The Slide Machine

Speak freely — the slides will follow.

The Slide Machine builds your lecture slides live, from what you actually say, while you say it. Start a lecture and talk: your speech is transcribed and our AI agent turns your spoken words into well-formatted slides in real-time, with images we source added at appropriate places as you speak. You can seed a lecture with your own outline, readings, decks or images; draw on any slide mid-lecture; generate an exit-ticket quiz from the finished deck; read and hear the lecture in another language; and edit or export the deck afterwards to PDF, YAML or Google Slides.

What we ask for, and why

Your account. An email address, a display name, and a password we store only as a hash — so we can identify you and keep your work yours.
Google sign-in. If you choose to sign in with Google, we receive your name, email address and profile picture from Google. We use them to create and identify your account, and for nothing else.
Connecting Google Drive. Exporting a deck to Google Slides or publishing a quiz as a Google Form is optional, and asks for one narrow permission: drive.file. It reaches only the files the app itself creates and the files you hand it by picking them in Google's own file picker. It cannot list, search or read the rest of your Drive.
Your microphone. While a lecture is recording, audio is transcribed into text so the slides can be built. We may also keep the recording itself; how long depends on your plan and on what still has to be done with it.

We do not sell your data, and we do not use it to train third-party AI models.
