Brand, Blocks, and Sources

The fastest way to improve every future deck is to set up the workspace well once. Brand controls, reusable blocks, and source inputs do different jobs, but together they make the whole workspace more consistent.

Brand kit

Brand kit: define the system once

• Add or review colors, typography, logo, and voice so new decks start closer to the look you want.
• Lock the tokens that should stay stable across refreshes and future updates.
• Treat this page as the shared design system for the workspace, not just a one-time setup screen.

Reusable blocks

Blocks: save what works

Reusable blocks are best for slides or sections that come up repeatedly, such as company overviews, closing asks, comparison layouts, or approved visual patterns.

• Save blocks that already perform well.
• Reuse them when you want consistency without rebuilding from scratch.
• Keep an eye on which blocks are used most often so the best patterns become part of the team's default toolkit.

Source inputs

Sources: ground important content

Sources give the workspace a memory. They are especially useful for decks that need to be reviewed by teammates, sent to customers, or supported by specific claims.

• Add documents, URLs, or pasted content that should inform generation.
• Refresh sources when the underlying material changes.
• Prefer source-backed generation for decks that include important numbers or sensitive wording.
