1/7When to use it
Reach for Explain it simply when you want to teach your audience something they can use straight away and make a post people save and come back to. Its structure is reference: the essentials of a subject, to come back to. Give Postora your topic and it keeps the shape, writing every slide about your subject in your voice.
