Tutorials, comparisons, and engineering deep-dives on slide generation.
Working code side-by-side: 60-line python-pptx script vs 5-line SlideForge API call. Real benchmarks, $0.03/slide cost, and when each approach wins for batch, one-off, and SaaS use cases.
We tested 8 presentation-generation APIs — python-pptx (free, steep learning curve) through Aspose ($4K/yr enterprise). Pricing, output quality, and which fits your stack.
Upload a PDF, get an editable .pptx with real text boxes and shapes. Vector extraction (not OCR) from PowerPoint, Keynote, Google Slides, Canva. $0.01/page.
Translate .pptx into German, French, Spanish (8 languages) without breaking fonts, colors, or layout. $0.02/slide. Concise mode for tight text boxes.
Build PowerPoint slides from JSON specs using CSS Flexbox layout and 24 composable components. Deterministic rendering in <1s. Like React for slides.
Match your company's exact brand identity. Three ways to create themes: JSON API, upload a .pptx template, or let an AI agent extract colors and fonts.
One API call to generate editable .pptx from your app's data. Working code for Python, Node.js, React. Per-customer branding. $0.03/slide.
SlideForge v3 ships composition: nest Metric inside SplitView, drop 3 StatCards into Card, compose exec dashboards from primitives. One shape, depth-2 cap, structured errors. Instead of 500 fixed templates.
