IN THE KNOW
Compile a Brand Guide with Canva Docs AI
Canva Docs is a document-writing tool, similar to Google Docs, built inside Canva. Canva Docs AI adds writing help that summarizes long content into clear, structured documents. This matters when brand rules are scattered across files and hard to explain to new hires.
Let’s say you are onboarding new employees and keep answering the same brand questions. You paste your existing brand rules into Canva Docs AI, and it turns them into a one-page guide that explains font use, logo spacing, and color ratios in simple terms.
Practical Takeaways:
Onboard new hires faster with a clear brand reference
Reduce repeated questions about brand usage
Keep brand rules easy to share and update
Sync Leadership Decks with Pitch.com AI
Pitch.com is an online presentation tool used by teams to create and share slide decks together. Pitch.com AI helps keep shared decks updated so everyone presents the same version. This matters when leaders present in different regions.
Say you need executives in multiple locations to present the same strategy. You update the main deck once in Pitch, and the AI automatically syncs the changes so no one uses an outdated version.
Practical Takeaways:
Avoid version confusion during leadership presentations
Keep messaging consistent across regions
Save time chasing slide updates
#BTAU (Back That App Up)
Google Workspace Studio is a new workspace from Google that helps teams create interactive documents, visuals, and content using AI tools inside Google Workspace. It is designed for teams that already use Docs, Slides, and Sheets.
Step 1: Open Google Workspace Studio from your Workspace account.
Step 2: Choose the type of asset you want to create, such as a document or visual.
Step 3: Use built-in AI tools to generate and refine content with your team.
Track Slide Engagement with Beautiful.ai
Beautiful.ai is a presentation tool that designs slides automatically based on your content. Its analytics feature shows how audiences interact with your slides, which helps presenters understand what worked.
Suppose you just hosted an all-hands meeting. You open Beautiful.ai analytics and see which slides people stayed on the longest and which ones they skipped. You use that insight to improve the next presentation.
Practical Takeaways:
Identify slides that captured the most attention
Improve future presentations using real data
Focus effort on content that resonates
