Hey Product Hunt family 👋 We’re back!

A few months ago you helped Chronicle become #1 Product of the Month, and later #4 Product of the Year. Since then, the product has grown to 200k+ users. With that, came a huge amount of honest feedback. Hundreds of you told us where Chronicle worked, where it didn’t, and where it could be much better.
We read all of it.

Today, we're excited to launch Chronicle 2.0 to all of you!
Chronicle turns notes, prompts, or existing slide decks into stunning, on-brand presentations, generates an impressive first draft, and lets you refine slides through conversation.
There are a lot of AI presentation tools popping up right now. But most of them generate what we’ve started calling AI slide slop: generic layouts, messy structure, and decks you still have to spend hours fixing.
Our ambition is simple: to build the best storytelling tool for teams.

Here are a few things I’m most excited for you to try:

✴️ Chronicle AI: Think of it as a slide design coworker. Give it anything: notes, a prompt, or a rough idea, and it builds an impressive first draft you can refine and iterate on together.

🖼️ Custom branding & themes: Dozens of beautiful templates with real design taste, plus full brand customization so teams can stay on-brand.

📊 Charts & graphs: You can now add and customize charts directly inside Chronicle. They automatically adapt to your presentation’s theme.

🗃️ Export to PowerPoint & PDF: One of the most requested features, now live.

🪄 Hundreds of world-class templates: Created by designers from places like Apple, IDEO, McKinsey and BCG.

Special thanks to @benln for hunting us. And honestly, thank you. The feedback from this community is the reason Chronicle 2.0 exists. As a small thank you, use code PHPRO this week for 1 month of free PRO on any new account.

We’re shipping updates every single day, and will be hanging out in the comments all day. We’d genuinely love your thoughts. What should we build next?

PS. We also have a Slack community where you can interact with the team directly, get early access to new features, and shape what we build next. Would love to see you there: chr.so/slackcommunity

Cue

"AI presentations without the AI slop" is a great tagline and a real problem worth solving. The conversational refinement approach feels like the right way to do it instead of one-shot generation. Are you seeing teams use it more for building decks from scratch or cleaning up existing ones?

@dparrelli great question! we're seeing a mixture of both! folks coming with a new idea wanting to finesse positioning or brainstorm how to structure their deck. And also people with existing decks, import via pdf or ppt, and then our AI helps them turn it into a well designed presentation with our templates as a base.

Report

Chronicle

Maker

@dparrelli Definitely a bit of both! With our templates + AI features, users can build a first draft really quickly. Others also like to bring in their existing templates from PPT, or Google Slides and save them into their Chronicle workspace, so every time they're creating a new but similar deck, they can just use their templates and slightly tweak the content. This is a pretty common workflow across sales, strategy, product, and marketing folks, as well as founders!

I've used Chronicle, and I've used Gamma, but I felt that Chronicle fits my vibe much better than Gamma.

Both tools are good, but for me, Chronicle is a better fit. I really enjoy using the app, but if there's one thing I would improve, it is the customer support. I feel the customer support has a lot of scope for improvement. And a bad experience (delayed response) can leave a bitter taste.

Anyhow, wish you guys the very best! Onwards and upwards...

@bhavvikminhas Really appreciate this - glad Chronicle fits your vibe better! That’s exactly what we’re aiming for: helping people take rough thinking and turn it into something that feels polished and ready to present.

Also hear you on the customer support - that’s on us and something we’re actively working to improve. Thanks for calling it out, and for the kind words. Onwards and upwards 🙌

I really like how Chronicle is focused on how information flows throughout the deck. Especially since a slidedeck is meant to tell a story.

Are there ways to give further context to Chronicle such as the specific target audience, tone, or even the type of narrative/story I want my slides to convey? For example, "a startup pitch deck that is meant to be playful but concise and to the point for investors"

@lienchueh You’re touching on something we're actively working on! When you start creating a deck with Chronicle AI, the agent asks you to pick a narrative style if there isn't one already. You can also just include this in your initial prompt, and it should be picked up.

Would love your thoughts on how we can make this better once you've had a chance to try it out!

@lienchueh @harrispjose thanks for the support! I like the idea of asking about the tone. we're trying to find the balance between asking too many upfront questions, and getting you to see a first draft. Would love to know what you think!

@lienchueh Absolutely! you can curate the storyline with Chronicle at the start of every project. There, you can choose to narrate your story, add cues for target audience and tone. Muse will research and ask for your input simultaneously creating the slides.

@lienchueh Just for kicks, I tried your prompt with an "Airbnb for babysitters" example, here's what I got:

Here's the first draft of what Muse gave me. This just took less than 5 minutes to generate, and you can refine this quite a bit more.

@zerotox Hi Abhishek, Chronicle allows you to start from anywhere, meaning you can import your excel/csv files (or images, pdf, ppptx, plain text notes, etc) directly into Chronicle and start building beautiful decks right away. You can choose multiple models from Claude Opus, GPT 5.2, Gemini 3 Pro and more.

For images, you can use our inbuilt image-gen widget with multiple models including Nano Banana 2.0, Flux, Seedream, GPT, etc to create high-res images within Chronicle.

How does it differ from @Google Mixboard 2.0?

Report

Chronicle

Maker

@roopreddy Chronicle is a purpose-built, AI-first presentation platform designed for professional teams, think polished board decks, investor updates, and sales deck, with features like text-to-slides, brand kits, real-time collaboration, and designer-quality layout automation.

Google Mixboard 2.0, by contrast, is still an experimental Google Labs tool centered on visual brainstorming and mood-boarding, with slide export added as a secondary feature in its 2.0 update.

If you need repeatable, boardroom-ready decks, Chronicle is the more serious and mature choice; Mixboard is better suited for casual ideation that occasionally needs to be shared.

First, thank you. Everyone who voted, commented, or tried Chronicle. You helped us with a #1 finish in our first official launch on the same day Bubble also crossed 1000 votes. Massive gratitude

As a first-time founder, this was a special day. I would love to share what we've learnt. And would love to hear how we can do better, both in growing Chronicle and in improving the product itself.
