It plans the outline first, creates structured slides, and lets you keep improving them with an agent: select any part with lasso, then ask Deckwise to rewrite, redesign, reorder, or polish it. Not just generated once — improved with you.
Why most AI presentation tools still feel like toys???
Been building in the AI presentation space recently and wanted to share a quick teardown of why current tools still frustrate us:
Gamma: Great for simple bullet points, but its Notion-like block structure kills spatial freedom. It fails at 90% of complex, real-world PPT tasks.
PowerPoint: Legacy XML is an absolute nightmare for AI to parse and generate reliably. It's just not built for the SaaS era.
Pitch: Beautiful canvas, but it’s a traditional tool with AI bolted on, not an AI-native agent.
Claude/HTML slides: Generating code is cool, but having no visual GUI editor is a dealbreaker. "Prompt-and-pray" is not a reliable workflow.
The takeaway?
The only logical path forward is a true 2D spatial canvas built for AI agents, paired with a real native editor and rich assets so you can actually tweak things 1:1. That’s exactly the paradigm we’re exploring with Deckwise.
The editable-deck angle is the important part. One test I would run hard: generate a deck, manually tweak 3 slides, then ask for a small follow-up change and verify the agent preserves the human edits instead of quietly regenerating the whole thing.
The lasso editing is the part that makes this feel different. Generating a deck is nice, but being able to point at one messy section and ask the AI to fix just that is much closer to how people actually revise slides.
wow this feels closer to an actual workflow tool than a generator, especially with the iterative “edit after creation” loop.
the lasso-based refinement is what makes it feel usable for real deck work. good job
lasso-selecting a slide and asking it to redesign is the part every other deck tool skips. does it hold brand styling consistent across the whole deck?
How does the AI understand complex overlapping elements and layered layouts that aren't simple linear flows?

Who hunted Deckwise?
Deckwise was hunted by Ao XU. A “hunter” on Product Hunt is the community member who submits a product to the platform — uploading the images, the link, and tagging the makers behind it. Hunters typically write the first comment explaining why a product is worth attention, and their followers are notified the moment they post. Around 79% of featured launches on Product Hunt are self-hunted by their makers, but a well-known hunter still acts as a signal of quality to the rest of the community.
