Pitfalls to watch at work

Beautiful.ai

Generated slide text contains generic phrases and invented metrics: replace them with your own data before presenting
Charts from uploaded tables stay in the service's cloud: upload financial data anonymized or on a corporate plan
Export to PowerPoint makes slides static and hard to re-layout, so make edits in Beautiful.ai

DeepL

On the free version texts may be stored to improve the service: translate contracts and correspondence with details only on a paid plan
Legal terms are translated with a general dictionary: without a glossary "supplier" and "contractor" can swap midway through a document
Scanned PDFs without a text layer are translated with OCR errors, so run OCR first
