Your slides can make or break your webinar.
Even with a strong topic and a great speaker, a dull or messy slide deck can confuse your audience, or worse, lose their attention completely. On the flip side, a clean, well-structured presentation can boost engagement and help you get your message across.
But designing slides takes time. And not everyone has the skills (or the hours) to build a polished deck from scratch.
That’s where AI comes in. With the right tools, you can turn your ideas into a professional-looking slide deck—fast. No design experience required.
In this guide, you’ll learn how to use AI to plan, write, and build a webinar presentation that’s clear, focused, and ready to convert.

Step 1: Record Yourself Talking Through Your Topic
Before you start building slides, speak your ideas out loud.
Recording yourself is one of the easiest ways to organize your thoughts. It helps you clarify your message, uncover new angles, and keep your content sounding natural and human, not robotic.
Why it works:
- You speak faster than you write, so you’ll move through your ideas quicker.
- It’s easier to find your “voice” when you’re talking instead of typing.
- You’ll capture your authentic tone and flow, perfect for webinars.
How to record effectively:
- Use what you have: Your phone’s voice memo app or your computer’s built-in recorder is enough. You can also use free tools like Canva’s video recorder.
- Keep it short: Aim for 5–10 minutes. Focus on one core idea or a handful of key points.
- Speak naturally: Don’t worry about being perfect. Rambling is okay—you’ll clean it up later.
- Quiet your space: Choose a distraction-free spot to get clear audio. If you want help improving your setup, check out these practical tips to improve your webinar quality.
- Have a few notes ready: A quick outline or printed list helps keep you on track. You can also try a teleprompter app if needed.
This raw recording becomes your starting point. In the next step, you’ll turn it into a structured slide deck using AI.
Step 2: Use ChatGPT to Turn Your Transcript Into a Slide Outline
Now that you’ve recorded your thoughts, it’s time to shape them into a clear, organized presentation.
That’s where AI comes in.
By using ChatGPT, you can turn your raw transcript into a complete slide outline—without staring at a blank screen or spending hours trying to structure your message.
Here’s how to do it:
- Transcribe your recording: Use a free transcription tool or app to convert your audio into text.
- Paste it into ChatGPT: Drop your transcript into the prompt box.
- Use a clear prompt: Ask ChatGPT to generate a slide-by-slide outline based on your content.
Prompt Example:
“You are an expert presenter. Create a 10-slide webinar outline based on the transcript below. Include one main point per slide with 2–3 supporting bullets.”
- Review the outline: Ask ChatGPT to refine the tone, simplify the language, or expand on certain ideas if needed.
- Iterate as needed: If something feels off, ask for a new version or add follow-up instructions.
Why it helps:
- Speeds up the outlining process
- Keeps your content focused and audience-friendly
- Gives you a flexible starting point to edit and improve
With your outline ready, you’re one step closer to a polished webinar deck. Next up: turning that outline into a visually engaging presentation.
Step 3: Use Gamma to Turn Your Outline Into a Slide Deck
With your outline in hand, it’s time to bring your webinar deck to life.
Gamma is an AI-powered presentation tool that takes your outline and transforms it into a clean, professional slide deck—no design skills required.
Why Gamma works:
- It builds out your slides in minutes, saving you hours of formatting.

- You can customize everything—style, tone, layout, and content.
How to use it:
- Create a free Gamma account: Go to gamma.app and sign up.
- Start a new project: Choose “Create New AI” and select the option to build a presentation.
- Paste your outline: Drop in your ChatGPT-generated outline or upload a file.
- Pick a theme: Choose a visual style that fits your brand or topic—professional, colorful, minimal, etc.
- Edit and enhance: Adjust text, add images, tweak layouts, or insert interactive elements as needed.
- Export your deck: Download your slides as a PowerPoint or PDF, and you’re ready to present.
Pro tip:
Experiment with different versions. Small changes to your prompt or outline can give you entirely new looks and structures. Let AI handle the heavy lifting, then polish the details to match your voice.
Final Touches: Customize for Your Audience
AI gets you most of the way there, but your personal touch is what makes the deck truly impactful.
Before you hit “present,” take a few minutes to fine-tune your slides. This step helps you connect more deeply with your audience and makes your content feel thoughtful and relevant.
Here’s what to focus on:
- Refine your messaging: Make sure each slide speaks directly to your audience’s needs or challenges. Remove anything that feels off-topic or overly complex.
- Add real examples or stories: A quick case study, customer quote, or personal insight can make your content more relatable and memorable.
- Simplify the visuals: Too much text can overwhelm your audience. Use short bullets, clean layouts, and visuals that support your message.
- Include engagement prompts: Add space for a live poll, a short Q&A, or a simple “drop your thoughts in the chat” moment to keep people involved.
End with a clear call to action: Whether it’s booking a call, signing up for a trial, or downloading a resource, guide your audience on what to do next. For inspiration, explore these psychological triggers that drive webinar conversions.
