Your brand in, your report redesigned

In the browser, no install, no data upload (an optional paid AI plan sends only a page outline). Drop your brand (a PowerPoint template, logo, theme JSON, brand PDF or website) and a Power BI project zip, pick how the report should read, and get the same report back: pages re-laid out on a brand grid or in a template you pick, a header band and logo, the theme, and a change log that explains every move.

Start with your brand

Drop any of these. We combine them into one brand kit you can tweak.

The kit needs at least a background, a text colour and one accent.

Why not just import a theme?

A theme sets defaults, and formatting saved on a visual overrides it, so an imported theme often changes less than expected. Brand Makeover also moves visuals into a clear layout, rescales pages to the 1920×1080 canvas and rewrites the per-visual formatting that is safe to change. Copilot in Power BI doesn't support styling or formatting changes (Microsoft Learn: Create reports with Copilot), and the design skills for developer agent tools run in a CLI or IDE; this runs in one browser tab with a visual before/after.

Questions

Is my report uploaded?

Not for the free makeover. Your project zip, PowerPoint template and logo are read by JavaScript in this browser tab (in a background worker), and the redesigned zip is built there too. Only a website address, if you choose that brand source, is fetched by our server. The optional paid AI plan is different: when you run it, an outline of your pages is sent to our server and the AI model (visual types, roles and positions, plus field names, page names and titles only if you turn off “anonymise”, which is on by default). Never data values, DAX or the project files, and nothing is stored.

What is the AI plan?

An optional, paid second opinion on the layout, after the free makeover: the AI suggests roles, titles, alt text and page sections, every suggestion is checked against the same rules as the free plan, and you accept them box by box. It costs 2 credits for up to 10 pages, +1 per further 10 pages; re-plan 1 credit (within 24 hours, at most 3 times). Credits are refunded automatically if the AI call fails, times out or no page passes the checks.

What changes, and what never does?

Page size (1920×1080 for 16:9 pages), visual positions, z-order and tab order, the report theme, page backgrounds (header band, logo, a card behind each visual) and a short list of safe formatting properties such as container borders and shadows. Queries, measures, filters, bookmarks, interactions, drill-through bindings, visual names, conditional formatting, custom visuals' own formatting, mobile layouts and the semantic model are never written: each is hashed before and after, and any difference stops the download.

How are pages re-laid out?

Each visual gets a role (KPI, trend, comparison, detail, filter, navigation…) from its type and fields, with a reason and a confidence. Pages are then laid out on a clean brand grid, or in a catalog template drawn in your brand when one fits closely enough: you can pick a template for any page on the Review screen, or arrive from a template page to try that template first. Low-confidence visuals, hidden visuals and grouped visuals stay where they are, scaled with the page, until you confirm a role.

What do the presets do?

Executive puts 3–5 KPIs top-left, keeps pages to about six visuals and uses large titles. Analyst keeps dense pages: a left filter rail, up to twelve visuals and tables at full width. Board gives each page one message: 1–3 hero KPIs, up to four visuals, flat print-safe cards and a landscape print pack of the before/after. Operational is for wall displays: up to eight KPIs in two big rows, 16pt text, 7:1 text contrast and an optional dark background. Accessible keeps the filter rail and visual header icons for keyboard users, asks for 7:1 text contrast and 14pt text, draws 2px card borders instead of shadows, and flags red/green neighbours and colour-only status. Pages with more visuals than the preset suits are flagged with a suggestion; pages are never split. Mobile-first is coming later.

Is the before/after picture a render of my report?

No. Previews are wireframes: one labelled box per visual over the new background. The real visuals render when you open the project in Power BI Desktop.

What is in the zip?

Your whole project with only the allowed files changed, plus MAKEOVER.md (brand, pages, every visual's role and move, warnings, the integrity hashes) and makeover.json (the same change log for machines). Running the same makeover again on its own output changes nothing.

Why does the theme use a different font?

Power BI doesn't embed fonts, so viewers without your brand font see a fallback. When your font doesn't ship with Power BI Desktop, the kit uses the closest one that does and says so; brand fonts show only where installed.

I only want a new theme and backgrounds.

Use Quick restyle (Restyle my report): theme and backgrounds on every page, and an optional 1280×720 to 1920×1080 resize, without moving any visual.

Only need the theme? PowerPoint template to Power BI theme builds theme.json and backgrounds from your template.

Presets and use cases

Each page shows a real before/after run on a sample report.

Want to design a page from scratch instead?

The Design Studio lays out a page at Power BI's pixel size with panels, titles and visual slots in your brand, then exports the background, theme JSON and a PBIP project.
