Gixo Lumen

Build a Reviewable Deck You Can Hand Off

Turn notes, briefs, articles, and source files into a structured first pass, then edit, review sources, present, and export from one workspace.

The Lumen editor open on a generated client strategy deck: the slide rail on the left, a slide with a solar-farm picture and a ranked finding, and the theme, edit and present controls above
Deck creation, editing, theme changes, and present mode stay in one flow. That is the difference between making slides and actually shipping a deck.
Open preview

26 slide layouts, 34 active themes, and a full editor. Building a deck by hand is unlimited on every plan and uses no generation capacity, and the PPTX export carries no paywall - but creating one still needs an active Gixo Lumen trial or plan, the same access that generation needs.

Lumen's no-card 14-day trial includes AI generation and clean hybrid export. Downloads are not gated: a deck you generated stays yours to review, present, and export as PPTX, PDF, HTML, or slide images, unwatermarked, whether the trial is running, paid, or long over. Paid Lumen continues AI generation and AI editing after the trial. Public-link sharing is available during active trial or plan access; sharing with people, comments and Brand Kit controls require Professional or above, and saved brand themes require Business or above. Capacity and team controls depend on the selected tier.

What you actually get What still needs human review before handoff? A strong first pass built for human review

Why Gixo Lumen Feels Different

One presentation handoff workspace for teams that need a strong first pass, outline control, theme switching, citations, presenter tools, and delivery without rebuilding the deck somewhere else.

Start from real source material
Begin with a topic, notes, brief, or article instead of dragging blocks onto blank slides.
Review the structure before full generation
Plan outline options first so the deck flow is intentional before the final build.
Switch across 34 active themes
Change the visual system after the slides already exist, so design direction does not require rewriting the deck.
Deliver from the same deck you edited
Use present mode, slide thumbnails, notes, sharing, and exports without copying the work into another tool.

Plan, Edit, and Present in One Workflow

Use the AI presentation editor to review the structure, edit a slide or preview proposed Ask Lumen changes before applying them. Check source figures and the downloaded file before delivery.

Deck Workflow
A deck pipeline that keeps the structure under your control
Outline planning, editing, theme changes, present mode, and delivery all hang off the same deck instead of forcing you to rebuild work in a second tool.
1
Pick the source
Start from a topic, notes, article, brief, or uploaded material instead of a blank slide canvas.
2
Plan the outline first
Generate outline options, review the flow, and edit the structure before the full deck is built.
3
Refine the deck in context
Edit slide content, switch themes, add images, and transform sections without breaking the presentation.
4
Present or export
Use notes, timer, sharing, PDF, HTML, and slide image exports directly from the same finished deck.
The Lumen create screen: a topic box under the heading What should your slides be about, with Make slides, Outline first and From documents tabs

Topic or brief to deck
Prompt-driven deck creation and outline planning live in the same flow, so you can shape the narrative before the deck is generated.

Edit
Change the deck, not just the text
Slide editing, theme changes, transformations, and deck review all happen inside the workspace that generated the presentation.

Present
Review with presenter controls
Use slide thumbnails, notes, and present mode to rehearse and deliver without exporting the deck just to preview it.

Let readers move through a Stanza story at their own pace

Lumen includes Stanza for responsive visual stories. Plan scenes from the same source material, edit the writing and preview the design for the reading flow you want. Ask Stanza proposes text revisions for review; scene capacity and saved history help you continue the work.

Choose a scrolling HTML story, PDF, PowerPoint with editable text, or PowerPoint with exact appearance. The two PowerPoint modes trade independent text editing for a preserved scene image; creating a Lumen deck from the story is a separate conversion. Inspect the real story files and review Stanza editing and handoff choices.

Present, Share, and Export Without Rebuilding the Deck

Move from working deck to delivery mode with hybrid PowerPoint export that preserves editability where the layout supports it and fidelity where it does not.

