph, the single person layouts carry it and the grids do not.

How the AI picks this slide

Profile is chosen when the brief names people or asks for a team slide. The fill writes roles and bios from what you supply and will not invent names, titles or histories, and it leaves an optional slot out rather than padding it. That is why a team slide from a thin brief comes back with roles and empty bios, which is the correct behaviour rather than a failure.

How it works, in three steps

  1. Step 1

    Count the people

    One, two, four, six or a directory. Every layout has a fixed number of cards, and the count is what narrows the ten to two or three.

  2. Step 2

    Add the slide from the library

    From Library on the slide rail with the Role filter set to profile. Ten layouts come back, plus three that list profile as a secondary role.

  3. Step 3

    Upload the headshots

    Image generation skips profile slots, so the photographs are yours. Square crops survive the circular frames best.

  4. Step 4

    Write one proof line each

    What they do now, then the thing they did that makes it credible. That pairing is what the bio slots are budgeted for.

Questions people ask

How many profile layouts are there?

Ten carry profile as their primary role and three more list it as a secondary role. They range from a single headshot with a bio to a team directory grid with a lead box.

Can the AI generate headshots?

No. Slots whose image purpose is profile or logo are skipped by automatic generation in both the initial fill and chat operations, so photographs are uploads.

How many people fit on one slide?

Four on the team row and polaroid grid, six across the founders and advisors rows, and more on the text only directory, which lists names and roles without photographs.

Can I add client logos to a team slide?

Yes, on the team row with a client logo strip, which carries four logos under the headshots. Logos are uploads, since generation skips logo slots.

What image formats can I upload?

jpeg, png, webp and gif. Styling options are corner radius, a frame in four tokens and a shadow toggle, applied per image slot in the inspector.

Can I show an org structure instead?

Use the tree role, which has ten layouts including a three level org chart. A profile slide names people; a tree slide shows who reports to whom.
