Fast Templates: Start From Inspiration, Not Scratch​

⭐ Voted by customers on our public roadmap

Starting a new Playlist or Deal Room meant starting from a blank canvas, with no guidance on structure and no examples to learn from.

Fast Templates gives you a gallery of curated, ready-made templates built from real use cases. Browse what's possible, pick what fits, and launch without the setup work.

What you can do:

  • Browse curated templates for Playlists and Deal Rooms
  • Discover Walnut capabilities you may not have tried yet
  • Start from a real example and make it your own

The result: Less time on setup, more time on the story. Go from zero to a polished Playlist or Deal Room in minutes.

Guides Brand Voice: AI Guides That Sound Like You​

⭐ Voted by customers on our public roadmap

AI-generated guides are fast to create but often need rewriting to match your brand's tone before they're ready to use.

With Guides Brand Voice, define your company's voice once and apply it to every Story Capture guide in a single click, so the first draft is already on-brand.

What you can do:

  • Set tone, terminology, product names and do's and don'ts once for your whole team
  • Apply Brand Voice when generating any guide instantly
  • Ship guides faster with less time editing AI output

The result: Guides that sound like your brand from the very first draft. Less editing, faster publishing, consistent voice across every demo your team creates.

Deal Rooms and Playlists: UX Upgrades​

A wide-ranging update to editing, branding and organization, covering things that were overdue and things customers asked for directly.

What's new:

  • Rich-text editing with bullet lists, numbered lists and adjustable line spacing
  • Interactive checklists buyers can tick off directly in the Deal Room
  • Card image style options for gallery and carousel cards with control over how many cards show per row
  • Inline viewing for Office files (Excel, PowerPoint, Word) without downloading
  • Two-logo banner for co-branded Deal Room headers
  • Duplicate a Deal Room tab in one click

What's improved:

  • Edits save automatically in the background
  • Deal Room tabs and the Mutual Action Plan panel now follow your brand colors and spacing
  • Browser tab shows the asset name and favicon

The result: Less time managing the room, more time closing the deal.

Playlist Selection Controls: Set the Default, Skip the Toggling​

Shared Playlists previously opened with a fixed default, leaving buyers to manually select or deselect items before engaging with the content.

Now you control exactly how your Playlist opens, and buyers get a one-click way to select or deselect everything.

What you can do:

  • Set a per-Playlist default: open with all items selected or none
  • Give buyers a one-click select-all / deselect-all control
  • Set an account-wide default in Company Settings for all new Playlists

The result: Buyers see your Playlist exactly as you intended from the first click.

Content Library: Now Up to 95% Faster to Load​

Large or shared Content Libraries load faster regardless of volume.

A fix to how the library handles access-control queries means those same libraries now open in well under a second.

What changed:

· Library load time reduced by up to 95% for large and shared libraries · Move-to-folder dialog opens faster

The result: No more waiting on your library. Whether your team has 50 demos or 5,000, the Content Library now keeps pace.
