For teachers

An AI presentation maker for every deck in a teacher's week

Lessons are only part of it. Arcdeck also drafts the overview for a new unit, the update for a department meeting, the talk for a parent evening and the slides for a training session, each as headlines you check first, from a sentence or from documents you already have.

No card needed. 17 slide layouts, 48 templates, 12 languages.

The storyline Arcdeck drafts

Lesson

  1. 1Learning objectives
  2. 2Hook / real-world context
  3. 3Core concepts
  4. 4Worked example
  5. 5Practice / check for understanding
  6. 6Summary

You edit these headlines before a single slide is designed.

Try it with an example

Pick one and Arcdeck starts drafting it, or write your own.

What you get

A structure for each job

Lessons and training follow objectives, a hook, core concepts, a worked example, practice and a summary. Meetings and parent evenings can use the report storyline instead.

Built from what you have

Upload a scheme of work, a specification, meeting notes or last year's slides as PDF, Word or PowerPoint, and Arcdeck works from them.

Notes a colleague can teach from

Every slide has speaker notes with the explanation, so slides stay readable from the back of the room and a cover teacher can pick them up.

Templates for class and staffroom

Campus suits lessons and courses, Faculty suits department reviews and governors' reports, and Pastel is free with soft blocks for younger classes.

How it works

  1. Step 1

    Describe it or upload it

    A sentence is enough. Or add PDF, Word or PowerPoint files, a link, or pasted notes.

  2. Step 2

    Shape the storyline

    Arcdeck drafts the argument as headlines. Reorder, reword or cut them, then pick a template.

  3. Step 3

    Get the slides

    Every slide is written and designed, with charts and speaker notes. Present, share a link, or export.
