Astute Review checks presentations for formatting and consistency (think spellcheck/Grammarly, but for formatting). After spending years dedicating countless hours to PowerPoint formatting, we had enough. So we created a tool that catches and resolves all those font issues, misaligned bullets, title misplacements, etc. that pull employees into endless busywork.
