Speaker notes are read in too if present.","step2Title":"Step 2: AI Explains Every Slide","step2Description":"The AI writes narration for each slide that actually explains the content — not \"the next bullet says\" — and uses speaker notes when they exist.","step3Title":"Step 3: Watch & Study","step3Description":"Each slide becomes a video chapter. Watch, search the transcript, ask the AI follow-ups, generate flashcards.","howWorksTitle":"How Slides to Video Works","howWorksPara1":"PowerPoint's built-in \"Export as Video\" feature only plays back the narration and timings you recorded yourself — with no recording, you get silent timed slides. Scholarly's slides to video tool writes the lesson for you: it reads each slide as a teacher would, writes new narration that explains what the bullet points are pointing at, and produces a video where you actually learn from the deck.","howWorksPara2":"The AI parses every slide individually — title, body text, images, charts, code blocks, and embedded equations. If the deck has speaker notes, those are folded into the narration. The output keeps your original slide visuals on screen while a natural voice walks through what each slide actually means, slide by slide, in the same order you'd expect from a lecture.","whyTurnTitle":"Why Turn Slides Into Video?","whyTurnPara1":"Most slide decks were never meant to stand alone. A professor's lecture deck makes sense in the room, with the prof talking — but the deck by itself is just bullet points and an occasional diagram. When you're studying the same deck a week later, half of it is incomprehensible because the verbal explanation is gone. Slides-to-video reconstructs that missing explanation.","whyTurnPara2":"It's also useful for missed classes. If you couldn't attend lecture but the prof posted the slides, generating a narrated video gets you most of what you missed without having to wait for a friend to share notes. And if you're the one giving a presentation, a narrated video of your own deck makes a great share-with-audience version of your talk.","supportedFormatsTitle":"Supported Deck Formats","supportedFormatsPara1":"PowerPoint (.pptx) is the primary format — every slide, layout, image, chart, embedded equation, and speaker note is parsed. Keynote (.key) files work after exporting to PowerPoint or PDF. Google Slides decks should be downloaded as .pptx or .pdf first. Slide PDFs work great — the AI handles them the same as a native deck. Even handout PDFs with multiple slides per page get parsed correctly.","supportedFormatsPara2":"Speaker notes (when present) substantially improve the output. If your professor included notes in their deck, the AI uses them as the authoritative source for what each slide is really about — so the narration matches what the lecturer intended, not just what's written on the slide.","pipelineTitle":"From Slides to Flashcards to Exam","pipelinePara1":"Once your deck is a video lecture inside Scholarly, the rest of the study loop is one click. Generate flashcards from the deck and the AI turns every definition, framework, and key concept into a question-and-answer card. Generate an exam and the AI writes multiple-choice and free-response questions that test the same material the slides cover.","pipelinePara2":"That's the full slides-to-mastery pipeline: lecture deck → narrated video → flashcards → graded exam. For every set of slides your professor posts, you get a complete review workflow that takes a fraction of the time of rereading the deck.","shareTitle":"Share With Your Class","sharePara1":"Generated videos have a shareable link. Split a course's slide decks among your study group — each person converts one or two lectures, shares the Scholarly video, and the whole group ends up with narrated versions of every deck plus shared flashcards. It's the kind of asynchronous study workflow that used to require someone recording the prof in class.","faqTitle":"Frequently Asked Questions","relatedLinksHeading":"More Scholarly video tools","bottomCtaTitle":"Unlock Full Potential with Scholarly","bottomCtaDescription":"Sign up for free to turn slide decks into narrated video lectures, generate flashcards, and access more AI study tools.","faq0Question":"How do I turn slides into a video lecture?","faq0Answer":"Upload your PowerPoint or PDF slide deck (export Keynote to PowerPoint or PDF first). Scholarly's AI reads each slide, uses speaker notes when present, and generates a narrated video that explains every slide in order — keeping your original slide visuals on screen while a natural voice walks through the content.","faq1Question":"Is the slides to video tool free?","faq1Answer":"Yes. Free accounts