OpenAI 收购演示文稿创业公司 NextSlide

NextSlide 最近宣布加入 OpenAI，这家演示文稿创业公司的团队成员目前正在参与 ChatGPT 相关工作。

NextSlide 网站目前展示了一则由创始人 Ahmed Beshry 发布的说明，其中将该公司的产品描述为一种“能够将提示词、笔记、文档或研究资料转化为精美、可编辑演示文稿”的工具。

Beshry 表示，其最终目标是“让视觉沟通更加普及，并帮助更多人清晰地表达自己的想法”。因此，加入 OpenAI 后，该团队将“继续推进同一使命：构建帮助人们创作、沟通，并将想法转化为有意义成果的 AI 产品”。

这笔交易的财务条款尚未披露。Beshry 在一则 LinkedIn 帖子中表示，这项公告“晚了几个月”，因为收购发生在“今年早些时候”。

Beshry 此前曾是 Caper AI 的联合创始人。Caper AI 是一家智能购物车/无收银员结账创业公司，已于 2021 年被 Instacart 收购。

NextSlide recently announced that it’s joining OpenAI, with the presentation startup’s team members now working on ChatGPT.

The NextSlide website currently displays a note from founder Ahmed Beshry describing the startup’s product as one “that could turn prompts, notes, documents, or research into a polished, editable presentation.”

The ultimate goal, Beshry said, was “to make visual communication more accessible and help more people express their ideas clearly.” So by joining OpenAI, the team will “continue pursuing that same mission: building AI products that help people create, communicate, and turn their ideas into meaningful work.”

The financial terms of the deal were not disclosed. In a note on LinkedIn, Beshry said the announcement is coming “a few months late,” as the acquisition took place “earlier this year.”

Beshry was previously a co-founder at Caper AI, a smart cart/cashier-less checkout startup acquired by Instacart in 2021.
