PPT Agent
What PPT Agent is
PPT Agent is a free, MIT-licensed tool that turns text or a URL into animated presentation slides. It accepts URLs, Markdown, bullet points, and freeform paragraphs, and requires no signup or watermark. Eighteen curated themes are included, and themes can be changed without regenerating slides. Its editor supports drag-to-reorder, custom-prompt regeneration for individual slides, and undo. Presenter mode provides speaker notes, a timer, and previews of the current and next slides. Presentations can be exported as self-contained HTML or PDF; the HTML contains inline CSS and JavaScript, has no dependencies, and works offline. Claude is the default AI provider, with OpenAI-compatible options including OpenRouter, Azure OpenAI, Together AI, and compatible local endpoints. The project documents REST endpoints for generation, URL import, slide regeneration, export, styles, history, and health checks. Docker Compose and manual self-hosting are documented, using your own API key. Shared deployments limit requests to 10 per minute per IP.
