Deck to video: turn any slide deck into a branded marketing video
Upload a deck file, paste a direct deck link, or drop in the speaker notes. ngram reads the slide order, the on-slide copy, and the notes, then builds a scene-by-scene video with voiceover, captions, and your brand styling.

How it works
Four steps from a sitting deck to a watchable video.
No slideshow export, no screen recording of you clicking through slides, no separate voiceover session. Drop the deck, accept the storyboard, ship a branded video the audience will actually watch.
Drop the deck in
A PPTX up to 100 MB, a direct deck link, or just the speaker notes. ngram pulls slide order, on-slide text, charts, and notes. No manual outline required.
ngram plans the scenes
Each slide becomes a scene. Titles become hooks, bullets get rewritten into spoken narration, and screenshots and charts get treated as B-roll. Speaker notes drive the talk track.
Review the storyboard
Walk the full scene-by-scene plan before anything renders. Reorder slides, merge two into one scene, swap the voice, or rewrite a line, all in plain language and no timeline.
Export the video
Render in 16:9, 1:1, or 9:16 as MP4, GIF, or WebM with burned-in captions and brand styling. Publish to LinkedIn or YouTube, or embed it back in the deck.
Output controls
Deck-aware defaults, with real controls when a slide needs them.
One scene per slide, retimed
Every slide becomes its own scene, with timing tuned to how much copy it carries. Merge a title-and-agenda pair into one scene, or split a dense slide into two, without touching the source deck.
Notes become the narration
Written speaker notes are used as the script per scene. When a slide has thin or empty notes, the agent drafts narration from the heading and bullets and lets you rewrite it in chat before voiceover.
Stat slides get motion
KPI numbers, charts, and pricing tables get animated callouts and counters instead of a flat slide screenshot. Bullets reveal in step with the narration rather than appearing all at once.
Brand Kit on every scene
Logo, colors, fonts, intro and outro cards, and motion style applied automatically. The video reads as an extension of the deck, not a new look pasted over old slides.
Captions tied to each slide
Auto-generated, brand-styled, and anchored to the narration of each scene. Edit a line in the script and the matching caption updates without forcing a full re-render.
Reframed for each channel
One deck, three aspect ratios in a single pass. 16:9 for a website embed or YouTube, 1:1 for the LinkedIn feed, 9:16 for a Reels or Shorts teaser, with smart reframing per format.
Localize the deck-video
Translate the script and captions, regenerate the voiceover in the target language, and re-render from the same source deck. Useful when a board deck or launch deck ships across regions.
Built for team workflows
Source decks stay in your workspace, and you can delete your account and data from Settings. Talk to sales about security, access controls, and data handling for your team.
The rest of ngram
The deck-to-video pipeline is one node. The rest of the product picks up where the slides end.
Slide Animator
The engine behind deck to video. Each slide is parsed into a scene blueprint with its on-slide copy, notes, charts, and visual hints, then animated into a scene rather than screenshotted.
Learn moreScript Generation
Turns the deck's notes and bullets into a full spoken talk track. When a slide lacks notes, the agent drafts a narration line from the heading and bullets and lets you rewrite it in chat.
Learn moreAI Voiceover
Narrates every slide-scene with a brand voice from ElevenLabs or MiniMax. Slow the pace on a dense data slide, lift it on the closing CTA, all by describing the change in plain language.
Learn moreCaptions
Auto-burns captions per scene, styled to your brand kit. It matters here because most deck-derived videos get watched on LinkedIn and Slack with the sound off.
Learn moreBrand Kit
Applies the logo, colors, fonts, intro, outro, and motion style to every slide-scene, so the same board deck stays on-brand even when a dozen people export their own cut of it.
Learn moreMulti-format Export
Renders one deck into a 16:9 website embed, a 1:1 LinkedIn cut, and a 9:16 teaser in a single pass, with smart reframing so no slide gets cropped past its key content.

Different source, same scene planner.
Deck to video is one of many converters that share the same scene planner, brand kit, voiceover stack, and export pipeline. Starting from a different format? There's a direct path for it.
The closest sibling. If your deck is specifically a PowerPoint file, the PPT-to-video path covers PPTX and legacy PPT parsing in detail.
Open converterDecks often get shared as flattened PDFs. The PDF route rides the same scene planner and reads the exported slides page by page.
Open converterIf the deck still lives in Google Slides, convert it directly instead of exporting to PPTX first.

Editing the deck-video further
Once the first cut is back from the slides
Video Editor
Drop the deck-video onto a real timeline to trim a slow scene, reorder two slide-scenes, or splice a B-roll clip between them after the agent's first cut.
Open toolAdd Subtitles to Video
If a deck-derived cut lands without captions, burn styled subtitles per slide-scene so feed and Shorts viewers can follow the deck with the sound off.
Open toolVideo Cutter
Pull the strongest 30-second scene out of the full deck-video, handy when sales wants a teaser cut from the same source deck.
Open toolAdd Music to Video
Lay a tasteful bed under the deck narration so the slide-by-slide voiceover stays up front and the launch cut feels produced.
Open toolGenerating slide content from scratch
If the deck itself has gaps
AI Video Generator
Skip the deck entirely when there isn't one yet. Describe the launch or explainer in chat and let ngram plan slide-style scenes from the prompt.
Open toolAI Avatar Video Generator
Pair the deck narration with a synthetic presenter who walks through each slide-scene on camera, useful for a sales or onboarding deck.
Open toolAI Image Generator
Fill a slide that reads 'team photo here' or 'product shot TBD' with an on-brand generated image so the scene isn't a blank placeholder.
Open toolText to Speech Video
Have the talk track but no deck file? Generate a narrated video from the notes and use it as the base layer for the slide visuals.
Open toolPolishing the source deck
Sharpen the deck before you convert it
Video Script Generator
Rewrite the speaker notes in a different tone (investor vs. customer vs. internal) before you re-convert the same deck for a new audience.
Open toolAI Voice Generator
Audition voices against the deck narration, then lock the one that fits the brand and reuse it on next quarter's board deck.
Open toolVideo Translator
Once the English deck-video is out, translate the script and captions and regenerate the voiceover for every locale the deck ships to.
Open toolAuto Subtitle Generator
If you already recorded yourself walking the deck, generate subtitles for that take instead of re-rendering the whole thing from the slides.
