Presenton
Presenton is an open-source AI presentation generator and API designed as an alternative to commercial tools like Gamma, Beautiful AI, and Decktopus. It enables users to generate slide decks programmatically or through AI-driven content creation, with full access to the underlying source code for customization and self-hosting. The project provides an API that developers can integrate into their own applications to automate presentation creation from structured data or natural language prompts. Because it is open source, organizations can deploy it on their own infrastructure, retaining control over data and avoiding subscription fees. While specific feature details are limited in available metadata, the project positions itself as a flexible, self-hosted solution for teams seeking AI-assisted presentation workflows without proprietary constraints.
