What each one does

AI Presentation Maker

  • Interviews you about your project, audience, and desired presentation angle
  • Generates slide decks with speaker notes that tell you what to say and what to avoid
  • Validates facts and flags speculative language so you don't present made-up numbers
  • Exports finished decks to multiple formats including Markdown, HTML, PPTX, and PDF
  • Stores all presentations in an organized workspace for easy retrieval and editing

Obsidian Bases

  • Creates table, card, list, or map views of your notes based on filters you set
  • Lets you group and sort notes by any property (status, date, tags, folders)
  • Calculates fields automatically like days until deadline or price totals
  • Shows summaries like averages, sums, and counts across your filtered notes
  • Works with your existing Obsidian notes without changing how you write them

When to pick each one

Reach for AI Presentation Maker when…
