Data Transfer Guide

GenPPT.AI doesn't offer direct export to Beautiful.ai, requiring a two-step process. First, export each presentation from GenPPT.AI as PowerPoint (.pptx) files through the export function in your account dashboard. Save these locally or to cloud storage. In Beautiful.ai, create new presentations using appropriate smart templates, then copy content slide-by-slide from your .pptx files. Paste text into Beautiful.ai's text boxes and upload images to the media library. Avoid importing entire .pptx files directly, as this bypasses Beautiful.ai's design intelligence. For complex presentations, consider breaking them into sections and migrating gradually.
