It’s not a design tool. It’s a writing tool

Great presentations don’t start with slides. They start with strategy. So, we didn’t build a slide design app, we built a thinking tool. A writing tool. A decision-shaping tool.

We’ve put decades of our proven methodology into your hands that’s powered by empathy and story to create real influence.

A rough draft is the perfect starting point

Your uploaded documents don’t need to be pretty or structured.

Just upload a working doc, research, rough notes, snippets or clippings and our writing tools will do the rest. The upload is used as reference material, it takes about three minutes to read it, and it takes five minutes to re-write it.

Lisa Earle McLeod

Sales leadership expert and best-selling author, reacts to Duarte AI

“This is the only tool that captured the heart and soul of what the audience cares about and infused it into the presentation. It shifted the language, the organization and the talking points and it put me into their shoes. My presentations will be so differentiated because our presentation is not about us now, it’s about them.”

Duarte AI transforms your messy slides, notes, or documents and writes clear, persuasive business stories using the Duarte Method™. It’s not a design tool; it’s a thinking, writing, and influence tool that helps you shape your message for any audience.
Duarte AI is built for professionals who want to get business results through better communication. If you’ve learned the Duarte Method, this is your shortcut to applying it at work, fast. The method works whether you’re in sales, marketing, product, L&D, or leadership.
Most tools decorate slides. Duarte AI helps you influence by shaping your thinking, content structure, and messages to what your audience needs. It builds strategy and story into your content before you open slide software. And unlike LLMs, Duarte AI offers a guided prompt-free experience and has been trained explicitly on all of Duarte’s models and methodologies.
No, but it helps. If you’ve taken a Duarte workshop, you’ll recognize the principles immediately. If you haven’t, Duarte AI still guides you through empathy-first communication that lands.
Duarte AI offers three powerful writing Project types. Each addresses a different goal. You’ll choose your Project type at the start, and the tool does the rest.
  1. Storyline: A fast, focused outline you can download as a Word doc. Perfect for thinking through your message priorities and content flow, and ideal for aligning early with stakeholders.
  2. Storyboard: A scripted presentation with suggested visuals, speaker notes, and story structure. Delivered in PowerPoint, this Project type is ideal when preparing to present in person or to collaborate with a design team on your slides
  3. Recommendation: An executive-ready Slidedoc written as a read-ahead. This dense, skimmable deck presents your recommendation in a logical narrative flow that decision makers crave. Best for making recommendations or proposals without presenting live.
If you’re using the Storyboard or Recommendation tools, you’ll need to upload an existing Powerpoint or PDF file for it to rewrite. These can be messy first-draft slides, reports, or working docs. Duarte AI pulls out key ideas from this content, then builds on it and restructures your content. If you want to start from scratch, use the Storyline tool. No uploads required.
Your content stays private and secure. Nothing is reused to train outside models, and your work is secure. Always.
Each experience takes a few minutes. We hope the wait is worth it to you! The Empathy Walk™ takes around five minutes. From there, your output is generated in another few minutes depending on which writing tool you choose. Storyline is the fastest. Storyboard and Recommendation take a bit longer because they return a downloadable PowerPoint file. You’re getting thinking that works hard.
Because that’s what makes the output better. Duarte AI is different from fast chat tools. It doesn’t skip straight to generic bullet points. It starts with empathy so your message actually lands. Before it shapes your content, it helps you understand your audience. That’s how Duarte AI turns your input into work that gets real business results.
