Use InstaPresentation in Claude, Gemini, ChatGPT and other AI assistants

InstaPresentation has a remote MCP server, so your AI assistant can make and edit presentations for you. Ask for a deck in the chat and it's built in your InstaPresentation account, with charts, licensed real photos (credited on each image) and speaker notes, ready to edit, present or export to PowerPoint.

Server URL: https://instapresentation.com/mcp
