Make the animated stat trustworthy and usable in the presentation: begin with a one‑line context ('Projected tree canopy increase'), animate the number in a readable sans serif at large size, avoid flashy easing that distracts, include the data source in small type, and export both looping and single‑play versions so presenters can choose based on timing constraints.

Questions people ask

honest answers

Because you rarely think 'I want the redaction tool'. You think 'I have to share this without leaking the client's details'. Start from the need, and the feature finds you.

No. Each page gives you a ready prompt you can paste into an AI assistant, plus the plain steps to do it yourself. Start with either — the goal is the finished job, not the tool.
