Claude for Excel and PowerPoint Plugins: Live Demo

"Can Claude create my decks for me?"

It's the question we hear in every training session. The answer is now yes — and it goes further than you think.

Claude for Excel and Claude for PowerPoint are two add-ins that bring AI directly into the Microsoft apps you already use. Excel's plugin reads your workbook, writes formulas, and analyses multi-tab data. PowerPoint's plugin reads your slide master, fonts, and colours, then creates content that follows your brand guidelines. The real power? They share conversation context. Ask Claude to analyse data in Excel, then tell it to build a deck — it already knows what you're working on.

In this session, we go from raw data to finished presentation in 15 minutes, live.

What you'll learn:

• Set up both Claude plugins in your Microsoft environment
• Analyse and manipulate data in Excel using natural language
• Create branded, presentation-ready slides directly from your Excel analysis
• Build reusable Skills that encode your forecasting models, reporting templates, and brand guidelines
• Connect both plugins so Claude carries context from spreadsheet to slide deck

Who should attend:

Anyone in a Microsoft environment who builds reports, presentations, or decks from data. If you spend time copying numbers from Excel into PowerPoint and reformatting everything, this session replaces that workflow. No technical background required — just Excel, PowerPoint, and a Claude Pro, Max, Team, or Enterprise plan.

What you'll leave with:

• Both plugins installed and working
• A repeatable workflow for turning data into branded decks
• Starter prompts for Excel analysis and PowerPoint creation
• An understanding of how Skills make this process one-click for your team
