Kivo - smarter document management? Interested in hearing your thoughts

Came across this YC startup recently and was wondering if you guys had an opinion, specifically whether or not it could potentially become a popular option for bankers to comment and turn decks more effectively.

Here's the link:

And an associated TechCrunch article:

It appears to be web-based, and doesn't seem to have much of a PPT integration. I feel like SaaS platforms haven't gotten popular in financial services yet (not sure why, but everything we do is offline, even database things that could easily be done over a SaaS CRM like SalesForce). And I know that TC discusses the PPT integration but I took a look at the beta and couldn't figure it out. Maybe I'm just intellectually challenged - please let me know if you happen to find it.

Anyway, thought it was a cool way to avoid creating presentations and 'saving up' until we have M&A_v103 and M&A_vCur and we don't know which is newer.
