For ideas, concepts and processes

Slides that explain themselves

VectorDeck is for the decks that have to explain something — an architecture, a process, a result. A handful of animated vector slides tells the story that forty static ones can't.

The problem

Static slides are where ideas go to flatten

Most presentation tools were built for slides. The decks that matter — the ones that explain how something works — need motion, order and focus.

The diagram that needs you in the room
A static architecture or process diagram shows everything at once. Without someone talking over it, nobody knows where to look first — so the deck only works live.
Forty slides for one idea
When slides can't move, the explanation leaks into bullet walls, screenshots and appendix slides. The reader scrolls, loses the thread, and skims.
Exports flatten the motion
Builds die in the PDF, get baked into a recording nobody can edit, or need the original app to replay. The link you share is never the deck you made.

Same story. One slide explains itself.

Static. Everything lands at once and the bullets do the explaining. Where should the reader look first?

VectorDeck. One thing at a time, in the order it happens; the camera lands on what matters. No bullets needed.

How it works

1. Create
Start a deck in the browser — no install — or open VectorDeck for Mac. Shapes, text, ink, charts and bound connectors on one vector canvas.
2. Animate
Build one step at a time: entrance presets, a real timeline, camera moves, shape morphs and motion paths. Charts play their data in.
3. Share
Publish to one link. Viewers need no account and no app — it's crisp HTML on any screen, embeddable anywhere, on your own domain if you like.

Motion is the medium

A few slides, a whole story

Everything on a VectorDeck slide is a vector with a timeline. That's what makes a five-slide deck carry what used to take forty.

Builds & staggers
Reveal a diagram in the order it happens — entrance and exit presets, wipes and irises, per-child stagger with one click.
Camera moves
The slide is one canvas. Zoom into the part you're explaining and pull back out without making a second slide.
Connectors that follow
Arrows are bound to the shapes they join. Move or animate a box and every connector re-routes itself.
Morph & motion paths
Morph one shape into another, or send an element along a curve — both stay editable keyframe tracks.
Charts that play
Charts are bound to their data and build with the timeline; numbers count up. Change the data and the chart follows.
Pause, click, continue
Pause markers, click-to-zoom and click-to-play hotspots, Magic Move between slides — present it, or let it play itself.

Where the slide tools stop

PowerPoint, Google Slides and Keynote are great at slides. Gamma, Canva and Napkin are fast at first drafts. VectorDeck is built for the explanation itself.

AI, your way

An agent in the editor — on your key, at cost

Describe the slide you need. The agent calls typed tools against your deck — add a chart, build the diagram, set the camera — and every turn is one undo.

Any model you already pay for
OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, OpenRouter — or a local model through Ollama or LM Studio. Switch models per deck; the tools stay the same.
Your key never reaches us in clear
Requests go browser → provider. Keys live in an encrypted vault only your devices can open — no AI seat tax, no credit packs. A local model costs nothing at all.

Model Context Protocol

Turn an agent's analysis into a story it can show

VectorDeck for Mac ships an MCP server. Add it to Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Codex or Cursor and the agent that just finished the analysis — or the refactor, or the incident review — can build the deck that explains it: the slides, the animated flow, charts bound to the numbers it computed.

  • 50+ typed tools: read, create, animate, connect, check layout, export
  • What comes back is editable — open it in the editor and keep going
  • Governed by design: confirmation gates, one undo per call, a local audit log
  • No model keys involved — your agent brings its own

The MCP server is part of VectorDeck for Mac. In the browser, the in-editor agent uses the same tool catalog.

Built 5 slides. The flow builds left to right; the camera lands on the new queue; p95 counts down 410 → 180 ms. Open it:
