Google Gemini Canvas in Practice: Dashboard, Slides and Analysis
Google Gemini Canvas is tested here on a real business scenario by Martin Kuvandzhiev, CEO of encorp.ai. He gives Gemini a file with over 1,500 transactions for a fictional auto parts company and asks it to turn the raw data into a professional presentation, an interactive financial dashboard, a business canvas, charts and analysis, and a scenario simulator. Canvas lets Gemini create interactive content rather than a plain chat reply: HTML pages, mini sites, dashboards, presentations, PDFs and other documents. Other AI platforms often call similar features Artifacts. **What the test produces** - A management presentation with a financial overview, key metrics, three positive trends, three areas for improvement, recommendations, an action plan and a roadmap, exportable to Google Slides, PDF and PPTX - A dynamic dashboard with period selection, financial charts, channel analysis, cost structure, revenue streams, key partners and activities - A simulator for changing sales volume and delivery prices to see the effect on results Martin's verdict: Canvas is useful and can already do real business work, but for some types of data processing he still prefers other AI tools. **Who it is for:** managers and analysts exploring Gemini for reporting.
