Build a research-backed slide deck with Manus Slides
One person used Manus to research, draft, and revise a retail presentation, then cleaned up a few export issues by hand.
- What they did
- They signed into Manus with a Google account, switched to agent mode, picked Slides, and gave it a short request for a presentation on agentic AI in retail. Manus handled the research, gathered images, and assembled the deck structure. While the slides were being generated, they stopped it to request one more slide showing retailers already using agentic AI.
- How it went
- The finished deck was well organized, with citations, charts, and suitable images. After exporting to PPTX or Google Slides, some text boxes overlapped and needed minor manual adjustment. The available templates and design choices were fairly limited.
- Tips
- If you export from Manus, plan on a quick visual check for overlapping or clipped text. It works well for a first draft, but you may need to polish the layout yourself.
Try it yourself with Manus
Create a [number]-slide presentation for [audience] about [topic]. First, research the topic and give me a simple outline before building anything. As you work, pause and ask for approval before adding or changing any slide, and wait for my confirmation before you continue. When the deck is done, export it to [PPTX or Google Slides] and flag any overlapping text, cut-off content, or layout problems so I can review them before anything is finalized.
Fill in the [brackets]. Agents can make mistakes, so review anything before it is sent, paid or deleted.
