Creating and Using Realtime Interactive Presenter Agents

Realtime Interactive Presenter Agents transform a single PDF deck or playbook into an interactive experience. Instead of clicking through slides, audiences can ask questions, jump to chapters, and get tailored explanations in real time.

What Makes a Presenter Agent Different?

  • Single document focus – One uploaded PDF anchors the entire conversation.
  • Guided navigation – Users can request summaries, ask for the next slide, or revisit earlier sections.
  • Context awareness – The agent understands slide order and their relationships, keeping answers on-track.
  • Always on-brand – Deliver consistent demos and trainings without relying on a live presenter.

Conversational Slides

Navigate decks through natural language instead of manual slide controls.

Instant Recaps

Generate quick summaries for any slide or section within the deck.

Audience Q&A

Field questions as they arise while staying grounded in the uploaded content.

Consistent Delivery

Keep messaging uniform across every presentation and channel.

Wait for the processing banner to finish and verify the character count updates.
Presenter Agents do not accept additional knowledge sources. For multi-document experiences, create a Worker Agent instead.

Delivering a Great Experience

  • Rehearse navigation prompts so you know how the agent references each slide.
  • Prepare likely questions and validate the responses stay aligned with your narrative.
  • Pair with Worker Agents when you need deeper knowledge or integrations beyond the deck.
  • Monitor Insights to see which slides and questions resonate most with audiences.

Troubleshooting

Confirm the PDF is not password-protected, stays under size limits, and contains selectable text.
Add supporting context or summary bullets to the relevant slides before re-uploading. The agent relies on the information in the document.
Create a Worker Agent instead, or link multiple presenter agents together using share links.
