Describe your corporate design once so offgen designs new slides in your colors, fonts and style.

Create a design system
- Open Design systems and select New design system.
- Choose how to start:
- From a deck: drop a presentation you already use, ideally your company master or a recent deck. offgen reads its theme colors, fonts, shapes and layouts. This takes about 2 to 5 minutes.
- By hand: select Start manual setup, pick a direction (Image-heavy, Visual / diagrammatic or Text-focused) and your three main colors.
- Review the result. Select Use this design system, or Apply and fine-tune to adjust it first.
Edit a design system
Open a design system from the list. The editor has sections for the design direction, colors, typography, bullets, icons, shapes, guidance and layouts.
- Under Guidance, set the Default content density (Lean, Balanced or Detailed) and write rules for slide style, deck structure, images and icons.
- Select Save when you're done.
- Make default makes it your organization's default design system.
On the list, you can also Copy a design system or delete it.
How offgen uses it
| Where | What happens |
|---|---|
| AI Creative and AI Alternative | offgen picks the design system whose master matches the master of the selected slide. If several match, the default wins. If none matches, offgen follows the slide's own design. |
| AI Agent | The agent works with the presentation's own design. Name a design system in your message if you want it to use one. |
| Web chat at app.offgen.ai | New chats start with the default design system. |
| Workflows | Not used. Workflow slides come from your templates and their master. |
Matching works by master. A design system applies when the slide's master has the same theme colors and fonts as the design system's master, plus the same master name or a layout with the same name. Build the design system from the master your team actually uses.
