Great achievement Aymeric, can Folio work with an existing template ? I have been struggling with that lately
Folio
@charles_azam hi Charles, thank you for your question. Absolutely ! This is IMO one of the salient features that we propose : Folio works directly within your existing templates and models : it's not jsut trying to reproduce them, it's working in them. So it 100% natively sticks to your brand! Don't hesitate if you want to know more on anything!
@charles_azam @aymericroucher just have to ask - is there a risk it modifies the template as well? I just see how this can wreck my whole deck if the agent goes rogue for some reason
Folio
@charles_azam @marie_sergue1 great question ! Regarding templates, the agent edits are behind an "approval gate", similar to Claude Code, where you can approve once or approve forever : this shields your template from unwanted edits! And anyway on templates, the agent works in an additive mode, which means it will add a new template to work on : it overrides yours only if you explicitly ask (and there's the approval gate on top)
Btw don't hesitate to also give us feedback on this feature!
@charles_azam @aymericroucher while wanting for your answer I tested the behavior - works great!! One thing maybe, there no notification system in place, so there’s a risk the agent asks for my permission but I don’t see it because I’m already off doing something else. Not sure how that would be doable, but def worth considering if you ask me
Amazing product ! Does it integrate well with the Office 365 stack ?
Folio
@samuelfitouss10 thanks for your question! Yes you can use it directly in PowerPoint as a sidebar : you can install it in PowerPoint under Home -> Add-ins -> Search Folio AI. And of course every deck exported is pptx, fully compatible with PowerPoint.
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.
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?
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?
How does it compare vs Claude Cowork?
Folio
@laurent_meunier_3 it's aimed at a slightly different target : while Claude Cowork will do some general work on your desktop, and can produce slides but you then have to edit them on your side, and you cannot just edit a deck, Folio lives directly in your PowerPoint or Google Slides as a sidebar to work directly alongside you ! It's much more convenient for real slide work where you have to iterate.
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.
Folio
@matthew_goley of course, feel free to give it a try! Would be happy to get your feedback!
