You can create Deal Rooms and draft deal-specific content directly from a conversation in your AI tool — everything you create lands in Spekit, scoped to the right deal, and ready to send. This article covers three things: creating a Deal Room, creating content inside one, and what to do when you need to add content that already exists in your knowledge base.
Before you start, set up the connector. See Spekit MCP Overview & Setup.
A note on confirmation: write actions ask you to confirm before they run. Your AI tool shows you what it's about to create, and you approve it. Review each draft before you confirm.
1. Create a Deal Room
A Deal Room sits under a company, so make sure the company exists first.
- If the company doesn't exist yet, ask your AI tool to create it. Example: "Create a company called Acme."
- Ask your AI tool to create a Deal Room under that company.
- Review, then confirm. The Deal Room is created in Spekit.
Example prompt:
"Create a deal room under Acme."
⚠️ Two things to know:
- The connector cannot turn on external sharing. A Deal Room created via MCP is not yet viewable by a buyer — you need to enable external access manually in Spekit after it's created. See "How to Create a Deal Room" for that step.
- Deal Rooms are create-only through the connector. Once created, they cannot be renamed or edited via MCP — go into Spekit directly for that.
2. Create content inside a Deal Room
Once a Deal Room exists, you can have your AI tool draft new content directly inside it — scoped to that specific deal and company context.
- Ask your AI tool to create the content you want, naming the Deal Room it belongs in.
- Review each piece it drafts.
- Confirm. Each piece is created inside the Deal Room, ready for you to review and send.
Example prompt:
"In the Acme deal room, create a mutual action plan and a one-pager for their VP of IT."
Important limitation: you can only create new or edit content inside a Deal Room through MCP — you cannot attach an existing Spek from your knowledge base as-is. Your AI tool can draft a fresh version based on it (for example, "use our approved security one-pager as a starting point"), but the original must be added via alternate methods to a deal room. If you need the exact existing asset in the room rather than a new draft, see Section 4 below.
Building several pieces at once: you can ask for a full content set in one request, and your AI tool will read the approved content it needs and draft each piece in turn. Review the whole set before confirming.
Example prompt:
"In the Acme deal room, build a launch set: a value-prop overview, an objection-handling one-pager, and an FAQ. Use our approved messaging in Spekit."
3. Turning content into slides: the Spek → Present Mode workflow
- Upload a deck you want to convert or Draft your deck through your AI tool, scoped to the Deal Room, the same way as any other piece of content (see Section 2). For example, ask for an executive summary or a mutual action plan.
- Your AI tool pushes it into Spekit as a Spek — a structured, editable piece of content, not a static file.
- Open that Spek in Spekit and use Present Mode to instantly transform it into a professional, branded deck. This is a Spekit feature, not something MCP does directly — MCP's job is to get the structured content into Spekit; Present Mode is what turns it into slides.
In short: MCP creates the Spek, Spekit's Present Mode turns the Spek into slides. You're not asking your AI tool to generate a PowerPoint file — you're asking it to draft the content, and letting Spekit handle the slide formatting and branding on top of that.
This matters because it means the content stays live and editable as a Spek even after it's been presented as a deck — if something changes on the deal, you update the Spek once, rather than hunting down a static slide file to fix.
4. Finding existing content to add to a Deal Room
This isn't available through MCP yet. Your AI tool cannot currently search your Spekit knowledge base and pull an existing Spek or file into a Deal Room as-is — MCP today is create-only for Deal Room content (see the limitation in Section 2).
The workaround: open the Spekit Chrome Extension, find the existing content you want (search, or browse the relevant Topic), and add it to the Deal Room from there directly. See "How to Add Content to a Deal Room."
If you only need something similar to an existing asset rather than the asset itself, you can skip the extension and just ask your AI tool to draft a new version based on it — that part does work through MCP today (see Section 2).
