Requirements & Trade-offs

🔑
API Keys Required
Needs OpenAI API key and Google Custom Search credentials (GCS_DEVELOPER_KEY, GCS_CX). Not a free standalone tool.
⚙️
Heavy Installation
Local Python environment setup with multiple dependencies and manual .env configuration required.
🪙
High Token Usage
GPT-3.5 Turbo generation for full presentations consumes significant API tokens per run.

Alternatives to Consider

Gamma
Cloud-based, no setup, designer templates — but subscription required
→
Beautiful.ai
Polished smart templates, collaboration — but paid SaaS with no local control
→
python-pptx (direct)
Full programmatic control, no AI — but requires building all logic yourself
