Term explanation
A .ppsx file is a PowerPoint show file that opens directly in slideshow mode, skipping the editing interface. Unlike .pptx files, which open in the editor, a .ppsx starts the presentation immediately when double-clicked. This makes it ideal for distributing finalized presentations to audiences who only need to view the content. The .ppsx format replaced the older .pps format introduced in Office 2007.
LIZ AI keeps your PowerPoint show files always up to date. It connects to your data sources, updates content automatically, and ensures every slide show is brand-compliant before it runs.

The user provides a prompt — a topic, goal, or brief description — and a generative AI system produces a full slide deck including structure, content, and layout. Advanced prompt-to-deck systems go beyond simple templates: they pull in live data, apply brand guidelines automatically, and produce results comparable to a full AI presentation maker. The term is used interchangeably with "text-to-presentation."
Learn moreA large language model (LLM) is an AI system trained on vast amounts of text data that can understand, generate, and transform language at a human-like level. LLMs power a wide range of applications — from chatbots and writing assistants to automated document creation and data summarization. In enterprise software, LLMs are increasingly embedded into workflows to interpret unstructured data, draft content, and translate information between systems automatically. In contrast, the Large Presentation Model (LPM) is a specialised AI system that orchestrates the entire presentation cycle in an enterprise context.
Learn moreA data-driven presentation is a slide deck in which the content — charts, KPIs, tables, and narrative text — is directly derived from live or structured data sources rather than manually entered. Rather than copying figures from a dashboard into PowerPoint, data-driven presentations pull information automatically from connected systems such as CRM, ERP, or BI tools. The result is a living presentation that always reflects current data — and is the foundation of Agentic Slides architecture.
Learn moreA living presentation is a slide deck that continuously updates to reflect the latest data, content, and context — rather than being a static snapshot. Like a living document, it is connected to data sources that feed new information into the slides automatically. Living presentations are a practical implementation of the Agentic Slides concept and are the natural output of data-driven presentation workflows. They are particularly valuable for recurring formats such as management reports and investor updates.
