What does Tome do?

Case studies, pitches, mood boards…You name it, I’ve had to create it. And when you have little background in design this can be tough. I don’t have the PowerPoint magic and I can’t bring my ideas to life. This frustration has led me to slam my laptop shut too many times.

Welcome Tome. Tome is an AI app which automates presentation creation using a variety of AI-powered tools. It focuses and thrives on storytelling - giving you the tools you need to create beautiful work, quickly. Through the use of AI you can instantly generate new content and approaches to fit your needs, helping you communicate your visions super clearly.

Sometimes it can be hard to figure out where to start. All my ideas are running through my head, but I’ve been staring at a blank screen for the last two hours and no progress has been made. Luckily, Tome has a wide range of templates to fit your needs and get your creative ball rolling. Templates for invoices, team meetings, creative reviews…the list goes on.

You don’t need to be related to Shakespeare to create engaging stories. Simply paste your text into the platform and Tome will start building a story around the information you’ve included. With a big focus on improving readability, you’ll have a piece of work that engages your audience in no time. Another useful tool from Tome is the drag-and-drop feature. This makes it so much easier for you to play around with your ideas. Being able to see your ideas grow in real-time is a big benefit.

I don’t know about you, but a lot of the time when I publish something, a few days later I’ve totally forgotten about it. It’s been pushed into the world, never to be seen again. I don’t know what has or hasn’t worked, if it was successful or not, did people even look at it? Tome have a solution for this. They’ve created a performance tracking feature, so you can always keep an eye on your published work. Being able to see real-time analytics on published work is a big yes from me! It means I can constantly refine and improve my content approach. As well as this, it enhances my understanding of my audience and allows me to shape my content strategy accordingly.

Don’t get me wrong, Tome is a beautiful piece of tech. It’s lovely to look at, but it definitely feels like it is a platform that was made by designers, targeted towards designers. For someone who hasn’t got a design background, the interface may feel a little unclear, whereas to a designer it probably feels super intuitive to use. Unlike PowerPoint's overwhelming array of buttons and tools, Tome has taken the opposite approach – it appears too simple at first, almost to the point of complexity. But, there is a saving grace in the form of an AI search bar at the bottom of the screen that helps clear a few things up.

It’s not just presentations that Tome will help you succeed at. You can create invites, photo albums and even your portfolio. The beautifully designed tools will have you creating something you’re proud of in no time.

Pros

  • Everything is organised and easily accessible
  • Easy to navigate and make your own

Cons

  • The learning curve is a bit steep

Alternatives

  • Beautiful.ai - If you’re looking to improve traditional slides, Beautiful.ai is for you. But if you want to create more of an engaging story in a presentation format, stick with Tome.
  • Gamma - If you’re a professional, Gamma has a lot more business-orientated templates than Tome.
  • Pitch - Similar to beautiful.ai but a little cheaper!

Our Verdict on Tome

If you need a little help with communicating a story, keeping people engaged and you also want to create something gorgeous, sign up to Tome. Tome really ticks all the boxes for me (after getting my head around how it works!) It has saved me so much time and I no longer feel deflated and tired at the end of creating a presentation.

One thing to keep in mind is the learning curve of Tome. If you have no design background, opt for a simpler platform like Beautiful.ai. It assists you in bringing your ideas to life effortlessly, making the process of creating and sharing stories enjoyable. But if you’re a designer, Tome was made for you.
