Amazon Quick gets brand templates: on-brand decks and docs, automatically

Hi, it's Shii-chan! Amazon Quick can now make on-brand materials.

AWS What's New aws.amazon.com

What was announced?

AWS What's New announced that Amazon Quick now supports brand templates, so you can create presentations and documents that match your approved visual identity. Brand managers set up a template once, and everyone gets on-brand output without hunting for the right file in each chat.

What changes

Less hassle picking templates, and a consistent look across the whole organization.

Dive Deep

How it works:

  • Brand managers upload PowerPoint or Word templates, or pull them from a connected file store such as SharePoint
  • Quick extracts the colors, fonts, logos, layouts, and brand rules from each file
  • A brand manager reviews and edits what Quick found before publishing it to the whole organization
  • Quick follows a template's rules as it creates new assets. If a request breaks a rule, Quick explains why and suggests an on-brand alternative
  • For each task, Quick picks the best-fit template based on guidance the brand manager writes. Users can still choose a different template
  • Administrators use custom permissions to decide who can create and publish brand templates, for example limiting it to approved brand or marketing teams

Brand assets are generally available in the Amazon Quick desktop app.

Wrap-up

  • Upload brand templates so Quick's output follows your brand
  • Colors, fonts, logos, layouts, and rules are extracted and can be reviewed before publishing
  • Rule-breaking requests get an explanation and an alternative
  • Admins control who can create and publish templates

It's a good fit for marketing and brand teams working to keep their materials consistent.
