The team also collaborates heavily with counterparts in Editing Core, Videos, and Offline teams.
While we have shipped world class products, there is still much to be done. We have a packed upcoming road map of exciting features that will take Presentations to new heights. Expect a strong focus on AI integration, interactivity, and other power user features.
