I want to make a presentation that watches itself, what are my options?

Your main options are narrated slides, exported video, or hybrid guided-deck links, and each has different trade-offs for editing speed, hosting, and engagement data.

Exported MP4 video is the simplest distribution format. You record narration over the slides once and end up with a single file that plays anywhere. The downside is that editing a single sentence or chart means re-rendering the entire video and re-uploading. For decks that change weekly, this approach quickly burns hours.

Narrated slide links are the better fit for content that evolves. The deck lives at a single URL, narration sits alongside each slide, and updating one slide only requires re-recording that one block. AI voiceover makes this fast because you change the script text and regenerate audio in seconds without setting up a microphone again.

Hybrid guided web decks add navigation control. Viewers can click through at their own pace, jump to a specific section, or skip ahead, while still hearing your narration. This works well for product demos and onboarding content where viewers want to scan, not sit through 20 minutes linearly. You also get analytics showing which slides held attention and which got skipped.

For most B2B use cases, lean toward the narrated link approach. It costs the least to maintain over six months, plays on mobile browsers without an app install, and gives you the per-viewer engagement signals you cannot get from a downloaded MP4. Reserve exported video for one-off broadcasts where you genuinely will not touch the content again.
