[Sign up with Google](https://app.plusdocs.com/preinstall?idp=Google)[ Sign up with Microsoft](https://app.plusdocs.com/preinstall?idp=Microsoft) - 6 tools Create, edit, upload, and track decks - Multi-turn Follow-ups edit the deck in place - PPTX Native PowerPoint, plus PDF and thumbnail Tools ## Six tools for your agent - ### Quick deck from a prompt create\_presentation: fast, template-based generation: a prompt, a slide count, and a language in — a finished, native PowerPoint out. - ### Presentation Agent create\_presentation\_with\_agent: the full Presentation Agent plans the story, writes the content, and designs every slide — from a prompt or from a deck you already have. - ### Keep refining a deck continue\_presentation\_agent\_session: send a follow-up change — “shorten slide 3, add a next-steps slide” — and the agent edits the same deck in place, remembering the conversation so far. - ### Check on a run get\_presentation\_agent\_session: agent runs take a few minutes. Your agent checks on a run by session ID, and each call waits for the result — no polling loops to write. - ### Find your decks list\_files: browse the PowerPoints in your Plus AI workspace, search by name, and grab the file ID of the deck you want the agent to edit. - ### Upload a deck upload\_file: put a .pptx in your workspace straight from the chat. Attach it in ChatGPT, or let Claude Code, Codex, or Cursor send it from disk. The Presentation Agent ## An agent your agent can keep coming back to Most AI slide tools are one-shot: prompt in, deck out, done. The Presentation Agent works the way real decks get made — in passes. Upload a PowerPoint, let the agent revise it, then keep sending changes to the same session. - ### Start from a prompt or a deck Generate from scratch, or point the agent at a deck from your workspace and it revises, extends, restyles, or translates it — layout and branding preserved. Your original file is never changed. - ### Iterate across turns Not quite right? Ask again. Follow-up changes continue the same session — tighten the story, swap the branding, translate it for another region — and the agent updates the deck in place. - ### Async and durable Long runs don't block the conversation. Every run returns a session ID your agent can check now or later, so multi-step workflows never lose a deck in progress. How it works ## From a prompt to a polished deck, and back again 1. 1 ### Bring your deck (optional) Start fresh, or have your agent find or upload a deck you already have. 2. 2 ### Ask the Presentation Agent Describe the deck you want, or point the agent at one to edit. Long runs are tracked for you until the deck is ready. 3. 3 ### Refine in place Send follow-up changes and the agent updates the same deck in place. ## Try the best MCP for presentations - ![Make real presentations example](https://plusai.com/_astro/native-pptx.DJl_Gpuh_1NmCMq.webp) ### Make real presentations Generate professionally-designed, formatted slides, so you can actually use them at work. - ![Use advanced slide elements example](https://plusai.com/_astro/advanced-slides.DDJAyMuh_Z1AgRe6.webp) ### Use advanced slide elements Our Open XML renderer supports complex slide types, charts, and images. - ![Use custom templates example](https://plusai.com/_astro/custom-templates.CYCMsUus_Z1sOsTS.webp) ### Use custom templates Use one of our templates or use your own presentation templates.

Other apps just let you customize the colors and font, but that doesn't work for our sales team. Lisa Morrison - > Great API to complement the existing Plus AI product. After we set up our Plus AI subscription in PowerPoint, our IT team used the API to create some custom workflows based on customer triggers. Alex Johnson - > This is the best PowerPoint API! Highly recommend if you are trying to create presentations using AI and want the slides to come out looking like a human made them. Much faster than ChatGPT or Claude as well. Avik Lee ## FAQs ### What is the Plus AI MCP server? The Plus AI Model Context Protocol (MCP) server allows AI agents and LLMs to interact with Plus AI using natural language commands. This makes it easier for end-users and developers to access Plus AI features without setting up a complex integration, and it makes it easier for third-party AI agents to create presentations using Plus AI. ### What tools does the MCP server expose? Six tools: - `create_presentation` — fast, template-based generation from a prompt, a slide count, and a language. - `create_presentation_with_agent` — the full Presentation Agent, which plans, writes, and designs the deck. It can start from scratch or from an existing deck, and returns native PPTX, PDF, and thumbnail files. - `continue_presentation_agent_session` — send a follow-up change to a deck the agent made, edited in place. - `get_presentation_agent_session` — wait for a long-running agent session and fetch its results by session ID. - `list_files` — find PowerPoints in your Plus AI workspace and their file IDs. - `upload_file` — add a .pptx to your workspace so the agent can edit it. ### Can the agent work on an existing presentation? Yes. Have your agent add the deck with `upload_file` (or find one already in your workspace with `list_files`), then pass its file ID as `pptx_file_id` to `create_presentation_with_agent`. The agent revises, extends, restyles, or translates that deck instead of starting fresh, and your original is never changed. To keep going, use `continue_presentation_agent_session` — each follow-up edits the same deck in place. ChatGPT can upload decks you attach to the chat. Claude.ai can't pass attachments to tools, so add the deck in the Plus AI web app first. You can also use the [Plus AI API](https://plusai.com/features/presentation-agent-api). ### How is Plus AI different from other AI presentation tools? Unlike other AI presentation providers, Plus AI creates native PowerPoint slides. This means each of the slides is formatted and editable like a standard presentation slide, making it easier to integrate Plus AI presentations into existing workflows. ### How does security work for Plus AI? We follow enterprise-grade security practices and have achieved SOC 2 Type II compliance. You can read more about our security policies and procedures on our [security page](https://plusai.com/security). ### How do I set up the Plus AI MCP server? Setting up the Plus AI MCP server is quick and easy. Just add the MCP URL ([https://mcp.plusai.com/](https://mcp.plusai.com/)) into your app, and sign in with your Plus AI account via OAuth. For more detailed instructions, you can follow the [step-by-step MCP server guide](https://guide.plusai.com/ai-for-presentations/mcp-server) in our guide page. ### Which plans include the MCP server? The MCP server uses your Plus AI account, so your organization needs a Pro, Team, or Max plan. Agent runs and follow-up changes use your AI credits. See [pricing](https://plusai.com/pricing) for details. ### What can I do with the Plus AI MCP? The Plus AI MCP makes it easy to add presentations to other AI workflows. Here are some examples: - Add native PowerPoint generation to ChatGPT or Claude - Use an AI tool for deep research and feed that content to Plus AI to create presentations - Hand an existing deck to the Presentation Agent and iterate on it across turns — refine the story, re-brand it, or translate it with follow-up messages - Integrate presentation creation capabilities into other AI agents and apps - Convert notes, documents, and transcripts into presentations as part of a larger AI workflow ## Stop wasting your time on slides.
