Ampler: The Ultimate PowerPoint add-in designed for consultants

Ampler is the premier PowerPoint add-in specifically optimized for management consultants. Created by a seasoned team from top consulting firms—including Bain, Deloitte, and Accenture—Ampler recognizes the critical importance of PowerPoint presentations in consulting.

Consultants are known to spend a substantial portion of their time crafting and perfecting PowerPoint slides to deliver impeccable client presentations. They are not merely users but true PowerPoint power users.

Why consultants need PowerPoint add-ins

Leading consulting firms typically develop proprietary PowerPoint add-ins, plugins, or addons designed to enhance productivity and efficiency. Notable examples include Accenture QPT (Quick Presentation Toolkit) Deloitte Ribbon, PwC Smart Add-in, Strategy& Toolbar, and Oliver Wyman OW Tools for PowerPoint.

In organizations without a dedicated PowerPoint slide library, consultants often build extensive reusable slide decks, such as the Deloitte Timesaver PowerPoint—highly regarded among Deloitte alumni or the QPT slide packs. Ampler simplifies this process significantly by offering an extensive, searchable library of over 8,000 ready-to-use items. In addition to pre-made content, Ampler allows users to easily save personal presentations, slides, icons, shapes, images, and formatting to the library for seamless team-wide or organizational sharing.

PowerPoint add-in, plugin, or add-on?

Consulting firms use various terminologies—PowerPoint add-ins, plugins, or addons—but they all refer to one essential concept: powerful, time-saving tools designed explicitly for consultant workflows.

Why choose Ampler PowerPoint add-in?

The Ampler PowerPoint add-in originated from real-world consulting frustrations. Our founders, former Bain consultants, experienced firsthand the repetitive nature of PowerPoint tasks and the inefficiency in sourcing reusable slides. Over a decade ago, we introduced an early version to prominent Nordic consultancies, Implement Consulting Group and QVARTZ (now part of Bain). Encouraged by enthusiastic feedback and requests for new features, the comprehensive Ampler suite was born. Today, Ampler also includes dedicated tools for Excel, Word, Outlook, and powerful data visualization through Ampler Charts, making it the only comprehensive software solution tailored explicitly for consultants.
