Presentation template design that lets your team build on-brand decks without us.

Right now, someone in your business is building a deck. They’ve opened last year’s version, deleted everything except the logo, and they’re about to pick a font.

Our PowerPoint template design services put a stop to that. We design and build custom PowerPoint templates that let your whole team rinse and repeat your results, with every layout, colour, chart and font set up before anyone types a word. Built to work with Copilot, too. We’ve made more than 200 of them, for brands from Bentley Motors to Harvard Business School.

On-brand presentations every time.

Consistency cements credibility. When every deck that leaves your business looks like it came from the same company, the people on the receiving end trust what’s inside it.

Without a template that works, you get the opposite. Crazy colour schemes. Stretched logos. Six fonts on one slide and a chart that’s been copied between decks since 2017. Nobody did it on purpose. They had a deadline and nothing better to start from.

Our PowerPoint template design services fix it at the source. Your brand lives in the slide master, so the right colours, fonts and layouts are the easiest thing on the screen to use.

A human-first template,
AI-ready if you want it.

Clients keep asking us the same question about templates: will it work with Copilot? Yes. We design PowerPoint templates that Microsoft Copilot can build from, so when someone on your team asks it for a deck, the slides come back on brand instead of looking like everyone else’s. Working in Claude? We’ll set your template up for that too.

The catch? Copilot and Claude can only build on brand from a template that’s built properly. Broken placeholders and formatting applied slide by slide leave them guessing, and their guesses aren’t on brand. That’s why every template we make passes our 50-point template check, so your AI tools can read it layout by layout. Designing for AI costs nothing extra.

What we won’t do is hand the design itself to AI. We’re human-first: our designers make every design decision in your template. AI is one of their tools, and it never gets the final say. That’s where the brand judgement lives, and it’s why your slides look like you.

Book a call

Build presentations faster.

PowerPoint template design services take the manual labour out of building slides. Your layouts, graphic assets, colour palette and fonts are handled at the back end, so your team picks a layout, drops in the content and gets back to the work that pays. An afternoon of nudging text boxes becomes the time it takes to write what you want to say.

What’s inside our custom PowerPoint templates.

A Hype template is a working tool, not a brand asset that gathers dust on the intranet. Most of ours have around 25 layouts, and every one comes with:

Slide masters and layouts for the slides your team builds most: title, agenda, section dividers, content, data, team, quotes, case studies and close.
Your brand set at master level. Theme colours, fonts, logo placement and margins, so nothing drifts from deck to deck.
Chart and table styles that pick up your brand automatically, from the first bar chart to the last.
An icon and image library, so nobody goes hunting for clip art.
On-slide instructions on every layout, placed off the edge of the slide where presenters see them and audiences don’t.
Accessibility built in. Reading order, alt text prompts and colour contrast, checked before handover.

Want more? We can animate the slide master, build matching versions in other software, and train your team.

As locked down
or as flexible
as you need.

It’s one of the first things people ask about our PowerPoint template design services, and the answer is yes, both.

Some teams need the brand nailed to the floor: logo, colours and fonts locked in the master, so the most creative person in sales can’t go rogue. Others need room to move, because a marketing team building campaign decks will suffocate inside a strict grid.

We work out where your line sits during discovery, layout by layout. You can have a locked core and a few flexible layouts for the people who’ve earned them.

PowerPoint template design services built to pass a 50-point check.

Every template we build goes through our 50-point template check before it leaves the studio. It’s the difference between a template that looks right in a screenshot and one that still works six months later, after 200 people have pasted their old slides into it.

The 50-point template check covers the things nobody notices until they break:

Placeholders set up properly, so content lands where it should and stays there.
Theme colours and fonts set once in the master, not slide by slide.
Charts and tables that take on the brand without manual formatting.
Paste-in behaviour, so old slides adopt the new design instead of fighting it.
Alt text and reading order, so the template meets accessibility standards.
File size, so the template opens fast and doesn’t bounce off an email server.

Can’t our in-house designer build it?

Your in-house designer is a designer, and a good one, we’d bet. But a PowerPoint template is a piece of engineering as much as a piece of design, and building one properly takes people who live inside slide masters. That’s us. We’ll take your designer’s brand thinking and make sure it survives contact with PowerPoint.

A template your team will open on purpose.

Most businesses already have a template. It’s on the shared drive. Nobody uses it.

