Article to deck
Paste a link to a public article and get a six slide visual deck: cream slides, navy text, drawn illustrations.
Free, no signup. One deck per visitor per day.
Paste an article link above. Rendering takes a minute or two because every slide is drawn as an image.
What this tool does
It reads the article behind your link, plans six slides with a language model, then draws each slide as a single illustrated image. The result looks like a NotebookLM style briefing: a title card, the core argument, the strongest evidence, and a closing takeaways slide. It is the exact pipeline Bookmarx runs on long posts and linked articles that its users save on X (Twitter), pointed at one URL of your choice.
The limits, stated plainly
Image generation costs real money per slide, so the free version is strict: one deck per visitor per day, a global daily budget, and occasional pauses when that budget runs out. The article must be publicly readable. Paywalls, login screens, and pages that assemble themselves in JavaScript will fail before any generation starts, and a failed fetch does not use up your daily deck.
Decks are not stored. If you want a version that remembers, sits next to the source, and works on the posts you save instead of links you paste, that is the product. Connect X in Bookmarx and every saved long read can become a deck.
Frequently asked questions
What counts as a public article?
Any page readable without a login: blog posts, news articles, documentation, newsletters with a web version. Paywalled pages and pages that only render through JavaScript usually cannot be read, and the tool will tell you so instead of producing a thin deck.
Why only one deck per day?
Every deck renders six illustrated slides with a paid image model, so an open endpoint would be an open wallet. One deck per visitor per day plus a global daily budget keeps the tool free. Bookmarx subscribers get decks on the posts they save without these limits.
Can it read X (Twitter) threads?
No. X pages need a logged-in session to read, so the tool cannot fetch them. Bookmarx handles that case properly: it syncs the posts you save through the official X API and can build decks from the long ones.
Is my article or deck stored?
The URL is fetched once to read the article text, and the slides are returned straight to your browser. The deck is not saved on our side; when you close the page, it is gone.
