Slidebook
What Slidebook is
Slidebook is an AI presentation generator built on an open-source React library for structured, interactive decks. A topic and context can be turned into a plan and slides with speaker notes, visuals, timelines, charts, and tables. Users can edit content, styles, animations, layouts, and custom logic, or author slides as React, JSX, or TSX components with Tailwind and motion. Slides can embed React components, live demos, data visualizations, and interactive widgets. Presentations export to PPTX and PDF and include brand controls. Realtime collaboration is available through an optional server that synchronizes slides, supports multi-device control, QR sharing, and host view. Slidebook runs on the web or through self-hosting with Docker, Fly.io, or a VPS; the core framework is MIT-licensed. Self-hosting documentation notes that serverless hosts such as Vercel need a separate server for realtime WebSockets. A free plan and trial are available. Listed paid plans are Assist at $8 a month, Pro at $15 a month, and Premium at $30 a month.
