What does real time mean here, does it update as you type or only when you hit a generate button?

"Hey team, congrats on the launch! 🚀

I just ran a quick website integrity scan on your landing page and noticed a broken integration link that might hurt user experience:

❌ Broken Link: The Microsoft Store / Office Add-in URL is returning a 405 Method Not Allowed / Error status. (Specifically: https://pages.store.office.com/a......)

Users trying to integrate your tool with Office might face issues. Thought you'd want to quick-fix it since it's launch day! Let me know if you need the full screenshot. Best of luck!"

You mentioned optimizing your slide engine to bypass standard, bloated JSON/XML trees. When a user prompts for a complex structural change (e.g., "convert this 3-column layout into a 2x2 grid"), how does your simplified representation layer convey that structural shifting to the agent without exploding the token count? Is it using an abstract, markdown-like layout schema, or are you passing localized coordinate deltas?

the 6x speed claim is interesting — the bottleneck with most AI slide tools isn't generation quality, it's the iteration loop. you generate something decent, then spend 20 minutes manually fixing layout issues the AI created. does Folio handle the "fix what the AI broke" step too, or is it mainly about the initial generation speed?

Great product! I’ve personally stopped using slides. My usual workflow is to generate HTML that includes slide types for display. I’ll give it a try. However, what’s your opinion on whether slides are no longer the right representation?

The "works directly from your layouts and assets to preserve your brand" line is the part most slide-AI tools fake by dropping text onto a generic template, so the native charts and shapes claim is what actually makes this interesting. When it runs in PowerPoint, is it a local add-in acting on the open file, or does the deck get uploaded to your backend to process - and does it read my existing master/theme on first run so brand styling isn't a separate setup step? And when it iterates on a chart, is it editing the real native chart object so it stays editable, or swapping in an image?

C'est vraiment assez impressionnant. À quel point on va pouvoir l'utiliser sur Google Slides, par exemple sur PowerPoint, je ne me rends pas trop compte. Mais je pense qu'en tant que consultant, ça peut vraiment changer ma vie. Merci beaucoup

The PowerPoint workflow is still one of the most painful places for business teams. The real value is not just generating slides, but getting from messy thinking to a presentation that has structure, hierarchy, and a clear decision path.

I’d be curious how Folio handles source material: does it preserve the user’s argument and evidence, or does it reshape the narrative? That distinction matters a lot for consultants, founders, and operators using AI for serious decks.

@aymericroucher hello, The in-place editing part is what makes this interesting for me. Most AI slide tools are good at generating a first draft, but real slide work is usually about small edits, layout fixes, charts, and keeping the brand intact. Working directly inside PowerPoint and Google Slides feels much closer to how teams actually build decks.

Perfect timing on this launch. I'm literally building a fundraising deck for my startup's board this morning and I'm now thinking about switching over to try Folio mid-process.

The surgical in-place edit model is the thing I've always wanted. Every other AI slide tool I've tried feels like handing off your work to someone who comes back with something completely different. The "iterate without regressing" problem Mustafa mentioned is real and it's what made me give up on most of these tools.

Love this. AI for presentations is becoming a crowded space. What has been the biggest reason consulting and finance teams choose Folio over existing AI presentation tools?

The "works from your layouts and assets to preserve brand" line is the real hook here. Most AI slide tools generate something that looks like a template fever dream. The moment you inject into an existing brand system rather than starting from scratch, the output actually survives a review from a real designer.

Curious how you handle edge cases where the brand guide conflicts with what the AI wants to do layout-wise. Does it defer to the existing deck structure, or override spacing to fit the content?

Congrats on another great launch! One thing I'm trying to picture - when I say "make the chart bigger" and it stops fitting the template grid, do you guys push the neighboring shapes? Or hold them as constraints?

@aymeric_roucher I realize I might be spamming a bit, apologies. Quick additional question I had - what about web search? Asking as I’m using LLMs for research on the side, being able to prompt something like « check this website and update financial figures with the latest from last quarter »?

Great achievement Aymeric, can Folio work with an existing template ? I have been struggling with that lately

Huge congrats for shipping this @aymericroucher qq. on the native charts can Folio link directly to live data in Google Sheets or Excel, or does it generate static charts?
