Term explanation
Vertical communication means that information is passed from one person to the next according to a linear system based on their titles. This type of communication is used when a company follows a hierarchical structure or for important, sensitive information.
LIZ AI supports vertical communication by ensuring leadership decks and board presentations are always data-accurate, brand-compliant, and ready to deliver — without the manual preparation burden on executive teams.

An orchestration layer acts as a conductor: it decides which agent handles which task, in what order, and how outputs are passed between steps — following the same logic as an orchestrator agent. In enterprise communication, AI orchestration enables end-to-end automation — gathering data, structuring content, applying brand guidelines, and publishing a final presentation — all without human handoffs between each stage.
Learn moreAn autonomous agent is an AI system that independently pursues goals, makes decisions, and executes tasks over time — without requiring continuous human direction. What distinguishes an autonomous agent from a simple automation script is its ability to reason, adapt to new information, and handle unexpected situations. Autonomous agents track progress toward a goal across multiple steps and sessions, making them suitable for complex enterprise workflows such as automated reporting, content updates, and communication management.
Learn moreA .ppsm file is a macro-enabled PowerPoint slideshow that opens directly in presentation mode and supports embedded VBA macros. It combines the instant-launch behavior of .ppsx files with the automation capabilities of macro-enabled formats. This makes .ppsm files useful for interactive or automated presentations, though they carry the same security considerations as other macro-enabled Office formats.
Learn moreA .ppt file is a presentation created with Microsoft PowerPoint, containing slides with text, images, animations, and transition effects. The .ppt format is the legacy binary version of PowerPoint's native format, predating the XML-based .pptx format introduced with Office 2007. While .pptx has since become the standard, .ppt files remain widely supported for backwards compatibility across modern presentation software.
