excited to share opencanvas, a weekend project by ai engineers from mai, google, and anthropic that we're now open sourcing.
what it does:
transform any pdf document or topic into professional presentations in minutes using ai. the unique part: it has a built-in evaluation system that helps presentations self-evolve and improve.
key features:
- pdf to presentation conversion
- topic-based generation (just describe what you need)
- ai evaluation and self-evolution
- generates in minutes, not hours
- clean, professional designs
why we built this:
we were all tired of spending hours creating presentations from research papers and documents. most ai tools just generate basic slides - we wanted something that actually understands content and improves itself. turned into a fun weekend hackathon between colleagues.
