David Brooks is a consultant. He is often faced with a large amount of customer information, interview records, analysis conclusions and feedback.
For David, the most difficult thing about making a deck is not to put the content on it, but to organize complex information into a clear reporting clue: what to talk about first, what to talk about later, which conclusions should be highlighted, and which details should be left behind.
Deckwise helped him put customer information, analysis notes and key conclusions into the same project, first generating an outline, and then generating editable slides. He can then continue to ask AI to adjust the structure, rewrite pages, and add conclusions to make the entire deck more suitable for client reporting.
Turn complex information into clear story lines
When David gives client reports, he usually has too much content rather than a lack of content.
Customer interviews, research notes, Excel sheets, meeting minutes, competitive product information, preliminary conclusions... these information are all important, but it is impossible to pile them all on slides.
In the past, he had to spend a lot of time organizing the structure first: what was background, what was discovery, what was suggestion, what was to be turned into a roadmap.
Now, he will first put the data into Deckwise and let AI generate an outline. David can first judge whether the overall logic is valid, and then decide which parts need to be expanded and which content should be deleted.
He can directly let AI adjust:
- bring conclusions in advance
- Divide findings into three themes
- Add one page recommendation summary
- Summarize customer feedback into several patterns
- Move the details to the back
After the outline is confirmed, Deckwise will generate complete slides.
Modifications become more controllable
Consulting reports often go through many rounds of revisions.
The client wanted to highlight different issues, the project leader wanted the conclusions to be clearer, certain pages to be more cautious, and certain recommendations to be more specific.
In the past, each round of revisions might cause the deck to become cluttered: there were more and more pages, titles were becoming more and more inconsistent, and the logic was easily broken.
The difference with Deckwise is that David can continue to have AI modify it on the same deck, rather than constantly copying new versions.
He can say:
- Make the suggestions section more specific
- Don’t be too absolute on this page, and tone it down a bit.
- Recast the three findings into a clearer framework
- Add a stage division to the roadmap
- Change the entire deck to a 10-minute debriefing version
Modifications are more like continuing to work on the same document rather than starting over each time.
What matters most to David
What David values most is Deckwise's help with "structure".
A good-looking page is of course important, but the customer report must first be understood: what is the problem, what are the findings, what are the suggestions, and what should be done next.
Deckwise allows David to quickly go from data to structure, and then from structure to slides. After the first version comes out, he can continue to ask AI to help him change the expression, add conclusions, and adjust the order to make the entire deck more suitable for a formal report.
