AI Just Wrote My Keynote — Then I Made It Shine

AI writes the draft. You make it magic. New Keynote power in Alter — and what we’re doing this summer. 🌞

The guide to use this feature is already available!

Hey everyone,

Remember spending hours turning a great idea into a Keynote deck?
Yeah… we’re done with that.

Today, we’re launching a new way to build presentations — fast, flexible, and fully in your control.

Introducing: AI-Powered Keynote Drafts in Alter

Drop any content — a blog post, research doc, even a long tweet — into Alter, and in minutes, get a real Keynote presentation with:

Slide structure & messaging
Speaker notes (yes, already written)
Charts & data visuals (editable, of course)
Full access to Keynote’s pro tools

No more blank slides. No more copy-pasting. Just momentum.

Why This Isn’t Just Another AI Slideshow

We tested a lot of “one-click presentation” tools. Most fail because they try to do everything — and end up locking you into bad design, broken charts, or rigid layouts.

So we built something different:

AI handles the draft — structure, content, first-pass visuals
You handle the magic — polish, tone, storytelling, design

It’s like having a junior co-pilot who reads the material, takes notes, and builds the outline… then hands you the wheel to make it yours.

Perfect for:

LinkedIn posts that actually stand out
Investor updates with clean, clear data
Team syncs where you want to show, not explain
Founders who hate wasting time on slides

Try It Now

Open Alter
Paste any article or doc
Say: “Make a Keynote presentation”
Boom — your draft opens in Keynote, ready to edit

We’re using Claude Sonnet 4 under the hood — it’s been our most reliable model for structured, accurate slide generation. It’s slow but worth it.

And because it’s real Keynote, you can:

Swap chart style in one click
Tweak colors, fonts, animations
Add tables, images, branding — no limits

This isn’t about replacing creativity.
It’s about replacing busywork.

P.S. Heads up: the Alter team is taking August off for rest and recharge 🌞🏖️
We’ll still ship critical fixes, but major updates pause until September, when we come back stronger, sharper, and full of new ideas.

Enjoy the summer — we’ll see you in the fall with something special.
