Macabacus Launches AI Writing Assistant (AIWA) for PowerPoint and Word

April 22, 2025 – New York, NYMacabacus, the leading Microsoft 365 productivity solution for investment banking, finance and consulting teams, has announced the release of its AI Writing Assistant (AIWA), now available in Microsoft PowerPoint and Word. Purpose-built for high-stakes corporate environments, AIWA enables banking, finance and consulting professionals to draft, refine, and finalize content more efficiently—while maintaining brand voice, consistency, and compliance. 

Designed to accelerate content workflows, AIWA allows users to summarize, elaborate, rephrase, proofread, and translate content—seamlessly and securely within their existing Microsoft 365 environment. Fully integrated into the Macabacus suite, AIWA empowers professionals to improve content quality without ever leaving PowerPoint or Word. 

Key features of Macabacus AI Writing Assistant include: 

  • Summarize complex content into clear, client-ready messaging 
  • Expand ideas to create persuasive, complete narratives 
  • Rephrase language to match firm-approved tone and terminology 
  • Proofread for grammar, clarity, and readability 
  • Translate content into supported languages for global collaboration 

Unlike consumer-focused AI tools, AIWA leverages a firm’s Corporate Dictionary, Style Guide, and Tone of Voice settings, ensuring every output aligns with, and is compliant with company language and branding. 

Enterprise-Grade AI Built for Security and Compliance 

Macabacus AIWA is engineered for enterprise-grade security. Unlike public cloud-based AI tools, AIWA connects directly to an organization’s Azure AI Foundry, keeping all AI processing within the firm’s infrastructure. No prompts, outputs, or user data are transmitted or stored externally. 

Enterprise security features include: 

  • Private AI processing inside the firm’s Azure environment 
  • No external data transmission or storage 
  • End-to-end encryption for all AI interactions 
  • Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) for user permissions 
  • Admin-level configuration via the Macabacus Admin Console 

This architecture allows IT and compliance teams to maintain full control over deployment, with opt-in controls and customizable settings that meet internal policy standards. 

Purpose-Built for Investment Banking, Finance and Consulting Professionals 

AIWA is tailored to the unique needs of investment banking, finance and consulting teams—where precision, clarity, and brand compliance are paramount. Whether preparing client presentations, editing investment memos, or refining internal reports, AIWA reduces time spent on manual revisions and elevates content quality across the board. 

By embedding secure, enterprise-ready AI directly into Microsoft 365, Macabacus helps teams work faster, smarter, and more consistently—without compromising on compliance or security.
