Create a presentation in Presenton Cloud or a self-hosted open-source instance.
Use this guide to choose the right creation path, confirm the required inputs, and move from a prompt or file to a generated presentation.
Presenton has two user flows: Cloud for the hosted app, and Open-source for a self-hosted instance. The screens are similar, but Cloud also includes dashboard actions for importing PPTX files and using the API Playground.
Type the instruction for the deck in the prompt area. Add optional source files in the attachments area when the presentation should be grounded in documents, spreadsheets, images, PDFs, or text files.
Use the available theme or generation settings controls in your instance before creating the deck. The exact options depend on how the open-source instance is configured.
