// what you get back

one PPTX slide · fully editable in PowerPoint

Example plan output A six-month plan on a page with four workstreams (Engineering, Design, Product, Launch), activities rendered as home-plate pentagons in green (on-track), amber (at-risk), and blue (complete), plus a milestone diamond marking go-live. Jan Feb Mar Apr May Jun Engineering Design Product Launch Discovery Build phase 1 QA & review Wireframes UI build User research & synthesis Beta programme ◆ Go-live

Each activity renders as a home-plate bar coloured by status; milestones become diamonds. Overlapping activities in the same swimlane stack automatically. What you see above is a single slide — real plans often span two or three, one per page the plan needs.

// how it works

01

Upload a CSV

Export from MS Project, Smartsheet, or hand-assemble. Columns for start date, end date, activity name, and swimlane. That's it.

02

We render

Swimlanes stack. Overlapping activities offset automatically. Milestones render as diamonds. One slide for every page the plan needs.

03

Download PPTX

Standard PowerPoint. Every shape is editable. Tweak, annotate, put it in your board pack — or hand it back to us next month with the new dates.

// four promises

01 Minutes, not hours
If it takes you longer to generate the plan than to re-brief the board, we've failed. Realistic 50-activity plans generate in under a second.
02 Board-ready by default
No "now open this in PowerPoint and tidy it up." The first download is shippable. Output quality is the product.
03 Your PowerPoint, your edits
The file is a standard PPTX. Every shape is a PowerPoint shape. You own it. We don't lock you in.
04 PM-native
We slot into the MS Project → PowerPoint flow you already run. We're a shortcut in that flow, not a replacement for either end.

No comments, no live cursors, no dashboards. We produce a static PPTX on demand.

AI-powered anything

It's a geometry engine. We wrote every line. It's also why it's fast and predictable.
