Avoid reading the slide
Talking points should add the reasoning, examples, and emphasis that are intentionally absent from the visual page.

This page introduces the planned workflow and its quality checks. The dedicated tool is not live yet, so no upload, conversion, merge, or export capability is implied.
01
Provide the deck
02
Find the speaking intent
03
Review concise prompts
Keep each point scannable
Use short prompts that a presenter can recover at a glance instead of dense paragraphs that demand memorization.
Strengthen transitions
Connect the conclusion of one slide to the question answered by the next so the talk feels continuous.
A presentation usually contains less text than the speaker needs. Converting a deck to talking points means recovering the hidden layer: why a chart matters, which example makes an abstract claim concrete, where to pause, and how the next slide follows. That layer should support delivery without turning into a word-for-word script.
The planned EditablePPT workflow will analyze slide order and visible content, then propose compact prompts grouped by slide. It will distinguish explanations from transitions and optional examples. File analysis is not live on this page yet, so the page describes the intended workflow rather than offering an upload control.
How the workflow is designed
- 1
Provide the deck
Provide the source material and enough context to preserve the intent of the original presentation.
- 2
Find the speaking intent
Review the proposed structure and resolve missing, duplicated, or ambiguous content before producing a result.
- 3
Review concise prompts
Inspect the output for accuracy, pacing, and editability before using it in a real presentation.

Presentation to talking points FAQ
How long should talking points be for each slide?
A useful starting point is three to five brief prompts per slide. The right amount depends on speaking time, audience knowledge, and whether the slide is evidence, explanation, or transition.
Are talking points the same as speaker notes?
Talking points are usually shorter and optimized for quick recall. Speaker notes may include full citations, exact wording, stage directions, or backup details.
