Chat slides are hard to use

Text, not slides

Ask a chatbot for a presentation and you often get an outline to copy into slides yourself, one box at a time.

Facts from nowhere

Slides written from memory can be wrong. A class or client deck needs to come from the lecture, paper or report you trust.

Lost after the chat

The deck you made lives in one conversation. Next week you cannot find it, update it or reuse it for a new talk.

From chat to finished deck

Slides from your sources
