Choose an option and complete the import

After selecting your file, you can choose what you want to do with it.For PPT, PDF, and image files, there will be 3 options:
  • Import and generate slides with AI
  • Generate interactive slides
  • Import slides
For document files, the only option is Generate interactive slides. Word documents (.doc and .docx) count as document files, so you can upload a Word file of questions and answers directly — there’s no need to convert it to PDF first.Word documents and images use the same upload limit as PowerPoint and PDF files, up to 50 MB per file. If a file is over the limit or in an unsupported format, the upload shows an error.Start stays unavailable until your file has finished uploading and you have chosen an option. After selecting an option, click Start to complete the import. If you pick Import and generate slides with AI or Generate interactive slides, the AI will read the file and create slides based on its contents.
Already imported the file with Import slides? Open that presentation, click Import in the editor, upload the same file again and choose Generate interactive slides. The AI slides are added to the open presentation without importing your original slides a second time.
