Design professional PowerPoint slides with AI
Generate specific presentation slides with a prompt
Prompt Copilot in PowerPoint using natural language to add individual slides to a presentation. Provide the content, number of bullet points, or visual style and Copilot will generate clear text and an engaging layout. Add further context to presentations or make design refinements by prompting AI for the best result.
Create images with DALL·E 3 in seconds
Generate images assets directly in PowerPoint using AI with DALL·E 3. Simply ask Copilot to create an image, design element, or slide background to get multiple options to review and use. You don’t have to switch menu options since image creation is integrated within the Copilot chat pane.
Present confidently with AI-generated speaker notes
Generate speaker notes with a compelling narrative tailored to each slide. With a single prompt, you can create context-aware speaker notes that support storytelling and audience engagement. Create notes while working or after finalizing to save time and present with confidence knowing the tone and notes are tailored to the audience.
Overcome creative blocks with prompt-to-slide generation
Chat with Copilot to create familiar layouts like title, agenda, conclusion, or timeline slides and get AI-generated options in seconds. From there, create slides with your company’s PowerPoint template to include specific logos, fonts, and color schemes to stay on brand automatically. Then refine existing slides with prompts to create visual charts from tables and make the presentation easier to understand.
Generate images using prompts in PowerPoint
Prompt Copilot to create original backgrounds for presentation slides, icon sets, and images just by asking for what you need in the chat pane. If you want photography, ask AI to search stock photos like a team gathered around a table or to find images from a brand library. For more visual inspiration, review PowerPoint Design Suggestions to arrange images and text on slides in compelling ways.
Add speaker notes in seconds to present with clarity
Generate speaker notes that match a specific tone to tailor the presentation for executives, staff teams, students, or topic enthusiasts. Use Copilot to prepare for presentations by anticipating questions from the audience and drafting thoughtful answers. To finalize, make decks and portfolios accessible with smart captions and alt text for images as well as image descriptions in speaker notes.
Improve presentation flow to boost audience engagement
Have AI review presentations to condense sections with too much content, emphasize key points, or expand sections that are missing details. Thinking about the audience, prompt Copilot to rewrite slides to be more persuasive for decision-makers or professionals to align with colleagues and board members. Finally, have Copilot reorder slides and add transitions to improve the overall structure.
Collaborate and share presentations online
Work with team members in PowerPoint through comments, tags, and real-time editing, then save the presentation to OneDrive for cloud access. To share it, grant viewing or editing permissions to others via email, send a OneDrive link via Outlook, or download a PDF to attach separately. You can also distribute the presentation offline by printing it out for board or team meetings.

Frequently asked questions
How do I add speaker notes in PowerPoint?
Click view, then click on notes to see the textbox for speaker notes. Next, type notes into the textbox. Alternatively, ask Copilot to add engaging speaker notes to a single slide or the entire presentation, so you'll be prepared to present confidently.
How do I create visuals for presentations?
Create visuals for PowerPoint presentations in multiple ways with Copilot. Generate a new image or design, search stock images that fit your slide, create a visualization from a data table, or search a brand library in Microsoft 365 for approved visuals.
How many slides do I need for a 10-minute presentation?
Use about seven to ten slides for ten minute presentation, keeping in mind that a single slide can take about a minute to present, and you’ll also need time for an introduction and conclusion section. However, for longer periods like a 30-minute or 45-minute presentation, you might budget two or three minutes per slide so you don’t overwhelm the audience with too many slides.