Present mode
Run the deck in-browser with slide navigation built around actual delivery, not just editing.
Speaker notes and timer
Keep presenter notes attached to slides and use the timer while rehearsing or presenting.
Share the deck
Generate shareable deck access without flattening everything into screenshots first.
Hybrid PowerPoint export
PowerPoint export is hybrid by design: stable layouts become editable text and shapes, complex slides preserve fidelity as images, and the file opens cleanly in PowerPoint. Before an export runs, a deterministic readiness check inspects every slide and blocks the file when an unresolved placeholder, an unfilled image slot, or a browser-only image would otherwise ship unfinished, while fidelity trade-offs are surfaced as warnings rather than applied silently.
PDF export
Download a formatted PDF when you need a fixed version for review, approvals, or offline delivery.
HTML export
Keep a live deck-style export for browser-friendly delivery and easy internal sharing.
Slide images
Export slides as images when you need assets for docs, handoffs, or presentation fragments.
Cited sources slide
When a deck includes citations, a formatted Sources slide is appended automatically to PDF and PPTX exports.

What Kind of AI Presentation Software Is Lumen?

The category now contains three different products wearing the same label. Knowing which one you are shopping for saves an evaluation.

If you want The tool you want Is that Lumen?
A slide deck from a topic, fast Any AI presentation maker or AI slide generator Yes, and this is the least distinctive thing Lumen does
A deck built from your own documents A source-grounded presentation tool Yes — this is what Lumen is built around
A file you hand to a client or investor A deck builder with real PowerPoint export Yes — hybrid PPTX, PDF, HTML, and slide images
Several people editing one deck live A collaborative presentation platform Not yet — comments and collaboration are on paid Lumen, live co-editing is not the strength
Downloadable PowerPoint templates A template marketplace No — Lumen applies themes to decks it builds rather than selling template files

The short version: Lumen is presentation software for the decks that get sent, not the decks that get skimmed once and thrown away. It starts from a topic, notes, a brief, an article, or an upload; it plans the slide order and picks a layout per slide; it keeps the sources, citations, and presenter tools attached to the deck; and it exports a file the recipient can open without an account. Lumen's no-card 14-day trial includes AI generation and clean hybrid export. Downloads are not gated: a deck you generated stays yours to review, present, and export as PPTX, PDF, HTML, or slide images, unwatermarked, whether the trial is running, paid, or long over. Paid Lumen continues AI generation and AI editing after the trial. Public-link sharing is available during active trial or plan access; sharing with people, comments and Brand Kit controls require Professional or above, and saved brand themes require Business or above. Capacity and team controls depend on the selected tier.

AI Presentation Maker: Common Questions

What is an AI presentation maker?

An AI presentation maker turns a topic, brief, article, or uploaded document into a structured slide deck: it decides the slide order, picks a layout for each slide, and writes the copy. The useful ones keep the deck editable afterwards, because the first pass is a draft you shape rather than a finished artifact.

Is Lumen a free AI presentation maker?

Lumen runs on a 14-day trial with Starter generation capacity and clean hybrid export. Lumen's no-card 14-day trial includes AI generation and clean hybrid export. Downloads are not gated: a deck you generated stays yours to review, present, and export as PPTX, PDF, HTML, or slide images, unwatermarked, whether the trial is running, paid, or long over. Paid Lumen continues AI generation and AI editing after the trial. Public-link sharing is available during active trial or plan access; sharing with people, comments and Brand Kit controls require Professional or above, and saved brand themes require Business or above. Capacity and team controls depend on the selected tier.

What makes an AI presentation maker good for business decks?

Three things separate them: whether the deck holds one argument across all its slides rather than being a set of individually plausible slides; whether the sources behind each claim stay attached so a reviewer can check them; and whether the export opens cleanly in PowerPoint for whoever reviews it next. A deck that has to go back through the generator for every edit costs more than it saves.

Can I edit the slides an AI presentation maker produces?

In Lumen, yes — you edit on the canvas in the same workspace that generated the deck, then export to PowerPoint or PDF. The generated deck is the starting point for the version you actually present.

What can an AI presentation maker not do?

It cannot know what your audience already believes, decide what you are asking them for, or verify a fact it was not given. Those stay with you. What it removes is the mechanical work between having the argument and having slides that carry it.
