Why not just have Claude Code write a .pptx directly?

It can emit a raw file, but the result is unstyled and off-brand. heydecks renders a designed, on-brand deck and a real, editable PPTX from the same content Claude Code writes.

Can Claude Code make PowerPoint files?

Yes, through heydecks. Claude Code writes the deck and heydecks exports a native PPTX along with a live link and a PDF, all from one request. Exports are always free.

How do I add heydecks to Claude Code?

Run a single CLI command to add the heydecks MCP server with your token. The deck tools are available in your next session.

Does building decks with Claude Code cost credits?

Yes. A deck costs 100 credits whether you build it over MCP, the REST API, or in the dashboard. AI images and AI edits cost extra; reading and PDF and PPTX exports are always free.

Will the deck match my brand?

Yes. Point heydecks at your website once and the Brand Kernel applies your colors, type, and logo to every slide Claude Code builds.

Can I build decks from files in my repo?

Yes. Point Claude Code at a README, a spec, or a docs folder and it turns the content into slides, then heydecks renders and exports them.

Is heydecks free to start?

Yes. You can start free with no card and a one-time grant of credits. The MCP server is available on every plan.

Why build decks with heydecks.

Never leave the terminal

Build a real deck without opening a browser or a slide editor. Claude Code drives heydecks from the same place you write code.

On-brand every time

Extract your brand from your site once. Every deck Claude Code builds honors your colors, type, and logo with no restyling.

Three formats, one call

A live link for sharing, a PDF for the data room, and a native PPTX for anyone who wants to edit the slides directly.

Built over MCP

Claude Code drives the whole flow over MCP, drafting and refining the deck without you touching a slide.

Claude Code alone

Claude Code can write slide text in your terminal, but you still paste it into PowerPoint, fix the layout, and re-apply your brand by hand every time.

Claude Code with heydecks

Claude Code calls heydecks and hands back a finished, on-brand deck with a link, a PDF, and a PPTX. No copy and paste, no reformatting.

Questions about Claude Code

Yes. Claude Code writes the slides and calls heydecks over MCP, which renders the deck and exports a native PPTX and a PDF, so you never open a browser or a slide editor.
