Kimi Slides User Guide

Kimi Slides is Kimi's intelligent presentation generator, powered by Kimi K3. Build decks in different styles from scratch: based on your requirements, Kimi gathers information, generates images, and processes visuals with Python, then picks the best design and narrative to deliver a high-quality presentation. You can also upload a .pptx file as a template, or modify and edit it directly.

Kimi includes a powerful online editor, so you can edit right in Kimi without repeated downloads and uploads. Adjust text, shapes, charts, and other elements manually, or keep refining through annotations on the canvas and multi-turn conversation. When you are done, export with one click and open the file in Office — element styles, page layouts, and chart animations look exactly as they did in Kimi.

Visit the Kimi Slides homepage, or click the [Slides] button below the input box on the Kimi homepage to enter presentation mode. Type your request and send it to generate a deck with one click.

You can also upload reference documents, slide images, style references, or slide templates to generate a presentation. Uploading an image and converting it into an editable .pptx, or modifying an uploaded .pptx deck, is also supported.

Kimi Slides offers preset style templates for strategy consulting, marketing, academic research, and more. Scroll down on the Slides page to browse all styles.

To go further, use Custom Style to create a style of your own. Click the [Custom] button below the input box to start creating one.

If neither preset nor custom styles meet your needs, try [Free Style]. In this mode, Kimi designs a theme-fitting style based on your uploaded files and instructions — every deck is tailor-made. Once a style is set, Kimi reads it and generates your presentation accordingly.

Prompt reference:

Once you send the message, Kimi plans its approach based on your prompt and uploaded files, then generates a high-quality deck:

If you only provide a topic, Kimi proactively uses search, databases, and other tools to research it in depth, then organizes what it finds into a presentation.

If you attach research reports, papers, or lesson plans, Kimi reads them all and analyzes the content against your topic and audience. When the input lacks images, examples, or data the deck needs, Kimi fills the gaps through search and databases to improve quality.

If you have clear requirements for page count, use case, or target audience, spell them out in the prompt so Kimi can tailor the deck to your needs:

After the prompt is sent, Kimi gathers information, generates images, and processes visuals before delivering the final deck. You can watch Kimi's progress live in the conversation; click the [Generate pages] tool strip during the process to preview the deck's look. Interrupt at any time with new requirements.

When generation finishes, click the card below the conversation to preview the full output. For local tweaks like text styles or chart data, edit directly in the online editor; for heavier work like re-laying out pages or merging pages, just ask Kimi — it continues from your latest edited version.

Custom styles are the best way to generate a deck in a specific look. A good style description paired with reference images noticeably improves quality. Text descriptions define precise rules — color values, fonts, layout structure (logo divider position, corner radius, and so on); reference images convey the overall feel — texture, mood, content density. Use both together for the best results.

If you already have brand guidelines (such as a corporate VI), paste them directly into the style description.

To mimic the style of an existing slide deck, image, or website, upload a reference screenshot and Kimi will extract its design language.

You can also upload reusable assets — background images, element containers, icons — as reference images, and describe in the style description how they should be used. Kimi will use them directly in the design.

Prompt reference:

Powered by K3's visual and design capabilities, Kimi Slides turns text and data into professional, sophisticated layouts.

To have Kimi build rich charts, flowcharts, or architecture diagrams, provide the text or data to visualize and state your requirements clearly in the prompt — which chart types to use, what hierarchy to apply, and so on. Below are the prompts and the resulting outputs:

Kimi Slides can add all kinds of animation to your deck: page transitions, GIF animations, interactive motion, and more. Animations control the pacing of information and demonstrate dynamic processes visually, holding the audience's attention and lowering the cost of understanding. Describe the dynamic process in your prompt, and Kimi can build interactive flows with clicks, zooms, emphasis, loops, and more. For complex, non-interactive motion — orbital mechanics, physics simulations — Kimi uses the command line, Python, and other tools to achieve higher-quality results. Below are the prompts and the resulting outputs:

With image search, generation, and processing capabilities, Kimi creates decks that pair text with the right visuals. Upload the images you want in the deck and tell Kimi where to place them, what size to use, and how to process them (filters, tone curves, cropping, stretching, and so on). If you don't have suitable assets, ask Kimi to search the web or pull images from pages with tools like Fetch. You can also click the [+] button to open the image-generation plugin and let Kimi generate what it needs. And with its coding skills, Kimi can use Python for complex image processing such as background removal, color grading, and texture effects.

Kimi also supports GIF-based motion; see the Best practices – Animations chapter.

Prompt reference:

Kimi includes a powerful online editor. Click the output card at the bottom of a message to edit the deck: adjust text styles and content, replace images, edit chart data, change themes and animations, and more.

As it builds your deck, Kimi creates theme styles for frequently reused colors and text formats and applies them wherever they appear, so styles can be reused and updated in bulk. Click the [Theme] icon below to open the theme manager. Changes to theme colors or text styles take effect immediately across every element that uses them.

Select a text box to see the styles applied to it.

When Kimi generates animations for a page, an [Animations] button appears at the bottom of the page. Click it to preview the animations, see which elements they are bound to, or delete them.

Generated decks usually need polishing. Kimi supports manual edits, inline annotations, and multi-turn conversation to make iteration easy.

For simple changes like editing text or nudging alignment, editing directly is faster than asking Kimi. Edit right in the editor — changes save automatically and create a new version, and you can roll back to Kimi's original at any time.

After making changes, keep the conversation going: Kimi is aware of your edits and builds on them.

You can also leave annotations on the output to suggest changes faster. Click the annotation button below to enter annotation mode, then hover over an element to select it and annotate it — or annotate anywhere on the page.

Annotations are sent to Kimi with your next message, and Kimi revises the deck based on their locations and content. You can add extra context in the input box as well.

Kimi supports presenting online. Click the [Present] button in the top-right corner to enter presentation mode, which supports page transitions and animations. Transition settings are available in the bottom-right corner.

To present on another device, use the editor's [Share] feature. Click Share - Create link to generate a public link to the output. Anyone with the link can view the deck online or present it, with consistent styling across devices.

Work in progress stays private: after a share link is created, ongoing edits are not synced to the shared page. When you are done, click Share - Update link to publish the latest version to the link.

To revoke access to a shared deck, set its share status to private.

Kimi outputs can also be exported locally. Click [Export] to choose a format: PPT or images. When exporting to PPT, you can embed fonts and transition animations so the deck renders correctly on devices without those fonts installed. Once exported, open it locally or distribute it offline.
