Claude Design: Build Slides, Sites, Systems via Chat
Claude Design lets you conversationally create high-fidelity pitch decks, landing pages, and design systems from prompts and screenshots, with exports to PowerPoint/Canva and handoff to code for deployment—gained 6.6M views in 1 hour.
Conversational Creation of Pitch Decks and Prototypes
Access Claude Design at claude.ai/design (research preview, rolling out soon). Select slide deck or prototype, choose high-fidelity (pixel-perfect finals) or wireframing (structure-focused). Upload screenshots, Figma files, or codebases for context like brand colors/fonts. Prompt conversationally—Claude asks clarifying questions (e.g., company name, services) to refine before generating. Example: "Build a slideshow for $2,000 landscaping sales post-call" yields a multi-page deck matching uploaded site theme. Navigate pages via bottom bar; images generate asynchronously.
Precise Editing and Multi-Tool Exports
Refine with tools: comment on elements (e.g., "Make font 10px larger") for AI updates; direct edits to color/size/font/weight; draw to highlight (e.g., circle areas); chat via Ctrl+G for granular changes (e.g., "Enlarge headline"). Enter presentation/fullscreen mode. Export decks to PowerPoint directly; Canva (configure connector in claude.ai settings for write access); Google Slides (import PPT). High-fidelity prototypes become deployable designs from simple prompts plus screenshots, like a one-pager for "$10K AI content system."
Website Handoff, Deployment, and Design Systems
For sites, export prototype and handoff to Claude Code (copy command to new chat)—generates full codebase. Deploy free via GitHub repo to Vercel for live static hosting. Create design systems (15 minutes): input company details, GitHub link/code/Figma/assets; generates reusable system. Apply via URL in future projects for consistent theming across slides/sites. Trade-off: first outputs near-perfect but need tweaks; excels at rapid ideation over pixel-perfect from scratch, potentially replacing Figma/Canva for quick builds.
