Draft a slide deck from one prompt
Microsoft Scout produced a 5-slide quarterly cloud review deck in Downloads, with charts and layout elements built automatically.
- What they did
- A user gave Microsoft Scout one instruction to make a PowerPoint file in Downloads for a quarterly cloud review. They asked for a cover slide, several content slides, a small chart with invented figures, and a Microsoft-like look. Scout selected its pptx capability by itself and generated the deck with pptxgenjs, without any manual editing.
- How it went
- The finished file included KPI-style blocks, a bar chart, a grid for risks, and pages with more than one column. It came out as 6 slides, not 5, so the final count did not match the request. The author footer on the opening slide was removed.
- Tips
- Check the slide total after the agent finishes, especially if the exact count matters. If you want to use fake numbers, say so clearly and keep the structure specific.
Try it yourself with Microsoft Scout
Make a [number]-slide PowerPoint deck about [topic] for [audience]. Use a [style description] design, add a cover slide and slides for [section 1], [section 2], [section 3], and include simple charts or diagrams wherever they clarify the message. Save the .pptx in my Downloads folder, then pause and ask me before you do anything outside the file itself, such as sending, sharing, or submitting it. Let me know when it is finished.
Fill in the [brackets]. Agents can make mistakes, so review anything before it is sent, paid or deleted.
