# Startup Stories: Mike Cornelius, cofounder Decky.ai

Today on Startup Founder Stories, we catch up with Mike Cornelius the cofounder of Decky.ai, a tool designed to help simplify the constant customization of slide decks.

Share your deck once and Decky learns your fonts, colors, layouts, and design patterns. New slides match perfectly every time. Include PDFs, spreadsheets, images, or data files. Decky uses them to generate accurate, data-driven slides. Works directly inside Google Slides. No exports, no copy-paste. Just generate slides that look like yours. Decky only learns from YOUR slides. Generated content stays consistent with your brand, not generic templates.
