Normal view (slide view)

Term explanation

Definition and meaning

Normal View is the default editing mode in Microsoft PowerPoint. It displays the current slide in the center panel, a thumbnail panel on the left for navigating between slides, and a notes panel at the bottom for speaker notes. Normal View is where most presentation editing takes place — adding content, formatting text, inserting images, and adjusting layouts. It provides a clear, work-focused interface for building and refining individual slides.

LIZ AI enhances what you see in Normal View. It keeps slide content synchronized with live data, flags brand deviations in real time, and suggests improvements — so every slide is always presentation-ready.

Corporate Identity Compliance (CI Compliance)

Corporate identity compliance (CI compliance) describes the degree to which communications materials — such as presentations, documents, and marketing assets — adhere to a company's defined brand guidelines. This includes the correct use of colors, typography, logos, imagery, and language. Maintaining CI compliance is a significant challenge in organizations where many employees create their own materials, often without centralized oversight. AI tools are increasingly used to automate compliance checks and corrections at scale.

AI Agent

An AI agent is a software system that perceives its environment, reasons over context, and autonomously takes actions to achieve a defined goal — without requiring a human to trigger each individual step. Unlike a chatbot that responds to a single prompt, an AI agent plans, executes multi-step tasks, uses tools, and adapts based on the results it observes. AI agents can operate independently or as part of larger multi-agent systems, and are increasingly embedded in enterprise software to automate complex workflows across departments.

Screen presentation

A screen presentation refers to a presentation delivered entirely via a computer or device screen, without a physical projection setup. It is common in video calls, webinars, and remote meetings where the presenter shares their screen with participants. Screen presentations place greater emphasis on slide clarity, font size, and content structure, since the audience views content on varying screen sizes. They are increasingly the dominant format as remote and hybrid work has grown.

Pop-up Events

Pop-up events are temporary, often spontaneous gatherings organized quickly and held for a limited time in unexpected or unconventional locations. They are used in retail, marketing, arts, and community organizing to create a sense of exclusivity and surprise. Pop-up events require rapid logistics coordination and lean heavily on social media and word-of-mouth for promotion. Their short-lived nature generates urgency and tends to attract higher engagement than regularly scheduled events.
