Ghost

Product Introduction

1. Ghost is a GPU-powered, AI-native slide editor designed to combine the fluidity of design tools like Figma with the precision of professional presentation software. It leverages real-time rendering capabilities and AI assistance to enable rapid creation, editing, and styling of slides. The platform operates entirely in the cloud, ensuring seamless access across devices without performance compromises.
2. The core value of Ghost lies in its ability to eliminate friction in slide creation by integrating AI-generated content that remains fully editable. It prioritizes speed, with GPU optimization enabling instant rendering of complex visuals, animations, and data-driven elements. This allows users to focus on strategic storytelling rather than manual design adjustments.

Main Features

1. Ghost AI generates entire slides, charts, or design elements (e.g., icons, layouts) through text prompts while preserving editability, enabling users to modify AI output as easily as manually created content. The AI engine adapts to user preferences over time, offering personalized template suggestions and design adjustments.
2. GPU-accelerated rendering ensures buttery-smooth interactions, even with 4K images, 3D models, or 100+ element layers, reducing lag to <16ms per operation. This is powered by WebGL and WebGPU standards, enabling browser-based access without compromising performance.
3. Real-time multiplayer collaboration supports simultaneous editing, version control, and granular permission settings (view/edit/comment), with changes synced at 60 FPS. Users can leave timestamped feedback, track slide history, and revert to any prior state instantly.

Problems Solved

1. Traditional slide editors suffer from slow performance with complex files and require manual design work, delaying critical business deliverables. Ghost solves this by automating repetitive tasks (e.g., layout alignment, chart formatting) and ensuring instant response times.
2. The product targets marketing teams, consultants, and startup founders who need to create investor decks, sales pitches, or product launches under tight deadlines. It also serves educators and content creators producing visually dense tutorials or reports.
3. Typical scenarios include building a 50-slide product launch deck in 2 hours using AI-generated visuals, collaborating with remote teams on a real-time earnings presentation, or converting a text-heavy document into an interactive slide deck with one-click AI styling.

Unique Advantages

1. Unlike Figma (design-focused) or PowerPoint (template-driven), Ghost combines AI content generation with deep presentation-specific features like speaker notes, live data embedding, and export-to-video. Competitors lack its GPU-powered rendering stack, resulting in slower performance with large files.
2. The AI maintains full editability post-generation—users can disassemble AI-created charts into individual components or retarget animations frame-by-frame without losing quality. This contrasts with tools like Canva, where AI outputs often become static images.
3. Competitive advantages include 10x faster load times for 100MB+ files compared to desktop software, browser-based access with desktop-grade capabilities, and patented "Style Lock" technology to prevent accidental design inconsistencies during edits.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

1. Does Ghost require a high-end GPU to run smoothly? Ghost offloads 90% of rendering tasks to cloud GPUs, requiring only a mid-tier consumer GPU (e.g., NVIDIA GTX 1060 or equivalent) for optimal local performance. The web version automatically adjusts quality based on device capabilities.
2. How does Ghost AI handle brand-specific design guidelines? Users can upload brand kits (colors, fonts, logos), which the AI adheres to when generating slides. The system learns from manual overrides, applying them to future AI outputs within the same workspace.
3. Can teams work on the same slide deck simultaneously? Yes, Ghost supports unlimited concurrent editors with pixel-perfect sync, conflict resolution algorithms, and per-user cursors. Edits are merged in real time, with a full audit trail available in the version history panel.
4. What formats can Ghost export to? Native exports include editable .ghost files, PowerPoint-compatible PPTX (with 98% style retention), PDF, HTML5 interactive decks, and MP4 videos with customizable transition timing.
5. Is offline editing supported? A desktop app (Windows/macOS) allows full functionality offline, syncing changes automatically upon reconnection. Mobile apps (iOS/Android) provide view/edit capabilities with limited AI features.
