Slides = hook + key points + proof points + CTA
Estimated Slide Count
9
The estimate is capped at 20 slides and should be edited down when the story can be clearer with fewer frames.
If the estimated count feels high, combine adjacent teaching points before design. A carousel should feel sequenced, not stuffed.
Use the count to plan layout variety early: hook, teaching frames, proof frames, recap, and CTA should not all use the same visual rhythm.
