The Google Solution Challenge look, on an example deck

This is a student’s CIFAR-10 coursework deck in the Google Solution Challenge theme, which is why it has 10 pages. Your deck follows the template’s 12 slides, in its order, and is written from your own repo and notes.

This is the 2026 prototype-round template, which the next edition will likely reuse: the {Build with AI} and Solution Challenge header band on every slide, plain titles on white, the Team Details cover under the banner, and the blue Thank You pill.

How it works

1Start from the button
The Google Solution Challenge template comes picked, with its slide order and its look. (Or start a deck, choose Slides and pick it under “Follow a template”.)
2Give it your material
The problem statement, your idea notes with the team details the cover asks for, and your repo or screenshots if you have them.
3Answer its questions
It asks for any cover detail your notes don’t have, and what it needs to know about the idea.
4Check it and submit the PDF
Fix a word on the page yourself or ask for changes, then download the PDF.

Questions

Is this the official Google Solution Challenge template?

It is a rebuild of the template Google Developer Groups, run by Hack2skill gives for the idea round: the same slides, in the same order, with its look. devreport is not affiliated with Google Solution Challenge or Google Developer Groups, run by Hack2skill, and the result is a PDF, not the template file itself.

Can I submit the devreport PDF?

The round asks for the template filled in as a deck, with links to a public GitHub repo, a 3-minute demo video and the working MVP. If your round wants the template file itself, copy the text, diagrams and charts into it. Check the organiser’s rules when in doubt.

We only have an idea, no code yet. Does it still work?

Yes. A repo is optional. Upload the problem statement, your notes on the idea and any data or screenshots, and it writes the slides from those. It won’t invent research, users or results you don’t give it.

Can I fix things myself before submitting?

Yes. Click any text on a slide to change it, move or resize charts and pictures, or ask for a change in plain words. Hand edits are free.

How long does it take?

Usually three to five minutes, a little longer for a big repo, plus the time you take to answer its questions.

What does it cost?

New accounts get 15 free credits. A deck costs 10 credits and each change you ask for afterwards costs 1; editing text on the page yourself and switching themes are free. A build that fails gives its credits back.
