# Presentations — the brief, the fixture and the scoring

Sent as one message, free tier, fresh chat (Claude: incognito), memo pasted inline under the brief so every tool can read it without a file upload. If a tool asks a question instead of building, the answer is "Use the memo as is" once; a second question ends the run.

> Make me an 8-slide deck for my two-person team about our shop's Q2 results, using only the facts in the memo below - do not add any. Slides: 1 title, 2 revenue by month, 3 revenue by category, 4 top products, 5 orders by region, 6 the two data problems we found, 7 three actions for Q3, 8 closing. Short speaker notes on every slide. Give me the deck as a .pptx file, or a link I can open in PowerPoint or Google Slides.

## The fixture

`q2-memo.md`: seven bullets about a fictional Lisbon online shop's second quarter, built from the Excel test's cleaned data (`../best-ai-for-excel/fixtures/`). It carries **25 checkable facts**: 120 orders, 20 customers, €28.30 average; three monthly figures and the quarter total; three category figures; three products with unit counts; five regional order counts and two regional revenues; two data problems with their counts; three Q3 actions. Anything on a slide that is not in the memo is invented.

## Scoring

- **Deck delivered** - a .pptx that opens, or a link that opens in PowerPoint or Google Slides. A deck described in text, an outline, or a "here is the structure" reply is not a deck.
- **Slides** - count against 8, and whether the eight subjects appear in the order asked.
- **Facts right** of 25 - every number and name on the slides checked against the memo, read from the file with python-pptx.
- **Invented** - facts, numbers, names or claims on the slides that the memo does not contain.
- **Notes** - slides carrying speaker notes, of 8.
- **Readability** - the deck exported to PDF through Keynote and looked at: text cut off or overflowing, unreadable contrast, empty placeholders, broken charts. Noted, not scored as a number.
- Time to answer, questions asked before building, refusals, output form (file, link, or text), language.
