Notes to slides

Rough notes go in.
A structured deck comes out.

The hardest part of a deck is not typing it. It is deciding what belongs on which slide, what the section breaks are, and what the opening and closing frame should be. Notes to slides does all three before you have finished your first cup of tea.
A worked example

One set of notes.Seven finished slides.

Below is a real-shaped set of notes on the left - the kind you would type into your phone the day before a council presentation. On the right is what Makelfy structures out of it.

Your notes (unstructured)
  • -intro - climate action for our city
  • -3 wins we can hit this quarter
  • -bike lanes on main road (data from transport dept)
  • -canopy planting - 12 wards, 4000 saplings
  • -e-waste pickup sunday mornings
  • -cost breakdown per program
  • -ask - approve pilot in ward 7 first

What the model reads for

Structure is inferred, not asked for.

You never fill out a form saying "this is my intro slide, this is my body, this is my close." Makelfy reads your notes and infers the shape.

The opening

A framing sentence is pulled out and turned into a stage-setting slide - what this deck is about and why the audience should care.

Section breaks

Clusters of related bullets become sections. Numbered lists in your notes ("3 things", "5 steps") are honoured as slide beats.

The strongest point

A single line that carries the argument is promoted - either as the title of a body slide or as the anchor of the closing slide.

The ask

If your notes end on a request, decision or call-to-action, that becomes the deck's close and the deck is paced backward from it.