Templates get ignored when they’re hard to use, so we make ours hard to ignore. Every layout carries on-slide instructions explaining what it’s for and how to fill it. We can also train your team on the new template over a call, on site or through a recorded video, so day one isn’t spent guessing.

That’s how 250+ colleagues at Totalmobile ended up building on one template.

Our PowerPoint template creation process.

Our PowerPoint template design services run in six stages, with a specialist on each and an account manager as your single point of contact throughout. Expect a first draft within a week or two of kick-off.

Discovery.

We find out how your team uses PowerPoint today: who builds decks, what they build, where it goes wrong and how locked down the template needs to be.

Look and feel.

We base the look and feel on your brand guidelines, sticking to them closely or pushing them further. Your call. No guidelines? We’ll talk through what you like and what we’d recommend.

Design.

We design every layout in your template. Most land at around 25 layouts. Need more? We’ll design more.

Build.

We build the designs into the slide master, with your colours, fonts and chart styles set at the back end, tips on every layout and animation if you want it. Then the template goes through our 50-point template check.

Review and feedback.

Tell us what you love and what needs a tweak, and we’ll refine it. We’re not happy until you’re delighted.

Delivery and beyond.

The finished template is yours. We can train your team on it, and when you need a new layout next year, we’re still here.

Three elements for the perfect PowerPoint template.

A great PowerPoint template design can make all the difference in your presentation. But what makes a template truly effective? We believe that there are three key elements that are essential for the perfect PowerPoint template. Let’s take a closer look.

Visual appeal

The cornerstone of an outstanding PowerPoint template is its visual appeal. It should not only capture attention, but also embody your brand’s ethos. Your template will feature a colour palette, typography, imagery, and graphics that align seamlessly with your brand, ensuring your message is delivered with impact. An aesthetically pleasing template engages your audience from the first slide to the last.

Functionality

Your template must be robust yet user-friendly. It’s designed to keep your presentations within brand guidelines effortlessly, avoiding the pitfalls of off-brand content or the need for users to start from scratch. It includes all necessary layouts, making the process of building presentations quicker, more enjoyable, and consistently on-brand.

Consistency

Consistency is key in any powerful PowerPoint template. From fonts and colours to imagery, your template maintains a cohesive style that makes your content accessible and easy to digest. A well-structured flow and logical format aid in communicating your message clearly and effectively.

What
they say.

PowerPoint Template

An absolute pleasure working with you guys on this project. Well managed, great communication, great design and build. Fantastic result. The final result fixed an issue the company has had for many years. I think people don’t really understand the benefits of a professionally-done PowerPoint template design. People tend to think of it as an add-on to the end of a brand or website project.

FAQs.

What is a PowerPoint template?

A PowerPoint template is a pre-designed set of layouts that can be used as a framework for creating a presentation. It includes placeholders for text, images, and other content, as well as a consistent design and formatting.

Why should I use a custom PowerPoint template?

A custom PowerPoint template can help to reinforce your brand identity, make your presentations more visually engaging, and ensure consistency across all of your presentations.

Can I use my own branding and colour scheme in the custom PowerPoint template?

Yes, absolutely. Our team will work with you to understand your branding and preferences, and will create a custom template that reflects your unique style and messaging.

Can you build a template that works with AI tools like Copilot and Claude?

Yes. Every template we make is designed and built by people first, so the brand and the design decisions are handled by experts. If you’d like your team to build new decks using AI tools like Copilot and Claude, we can design the template with that in mind. Worth knowing: AI tools understand simpler templates best, so there’s a balance to strike between visual flair and how easily AI can build from it. We’ll walk you through that choice and design the template around the way you want to work.

How long does it take to create a custom PowerPoint template?

The timeline for creating a custom PowerPoint template depends on the complexity of the design and the number of revisions needed. Generally, we aim to deliver the first draft of the template within a week or two, and then work with you to make any necessary revisions.

What if I already have a PowerPoint template I want to use?

If you already have an existing PowerPoint template, our team can work with you to refresh and update it, or make any necessary modifications to ensure that it meets your current needs and objectives.

Can I use the custom PowerPoint template for multiple presentations?

Yes, absolutely. The custom PowerPoint template can be used for multiple presentations, and can be modified as needed to suit the specific content and messaging of each presentation.

How much does a custom PowerPoint template cost?

It depends on how many layouts you need and how complex the design is, but most PowerPoint template design projects sit in the same range as a standard presentation project. For more detail, take a look at our presentation design pricing.
