Generate slides from text

Your words are treated as instructions, not decoration

Text typed into the box is read as the brief itself. Names, figures, product terms and the order you put them in are carried through to the planning step and handed to the writer as the substance each slide must convey. The planner is told explicitly that thin planning produces thin slides, so the more specific your paste, the less generic invention you get back.

Paragraphs do not map one to one to slides

A 900 word brief does not become nine slides of 100 words. The planner reads the whole thing, decides how many ideas are actually in it, and distributes them across the slide count you asked for. Two short paragraphs about the same idea merge. One dense paragraph carrying three claims splits. The unit is the idea, not the paragraph break.

Numbers are kept, and not invented

Figures in your text are picked up and can be promoted to a pull quote on the slide, a large value with a short label beneath it. The rule the planner works under is blunt: never invent numbers, and return an empty list if there are no sourced figures. So a brief with real percentages gets stat callouts and a brief without them does not get fabricated ones.

Structure in your text is respected

If your paste already looks like an outline, with numbered points or lines beginning Slide 1, Slide 2, the planner follows it rather than reorganising. The prompt box placeholder shows exactly that shape as an accepted input. If your paste is unstructured prose, the planner imposes a narrative order instead, which is the right behaviour for a memo and the wrong one for a plan you already agreed.

What gets dropped

Anything that is scaffolding rather than content. Salutations, sign offs, meeting logistics, disclaimers and the sentence explaining what the document is. Slides carry claims, and a claim needs to survive being read in six seconds from the back of a room, so hedged multi clause sentences come back shorter than you wrote them.

How it works, in three steps

1. Step 1

   Paste the text

   The counter under the box shows how much of the 8,000 characters you have used.

2. Step 2

   Say what it is for

   Add one line naming the audience and the decision you want from them. It changes the tone more than any setting does.

3. Step 3

   Set the slide count

   The planner is told to hit your number exactly and only flex by one if the narrative demands it, so pick deliberately.

Limits worth knowing

• 8,000 characters is the ceiling. Longer source material belongs in an attached file, which is a Starter feature.
• The box needs at least 8 characters before Generate will fire.
• Formatting is not read. Bold, headings and tables pasted from a word processor arrive as plain text.
• Slide count is capped at 6 on the free plan and 20 on paid plans.