get lifetime free slides-to-video credits. Paid plans unlock longer decks, higher limits, and the full study suite — flashcards, exams, AI chat, and longer videos.","faq2Question":"What slide formats are supported?","faq2Answer":"PowerPoint (.pptx) is the primary format. Keynote (.key) works after exporting to PowerPoint or PDF. Google Slides should be downloaded as .pptx or .pdf first. PDFs of slides — including handout PDFs with multiple slides per page — work too.","faq3Question":"Does it use my speaker notes?","faq3Answer":"Yes. If your deck has speaker notes, the AI uses them as the authoritative source for what each slide is about. Decks with notes produce much more accurate narration than bare slides.","faq4Question":"How is this different from PowerPoint's Export as Video?","faq4Answer":"PowerPoint's export plays back narration you recorded yourself (or exports silent timed slides if you didn't record any). Scholarly writes new narration that explains what the bullets mean — like a teacher would — and uses a natural-sounding voice. The result is something you can actually learn from.","faq5Question":"How long does video generation take?","faq5Answer":"Most decks generate in 10–20 minutes depending on slide count and complexity. You can close the page and Scholarly will notify you when the video is ready.","faq6Question":"Can I generate flashcards from the deck?","faq6Answer":"Yes. Once your deck is a video lecture, click Generate Flashcards. The AI extracts definitions, frameworks, and key concepts from the slides into a spaced-repetition deck you can study or export to Anki.","faq7Question":"Does it work with image-heavy decks?","faq7Answer":"Yes. Images, charts, diagrams, and embedded math are all parsed. The narration describes the visuals so the audio makes sense even without watching, and the original slide visuals stay on screen during the corresponding chapter.","faq8Question":"How do I turn slides into a video lecture?","faq8Answer":"Upload your .pptx, Google Slides export, or slide PDF. Scholarly reads each slide (and any speaker notes), writes narration that explains what the slide actually means, and produces a chaptered video lecture with your visuals on screen plus a synchronized transcript. From there you can generate flashcards and a practice exam from the same deck.","faq9Question":"Can I turn Google Slides into a video?","faq9Answer":"Yes. Download your Google Slides deck as .pptx or .pdf (File → Download), upload it, and Scholarly narrates every slide into a video lecture. Speaker notes carried over from Google Slides are used as the authoritative source for what each slide is about.","faq10Question":"Can I turn an SOP or process document into a training video?","faq10Answer":"Yes. Upload the SOP, process doc, or policy PDF (up to 10 files, or 20 on Laureate) and Scholarly writes a teaching script only from that material, then generates a narrated video with chapters, captions, and a transcript. Review it before rolling it out — it represents your process to your team.","faq11Question":"Does it work for business reports, decks and onboarding guides?","faq11Answer":"Yes. Slides to video works for any text-based document: reports, slide decks, onboarding guides, product guides, and internal wikis exported to PDF. You can combine up to 10 files into one video (20 on Laureate), and the original files stay in your workspace so anyone can chat with them and get cited answers.","faq12Question":"Can my team share the videos?","faq12Answer":"Yes. Every video has a shareable link that opens in the browser with chapters, captions, and a transcript; paid plans can download a watermark-free MP4 to host in your wiki or intranet. Scholarly for Teams adds shared source libraries, Member and Admin roles, and central billing, and every seat inherits the team's Premium or Laureate plan.","workTitle":"For work and teams","workIntro":"The same generator works on work material. Upload an SOP, a report, a deck, or an onboarding guide and Scholarly writes a narrated, chaptered video grounded only in what the document says — no filming, no slides to build, no script to write.","workUse0Title":"SOP or process doc → training video","workUse0Desc":"Turn a standard operating procedure or process document into a short narrated training video with chapters, captions, and a transcript, so new hires can follow the steps in order and jump to the one they need.","workUse0Link":"AI training video generator","workUse1Title":"Report or deck → team briefing video","workUse1Desc":"Upload a quarterly report, a policy PDF, or a slide deck and share a narrated briefing with a link instead of asking everyone to read the full document.
