Strategy & The AI-Native Founder

Should you let AI generate your pitch deck, and which tools are worth it?

AI deck tools like Gamma, Beautiful.ai and Slidebean, and now Claude Design, which builds slides on your brand and exports to PowerPoint or PDF, turn a paragraph about your company into a clean, structured draft in minutes, which is useful for a v1 and for founders with no designer. But investors review hundreds of decks a month, so the tool should handle layout and polish while the story, the real numbers, and the one non-obvious insight still have to come from you.
