Problem
Consultants who leave firms lose the custom keyboard shortcuts that made them fast at building slides, reverting to slow right-click menus and ribbon hunting. This productivity loss forces them to spend twice as long on half the slides in corporate roles.
Solution
SlideShortcuts is a PowerPoint add-in and Google Slides Chrome extension that restores 70+ keyboard shortcuts for aligning, distributing, resizing, grouping, layering, inserting, and formatting slide objects. It also includes deck clean-up commands like a pre-flight check, font-to-theme conversion, and speaker-note removal. The same license key works across PowerPoint for Windows and Mac and the Google Slides Chrome extension, so users get their speed back in any deck. Shortcuts activate instantly after a one-time installer and license key paste, with a reference pane built into the add-in. The product is designed specifically around how consultants build slides, including smart paste from Excel and jump-to-shape navigation.
Target Audience
Primary customers are former consultants and other professionals who build presentations in PowerPoint or Google Slides and want to regain firm-level speed and formatting consistency.
