# Presentations

Chart Deck lets you turn cross-tabulation data into polished, presentation-ready slide decks — with an AI assistant that can generate charts, write insights, and build entire outlines for you.

## What you can do

* **Create decks** from scratch, from notes, or from a PowerPoint template.
* **Upload cross-tab files** (`.xlsx` or `.csv`) and let the platform automatically extract tables for chart binding.
* **Bind charts** to cross-tabulation data and switch between bar, line, pie, donut, stacked, and grouped chart types.
* **Use the AI assistant** to generate slides, write executive summaries, and add insight text to every chart.
* **Export** to PowerPoint (`.pptx`) or share via a read-only link.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://help.metaforms.ai/reports/presentations.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
