Turn an Existing Deck into an Interactive Course
Upload a .pptx — your old training deck — and Kompyl returns a redesigned deck plus quiz + flashcards + guide.
Most teams have a "good enough" deck sitting in SharePoint that nobody loves but everybody re-uses. Kompyl ingests the existing .pptx, extracts the structure, redesigns the slides with a chosen palette, and assembles a complete course kit around the deck — quiz, flashcards, facilitator guide.

What Kompyl actually returns

Module 3
Information Security 101
Source: 2019 InfoSec deck → redesigned in palette "Midnight"
Three classes of incident
- Phishing — credential theft via spoofed comms.
- Data exfiltration — sensitive data leaving the perimeter.
- Lost / stolen device — physical control of an endpoint lost.
- Each maps to a different response runbook (see Module 4).
Takeaway
Speaker notes preserved
100%
of the original notes carried into the facilitator guide
Your trainer's commentary lives on, attached to the matching new slide.
What this means in practice
- Native .pptx support — your slide text + speaker notes survive.
- Slides are redesigned to one of 17 palettes (Cream, Midnight, Corporate, EduBubble, Luma, …).
- Quiz pulls from the speaker-notes facts where they exist.
- Output bundles back to a fresh PPTX + ZIP with quiz / flashcards / guide.
Common questions
- Do my original images and animations survive?
- Text on slides and speaker notes are extracted verbatim and seed the new deck. Visual assets (images, charts, animations) are NOT carried over — Kompyl rebuilds each slide using its own designer system so the output looks consistent. If you need a 1:1 visual port, use the dashboard editor to drop images back into specific slides post-generation.
- Can Kompyl use my existing slide deck as a "voice/style" reference?
- Not yet — the designer pipeline picks from 17 fixed palettes. Brand-fingerprint mode (match company colors + fonts from an uploaded sample deck) is on the roadmap for Q3.
- What is an AI course generator?
- An AI course generator is a tool that turns a document, brief, or topic into a structured online course — typically including slides, a quiz, and supporting study material — in a single workflow. The goal is to compress what used to be 8–20 hours of instructional design into a few minutes of upload + review.
- How is Kompyl different from Gamma or HeyGen?
- Gamma generates slides. HeyGen generates avatar video. Kompyl generates a complete course kit — slides plus a quiz, flashcards, a study guide, and a facilitator guide — all from one upload. You can edit every block, swap palettes, change languages, and re-render.
- Can I upload a PDF and get a course back?
- Yes — Kompyl accepts PDF, DOCX, PPTX, TXT, MD, HTML, and CSV uploads. Scanned PDFs are OCR'd via vision AI automatically. The PDF is read, structured into modules, and rendered as a multi-slide deck with a matching quiz and facilitator guide.
- Is there a free version?
- Yes — anonymous visitors get a free preview and signed-in free accounts get a small monthly quota. Paid plans unlock larger course lengths, more downloads, and premium palettes.
