[PR] An AI illustration creator tries out the AI presentation maker "Dokie AI"! A story about unexpected discoveries while playing with slide generation AI (๑•̀ω•́)✧

Hello, this is Minato. (๑╹ω╹๑ )

※This article was created with sponsorship from Dokie AI.
Thank you for the sponsorship! 😊

I'm only going to write about what I really think, okay?
Is that alright? (ﾉ∀｀lol)
Well then, let's give it a try. 👇🏻

[What is Dokie AI?]

In a nutshell, it's a tool that automatically generates presentation materials and content using AI. ✨
Just by entering a theme, you get a slide deck with a polished design.
As an AI illustration creator, I tend to focus on image generation, but
Dokie's true strength lies in "speeding up material creation."
Main features:
✅ Slide (PPT) generation
✅ AI image generation (powered by GPT Image 2)
✅ Article/document generation
✅ Long Scroll (vertical content) generation
✅ Design improvement for existing slides

Pricing:
・Free plan: Credits granted upon registration + 200 credits added daily
・Plus: $19/month
・Pro: $59/month

You can try quite a lot for free, so I recommend giving it a go first. (๑•̀ω•́)و

☆TOP Screen

For now, it looks like a general-purpose area.
Should I try entering a topic or idea here? 👀

I entered the theme "An AI illustration creator gives Dokie AI a serious review"! Waiting a few minutes...
Maybe it's my internet connection? 🤔

It made a serious review for me! lol
The design is actually stylish. ✨
I get the impression it's more of a draft than a finished product, but
it's way faster than starting from scratch, and not having to worry about layout is a huge plus. ( •̀ᴗ•́ )و

☆Image Generation

[GPT Image 2]
This is the part I was looking forward to the most!
As an AI illustration creator, I really wanted to test the image generation feature. (๑•̀ω•́)✨️

It came out looking just right with just a simple description. ✨
The one that came out with the theme "Acid Vibe Collage" had a great atmosphere! 🍀

Next, I tried choosing a style!
Speaking of Shio-chan, it's gotta be cute and purple, right! (*´艸`)

Somehow, it created a character reference sheet with just that description!! ∑ (･△･;)
And the illustration is pretty, too. (´ー｀*)

Compared to AI dedicated to image generation, fine-tuning the art style is difficult, but
it's a perfect match for the purpose of "quickly creating images to use in slides"!

[Verifying character consistency]
I thought, "If that's the case, could I make an animation-like presentation?"
So I turned Shio-chan's day into a presentation. (□-□)✧
When I threw in the theme "Shio-chan's Day—From Morning to Night"...

I tried making it, but it's a bit lacking.
In some places, it turns into a different character 💧
It seems to struggle with character consistency in long-form content.
I think there are still some challenges for use cases where you want to use the same character throughout. ( ; ˘-ω-)

☆Write draft

Next, I tried using "Write draft"!
It's kind of the tool to let you confirm the outline first after entering a theme (๑•̀ω•́)

This time, I entered the theme "How to get started with AI illustration."

There is a confirmation step like, "Is this flow okay to proceed with?"
It's subtly nice to be able to confirm the direction instead of just generating it immediately.

Oh, it's properly structured! ✨
With a flow of "Introduction" -> "How to choose tools" -> "Basics of prompts" -> "Resources for improvement,"
it covers all the necessary content as an introduction to AI illustration.
However, the content is a bit generic, perhaps?
The right way to use it might be to "use it as a draft and flesh it out with your own words"! (｡•̀ᴗ-)
It was very intuitive because it works in three steps: input, confirmation, and generation!

☆Make Long Scroll

Next is "Make Long Scroll"!

It's a feature that says, "Let's create a visual story that flows on a smartphone."
Besides text input, it seems you can create long-form content from documents, URLs, and YouTube.
Since I'm at it, I tried pasting the URL of my note article directly into "Long image from URL"!
After waiting a few minutes...

Just by pasting the note article URL, a picture book came out 😲

[Good points]
・Converts to a long visual just by pasting a URL
・It even read the character settings and turned it into a story
・The design is beautiful

[Points of concern]
・Text and images can sometimes be misaligned by one frame
・Line breaks occur in strange places

☆Generate Slides

Finally, "Generate Slides"!

It's a feature that lives up to the tagline, "Turn rough ideas into presentations that get the message across."
I entered the theme "3 steps to create characters with Niji Journey v7"!

Oh, it's become a proper presentation material (๑•̀ω•́)✧
From the table of contents to the explanation of each step, the structure is automatically organized and the content looks decent!
I was honestly surprised that it even picked up the parameters for Niji v7.

[Good points]
・Structure is automatically organized just by rough input
・Content is solid
・Design is unified and stylish

[Points of concern]
・Text overlaps on top of anime illustrations on the title slide, making it hard to read
・There are blank squares on some slides (images didn't load)
It needs adjustment to be used as a finished product, but the quality is more than enough as a draft (╹ω╹*)✨

☆[Verification Results Summary]

Here is my honest evaluation after trying it out!

[Recommended for these people]
✅ People who want to create materials and presentations quickly
✅ People who are not good at design but want to create good-looking materials
✅ People who want AI to create drafts of content
✅ People who want to convert URLs or existing content into long visuals
✅ People who want to complete everything on a smartphone

❌ People who want to use full-scale AI image generation as their main tool
❌ People who want to maintain the same character throughout
❌ People who want to use it as a finished product without adjustments

[Summary/Closing]
Dokie AI was really well-made as a "material creation AI" (๑•̀ω•́)✧
The thing that surprised me the most after trying all the features was Make Long Scroll.

I was shocked when I pasted the URL of my note article and Shio-chan's original story came out as a long visual (((゜Д゜；)))

I didn't expect it to go this far...
A presentation tool to this extent!? ∑(・△・;)

As for image generation, which I was curious about as an AI illustration creator, fine control is difficult compared to dedicated tools, but it's totally fine if you want to "quickly create images to use in materials."
Honestly, it's difficult to say if it can be used as-is without adjustments, but I can definitely recommend it to people who want to "reduce the time spent creating from scratch" or "want a draft!"
