Powerpoint Copilot Brand

Select the published Brand Kit from Copilot → + → Select brand, then ask Copilot to restyle the existing presentation using that brand.

Apply the new brand to existing slides

1. Open the existing presentation in PowerPoint for Windows, Mac, or the web.
2. Select the Copilot icon at the bottom-right to open Copilot Chat.
3. In the prompt box, select +.
4. Select Select brand.
5. Choose your organization’s new Brand Kit.
6. Enter a specific prompt, for example:

   Reformat this presentation to use the selected Brand Kit. Apply its templates, colors, fonts, layouts, logos, and approved images while preserving the existing content.

   For a smaller, controlled change:

   Restyle slides 4–8 to match the selected Brand Kit. Preserve the wording and data, improve the visual hierarchy, and replace placeholder graphics with approved branded images.

7. Review the result before distributing the deck. Copilot can edit existing slides and reformat a presentation to match the selected branded-template style, but generated output can vary.^1^

The Brand option is therefore not normally a separate ribbon tab. It appears as Select brand under the + button in the Copilot prompt box.^2^

If “Select brand” is missing

The Brand Kit must first be configured, published, and shared with you:

• Brand Kit requires an eligible Microsoft Copilot Premium license.
• A published kit is available to its editors and viewers; an unpublished kit is visible only to editors.
• An organization-approved kit appears under the Official tab after a designated brand manager makes it official.
• Brand Kit supports PowerPoint templates in both .pptx and .potx formats.^3^

Ask the Brand Kit owner or Microsoft 365 administrator to verify that:

1. The new kit has been published, not merely saved as a draft.
2. Your account or group has viewer access.
3. The approved PowerPoint template was added to the kit.
4. The latest Brand Kit changes were published—viewers continue to receive the previous published version until that happens.^3^

Improve the conversion quality

Copilot primarily learns the intended design from representative sample slides and then from the template’s structure and layouts. The new template should therefore include realistic examples such as title, agenda, section divider, content, chart, timeline, summary, and closing slides.^2^

For reliable results:

• Define colors and fonts in the theme, rather than formatting individual objects manually.
• Put reusable logos and design elements in View → Slide Master.
• Use proper title, text, image, chart, and table placeholders, rather than ordinary text boxes where possible.
• Include sample slides showing light, medium, and content-heavy layouts.
• Convert the deck in sections if it is large or complex, because such presentations may exceed Copilot’s system limits.^1^
