DeckSpeed - Cursor for slides

https://discord.gg/deMMZ2mm

@miltonheyan Sounds like an exciting platform, Milton! DeckSpeed's potential for enhancing presentations is really intriguing especially with the Zypher Agent Framework. Kudos to everyone on the successful launch!

@miltonheyan I tried your platform. After signing to the free trial it gives me Oops, something went wrong

We couldn't start the AI assistant that powers DeckSpeed. This might be because of a temporary issue with our systems. Please try again in a moment.

can you please make sure I don't get charged for the monthly fee and cancel my trial???

@supa_l Thanks Supa!!!

So happy am I!

@pritraveler you can try by yourself and then you would be surprised!

@pritraveler Great question! Right now, DeckSpeed is fully prompt-driven — there aren’t integrated drag-and-drop design tools yet. But the agent gives you fine-grained control over layout, visuals, and structure through natural conversation.

You can simply tell the agent what to change, like:

• “Make slide 3 more visual — turn the bullet points into icons.”

• “Add a pie chart comparing Q1 and Q2 revenue on the last slide.”

• “Replace the image on slide 1 with something more technical.”

Even better — you can take a screenshot of the slide, highlight the area you want to change, and upload it with your prompt. The agent will understand the visual context and apply the change accordingly!

Currently, we support PDF export, and we’re exploring PowerPoint and Google Slides export based on user demand — so feedback like yours really helps us prioritize!

Let us know if that’s something you’d use — we’re actively shaping the roadmap! 🙌

@divyansh_tiwari7 Appreciate!

@divyansh_tiwari7 Thank you 🥰

@divyansh_tiwari7 Thanks so much, really appreciate the kind words! 🙌 We're actually using DeckSpeed internally for all our own decks — it's made our process at least 10x faster. We just drop in our rough ideas — DeckSpeed makes them shine. Excited to keep improving it with feedback from the community!

@williamrobertscott Thank you, William! What sets DeckSpeed apart is that it’s not just generating a “nice-looking” static slides— it’s building an intelligent agent that truly understands and participates in the creative process. When your story changes, it adapts. When your data updates, it restructures the content automatically. You can even manage multiple versions of your narrative like in code, switching between them anytime.

More importantly, it connects with other tools: pulling in external data, generating charts, summarizing content. It’s not just a “generator” — it’s more like a real assistant.

What excites me most is what comes next: an agent that helps users shape their ideas, search data, generate visuals using cutting-edge diffusion models, create podcasts, even produce 3D models. DeckSpeed, at its core, is a “Coding Agent” — similar to Cursor — offering extremely high freedom and flexibility～～

Thank you very much!

@peng_wood Welcome to try it out and experience it for yourself!

@peng_wood Thanks bro!

@admiralrohan Totally agree bro!— I really appreciate Cursor’s product philosophy. There are too many so-called “agents” out there that claim to do everything, but end up doing nothing useful. Cursor doesn’t try to be a generalist — it focuses on delivering reliable, editable output that developers can trust and refine.

That’s exactly the mindset we’re taking with DeckSpeed: not just making slides, but building an agent that delivers consistently high-performance results, with precise control and checkpoint management — just like Cursor does.

@azhu_azhu It's very customizable — you can specify the tone and structure you want from the start. After the first draft, you can ask our Zypher Agent to make precise edits, like “make the intro on the first slide more playful,” or even upload a screenshot and highlight exactly what you want changed. The AI will handle it for you.

@ari_nakos Thanks Aris! Also, it’s super useful for founders in the Bay Area — they’re familiar with how Cursor works and place a strong emphasis on storytelling. DeckSpeed fits perfectly with that mindset.

@ari_nakos Thanks Aris! Consultants are definitely a key audience — speed and clarity are huge for them.

@aryansharma17 thanks!

@aryansharma17 That’s amazing to hear — so glad DeckSpeed is helping fuel your MCP journey! 🙌 We’re really excited about the potential of Model Context Protocols too.

Quick heads-up: we’re launching an MCP/Agent Store very soon — it’ll make installing MCP servers and tools way easier. Plus, support for A2A (Agent-to-Agent Protocol) is coming as well!

Can’t wait to see what you build — feel free to share it with us anytime!

@aryansharma17 Thanks, enjoy!🍺

@kay_arkain Good taste bro, thank you!

@kay_arkain Thank you so much, Kay! 🙏 We’re on a mission to eliminate boring PPTs for good — so hearing it described as a game changer really means a lot.

And huge shoutout to our team @c_wu and @spencer_zhao for crafting such a clean and intuitive experience — they’ve truly set the bar high. Excited to keep building from here!

@gaayathri_murugan1 Thank you, Gaayathri! Hearing that someone just asked for something like this makes us feel like we’re solving a real, timely need. And huge thanks for sharing it with your friends!

If you or they ever have feature ideas, we’re all ears. 💡

@rwanghacker Really appreciate the thoughtful and in-depth feedback — this is incredibly helpful! 🙏

1️⃣ You’re absolutely right — each slide is essentially a live, web-native page (yes, React!) which gives us a lot of flexibility in layout, interaction, and data rendering. It also allows the agent to dynamically pull in data, charts, and references — glad you noticed that!

2️⃣ About the cost — great observation, but it’s actually more affordable than it seems. We use aggressive prompt caching, so even if multiple Sonnet calls are made during composition, most of the tokens are reused. It helps us keep performance high and cost in check.

3️⃣ Regarding the 3D rocket example in our screenshots — yes! That’s powered by Three.js, which isn’t preinstalled in every project yet. Right now, new projects come with libraries like Chart.js, but you can actually ask the agent to install and use third-party libraries, including Three.js. That rocket scene is fully generated via prompt + agent scripting. We’ll be publishing some example prompts and how-tos soon!

4️⃣ As for the bug with empty slides and file state — thanks for flagging that. We’re actively working on UI fixes. In the meantime, a quick browser refresh usually resolves it, and you can also File → Save (top-left toolbar) to save your deck file and reload it later.

Thanks again for the kind words and deep dive — your feedback helps us make DeckSpeed better every day! 🚀

@harsh_dubey3 Really appreciate it, Harsh! 🙌 That idea sounds super aligned with where we’re heading. Would love to chat more and see how we can build something together. Feel free to hit me up on LinkedIn!

@yxcathy So glad to hear that — that’s exactly what we’re building for! Let us know if there’s anything we can improve or add to make it even better

@axindie Thanks Alex!!!
