Brand kits

Create and apply brand profiles so carousels feel consistent.

Brand kits help keep generated carousels closer to your preferred colors, fonts, tone, and identity.

Use them when you want new decks, saved templates, and editor changes to start closer to the same brand system instead of restyling every carousel manually.

The Brand Kits page showing custom brand profile limits and where saved profiles become available in the editor.

Create a brand profile

Signed-in users can manage brand profiles from the Brand Kits page in the app sidebar. You can also create a profile from the editor Brand panel when your plan allows it.

The guided setup has three steps: choose a starting point, confirm the brand essentials, then review the finished kit before saving.

Import from a website

  1. Open Brand Kits and choose Create Brand Profile.
  2. Select Import from a website, paste the brand's public HTTPS URL, and choose Continue with website.
  3. Confirm the detected name, logo, colors, and heading and body fonts. Changes update the carousel preview immediately.
  4. Choose Continue to review.
  5. Check the cover and content previews. Change the logo and name, colors, or typography if needed, and add optional details such as a social handle, profile photo, tagline, or brand voice.
  6. Choose Save brand kit.

Website import gives you an editable starting point. SlideDrift can also retain extra visual references detected from the site, including imagery, spacing, component treatments, and additional typography or color details. Review the result before saving, especially when a site uses several logos, palettes, or typefaces.

If SlideDrift cannot read the site or find usable brand details, return to the first step and choose Set up manually. Manual setup uses the same essentials, review, and live-preview workflow without importing a website.

A brand profile can include:

  • Name.
  • Display name.
  • Website.
  • Social handle and platform.
  • Tagline.
  • Logo.
  • Profile photo.
  • Primary color.
  • Secondary color.
  • Heading font.
  • Body font.
  • Tone.
  • Optional advanced colors.

Paid plans include custom brand profile limits:

  • Starter: 1 custom brand profile.
  • Pro: 5 custom brand profiles.
  • Agency: 25 custom brand profiles.

Free accounts can use preset brand styles, but custom brand profiles require a paid plan.

When creating a profile, start with the fields that appear most often in your carousels: display name, website, social handle, primary color, secondary color, heading font, body font, and tone. Add a logo or profile photo when your templates include matching brand-content slots.

The brand editor keeps the main choices focused on Brand colour, Slide background, and Text colour. SlideDrift creates supporting colors automatically. Open More colour options only when you need to override the secondary brand color, accent, alternate slide background, or secondary text color; choose Use automatic colours to return those supporting values to the generated palette.

Apply a brand profile

Apply a brand profile from the Brand panel, or choose a brand profile before generating when that control is available in Create. SlideDrift updates the carousel design using the selected brand settings.

When a brand profile is selected during generation or applied in the editor, SlideDrift can use the profile's colors, heading and body fonts, background color, tone, and identity details across the deck. Identity fields can also fill supported header, footer, and template placeholders such as brand display name, website, social handle, and tagline.

For Remix Style generations, a selected brand profile can reskin the generated deck with the brand palette and heading/body fonts while preserving the remix template's layout system and visual structure.

Include brand details is on by default when you apply a profile. It fills only template slots marked for a brand name, website, social handle, tagline, logo, or profile photo. Ordinary text and images are left alone. Turn the option off to restore the template's original values.

Edit a brand profile

Saved brand profiles can be edited from the Brand Kits page or the Brand panel. Update the profile when your style changes, then apply it again to the carousel you are working on.

Use Duplicate when you want to make a close variation without rebuilding the profile from scratch.

Use Set default when one custom profile should be the first brand option for new work. Clearing the default returns the picker to the normal profile list.

Deleting a brand profile removes it from your saved profiles and editor picker. Existing carousels keep their current slide styling.

Use brand kits with templates

Templates provide the layout direction and identify which content is a logo, profile photo, or other brand field. Brand kits provide the matching values.

When using both, choose the template for structure first, then apply the brand profile so colors, fonts, tone, and identity placeholders can adapt to your brand. Remix Style templates should keep their layout system while picking up supported brand palette and typography choices.

Saved templates can also keep reusable slide structure and deck-level settings. If you want every new carousel to start from the same layout and brand direction, create or choose the template, apply the brand kit, polish the reusable deck, then save the result as a template when your plan allows it.

Common issues

If brand details do not appear on a slide, that slide may not include supported identity placeholders or marked brand-content slots.

If you do not want saved identity details in a deck, turn off Include brand details. The marked slots return to the template defaults.

If a logo looks too small, too large, or cropped, replace it with a cleaner logo file or adjust the individual image slot in the editor when supported.

If you reach the custom brand profile limit, delete an unused profile, duplicate and edit an existing profile less often, or upgrade to a plan with a higher limit.

Tips

Use brand kits for broad consistency, then make slide-level edits where needed. Some templates may still require manual polish after applying a brand.
