Plus AI is a Seattle-based software company that builds an AI presentation maker working directly inside Google Slides and Microsoft PowerPoint. Rather than trapping users in a separate web editor, Plus generates and edits native slides - drafting decks from a prompt, converting documents like PDFs and Word files into presentations, rewriting and remixing existing slides, and matching custom brand templates. Founded in 2021 by former Madrona venture capitalist Daniel Li and ex-BCG and Webflow product leader Chloe Qi, the company has raised roughly $8-10M in seed funding and says its tools have been installed by more than a million users.
Daniel Li is the cofounder and CEO of Plus AI, the Seattle startup whose AI slide generator lives inside Google Slides and PowerPoint and turns prompts into finished presentations. A summa cum laude Wharton/Huntsman grad, he spent years at Boston Consulting Group formatting slides he hated, then went into venture capital at Madrona Venture Group, where he backed Snowflake, Rec Room and Common Room before leaving partner-track to build the tool he wished he had as a consultant. He writes the Pacific Northwest tech newsletter 'the DL' and tinkers on side projects through DSCO Labs.
