Slide layout templates
Three hundred and fifty three designs, and not one of them is filed under a look. They are filed under a job: comparison, metrics, pricing, timeline, testimonial. That is the organising idea worth understanding, because it is also how the generator picks one.
Purpose is the top level, and there are 26
Agenda, calendar, checklist, closing, code, comparison, content, cover, diagram, divider, framework, gallery, intro, investment, metrics, persona, pillars, pricing, process, profile, quiz, a question break, takeaway, testimonial, timeline and tree. Each is a folder in the real sense: a slide belongs to exactly one, that membership is fixed when the slide is created, and it decides which designs the slide can wear.
The distribution is lopsided on purpose
Comparison and metrics are filed with 31 designs each, pillars 30, cover 25, framework 22, diagram 19, timeline 18, content and process 16 apiece. At the other end, calendar, code, quiz and the question break carry 5 each. That mirrors how often each job actually comes up in a business deck, so the categories with real variety are the ones you will use repeatedly.
Each purpose owns a fixed vocabulary of slots
Every cover design may only use identifiers from the cover list, every pricing design from the pricing list. That constraint is what makes layout swapping a guaranteed one to one content copy inside a family. It is also why the purposes are described in terms of what they hold: a checklist holds five to ten self contained items each with an icon, a heading and one or two sentences, and any checklist design has to accept exactly that.
38 designs are cross listed
A layout can claim a second job. A design filed under tree that also works as a comparison lists both, and it then appears when you filter on either. Thirty eight of the 353 do this, which is why a comparison slide is offered 42 designs rather than the 31 filed under comparison, and a pricing slide 12 rather than 9.
Adding one to a deck by hand
The slide rail has From Library, which opens the whole catalogue with a row of purpose filters across the top and everything grouped by purpose. This is where you go to add a kind of slide the deck does not have yet. A slide added this way arrives as a shell with muted placeholder text in the right shapes, which you then fill or ask the assistant to fill. Blank Slide beside it starts from the plainest title and body design.
How it works, in three steps
Step 1
Open From Library in the rail
Top of the slide rail on desktop. It shows all 353 with a purpose filter across the top, loaded in pages as you scroll.
Step 2
Choose by the job, not the look
Decide whether the slide is comparing, measuring, sequencing or listing. The look follows from the theme anyway.
Step 3
Fill the shell
A newly added slide arrives with placeholders. Type into it, or ask the assistant to write it from a one line hint.
The full walkthrough with screenshots is in the guide Add, reorder and restructure slides.
Limits worth knowing
- 353 designs, all at 1920 by 1080. There is no portrait or square slide size.
- You cannot author a new layout. The library is fixed and grows only with product releases.
- A slide's purpose is set when the slide is created and cannot be changed afterwards.
- Some purposes have only five designs, so variety is uneven across the catalogue.
- The library dialog filters by purpose but has no text search, so browsing is by category rather than by name.

Questions people ask
Can I design my own layout?
No. The 353 are fixed. What you can do is add elements to any slide, which covers most of the reasons people want a custom layout.
Why does the picker show fewer designs than the total?
Because it filters to the slide's purpose. Comparison shows thirty one, quiz shows five. From Library in the rail shows everything.
Are all layouts the same aspect ratio?
Yes, 1920 by 1080, which is 16 by 9. Every design is built and quality checked at that size.
How does the generator choose one?
It decides the slide's purpose first, then asks for the designs registered against it and picks by how many items the slide is carrying versus what each design expects.

Change a slide layout
Swapping a layout is not a template change in the usual sense, where your content gets dumped into a new frame and you spend ten minutes putting it back. The picker only offers designs that hold the same shape of content, and each card is rendered live with your words already in it.
AI presentation maker
Most tools that write a presentation hand you a text outline and leave the design to you. This one plans the deck, chooses a purpose for every slide, binds each purpose to a real layout out of 353, writes the copy into the shapes that layout expects, and generates the pictures.
Pricing slides
A pricing slide is a short form with strict fields, and the reason so many look amateur is that the copy was written before the fields were known. Tier names get twenty characters. Prices get twelve. Feature lines get sixty. Write to those and the slide designs itself.
