Skywork AI – Research‑to‑Slides Agent 📚➡️📊

Skywork AI’s Slides Agent takes a research brief, pulls in trusted sources, and then generates slide outlines, speaker notes, and supporting documents in one flow. It emphasizes traceable citations and academic-style summaries, so you can see exactly where claims come from while still moving fast.

Consultants, educators, and knowledge workers use Skywork AI to turn deep research into presentation-ready material without starting from a blank deck. From workshop slides to internal strategy reviews, you get structured content plus sources you can confidently share.

Gemini for Docs & Slides – Workspace Native Copilot 🧠📄🎨

Gemini for Workspace adds generative AI directly inside Google Docs and Slides so you can brainstorm, draft, and refine without leaving your editor. In Docs it helps you outline, rewrite, and summarize content; in Slides it can draft new slides, summarize entire decks, and generate images and visuals inline.

Teams already living in Google Workspace use Gemini to turn rough notes into polished documents and presentations faster. Because it can reference Drive files for context, it feels less like a generic chatbot and more like a knowledgeable collaborator that “knows” your workspace.

Reclaim AI – Calendar Defense & Habit Time‑Blocking 📅🛡️

Reclaim AI optimizes your calendar by automatically blocking time for focused work, habits, and meetings based on your priorities and availability. It adapts to shifting schedules, protects deep‑work blocks, and turns recurring activities like planning, workouts, or reading into flexible but defended events.

Busy professionals use Reclaim AI so their days reflect what actually matters, not just incoming meetings. With smart scheduling and habit protection, your calendar becomes a living strategy document instead of a reactive invitation list.
