Try it

Apply a preset or custom color-and-font theme consistently across a slide deck or other artifact.

What it does

Style slide decks and other artifacts with one of 10 curated themes, each defined by a hex color palette and paired header and body fonts. Users review an unmodified PDF showcase, explicitly select a theme, and then receive consistent colors and typography across the artifact with attention to contrast and readability. If no preset fits, a custom theme can be generated from a basic description, reviewed, and applied.

When to use it

  • Restyling a presentation deck
  • Standardizing colors and typography across slides
  • Choosing a visual identity from preset themes
  • Creating a custom theme from a brief
