What the API Playground is

Iterate

Refine prompts, slide instructions, and export settings until the generated presentations match your expectations.

Verify

Ensure content maps consistently to slide layouts and presentations render reliably before production use.

Copy

Copy the exact playground configuration for the current iteration as JavaScript, Python, or cURL and use it directly in production.

Standard

Predictable

In Standard Mode, Presenton.

Generates a template from your reference presentation and layout definitions

Smart

Creative

In Smart Mode, you upload a PPTX as design reference.

Uses AI to learn the design system (visual language, spacing, typography, component patterns)

WORKFLOW

How it works

Create a reusable template from your presentation in just a few minutes.

Stage 01

CHOOSE A MODE

Standard for strict layouts, Smart for dynamic design

Stage 02

ADD INPUT

Prompt / paste content / upload files

Stage 03

TUNE OUTPUT

Tone, verbosity, language, image type, export format

Stage 04

GENERATE/ COPY CODE

See results instantly in the playground

Backend, workflow tool, or SDK project

Presentation Content

Drop in a prompt or paste raw content.

Uses AI to learn the design system (visual language, spacing, typography, component patterns)

you already know exactly what each slide should contain

you want deterministic structure for certain slides (executive summary, KPIs, etc)

you want to mix “AI-generated” and “user-specified” slides in one deck

Production-Ready

Built for real decks, not demos

AI-driven, scalable data visualization presentations delivering consistent, branded insights at enterprise scale

Design-aware generation

Generate slides that respect layout rules and design consistency—built for professional decks and reporting.

File-to-presentation

Upload PDFs, documents, spreadsheets, and text files as source material. Presenton extracts structure and turns it into slides.

Examples included

Start from ready-made examples (marketing reports, research decks, sales modifications) and learn the best input patterns quickly.

Export control

Choose export format and generation settings to match your workflow—fast experimentation without code changes.

Code you can copy

Every successful run is instantly reproducible via API/SDK code so your prototype can become production integration.

Frequently asked
questions

Automate slide generation for reports, pitch decks, briefs, and dashboards. Use text prompts, Markdown, or structured JSON to create branded decks at scale and export to PPTX or PDF.

Use Bearer authentication with an API key. Keep keys secret and scoped. Rotate keys regularly and prefer server‑side calls for sensitive operations.

Call the REST API directly from your services, trigger flows from workflow tools (e.g., Zapier, n8n), or schedule batch jobs. Many teams combine webhooks with background workers for reliable, async processing.

Yes. Send your Markdown to the markdown endpoint to render slides with headings, lists, images, and code blocks mapped to appropriate layouts.

Use JSON to precisely control structure, content, and styling, or to update existing decks programmatically. This is best for deterministic results and repeatable workflows.

Reference your approved templates or themes in requests. You can lock fonts, colors, and layouts so every generated deck is on‑brand by default.

Both. Small requests can be synchronous; large jobs are typically asynchronous. Poll with a job ID or receive a webhook callback when ready to download outputs.

Rate limits protect stability. Use retries with exponential backoff, idempotency keys for safe retries, and queue long‑running jobs. Batch requests during off‑peak hours when possible.
