What to expect

What happens after you ask

Twistly works in the background, so the chat can look quiet for a minute. That’s normal.

Claude asks to use Twistly

The first time, approve the tool. Choose Always allow and Claude won’t ask again.

0 s

The job is queued

Claude sends your topic, text or file to Twistly and gets a job ID straight away.

Twistly builds the deck: usually 1–3 minutes

It writes the slides, lays them out and adds images. Claude checks the job for you, sometimes twice for a longer deck.

A download link appears in the chat

The link is permanent. Open the .pptx in PowerPoint on Windows, Mac or the web, or in Google Slides.

?

Gone quiet? Ask “Is my Twistly deck ready?”

Claude checks the same job for free. Don’t ask for the deck again: that starts a second job and uses another 20 credits on the Free and Starter plans.

Attached files reach Twistly as text. On Free and Starter, decks from a topic stop at 10 slides. Failed decks are refunded automatically.

Seguridad

What Twistly sees, and what it doesn’t

You approve access once, with OAuth, and can take it back at any time.

Only the request

Twistly receives only what Claude sends to its tools: your topic, text or document, your settings and your sign-in email. Never the rest of the conversation. The source and deck are stored so you can download it again.

Two permissions

Create presentations, and read the status of the ones it created. No password or API key passes through Claude.

Links open for anyone who has them

Download links don’t ask for a login, so share them the way you’d share the file.

Anthropic’s side

Your Claude settings apply to the chat. Anthropic states that feedback data doesn’t include raw content from connectors, unless you copy it into the conversation.

Disconnect or remove

In Claude, open Customize → Connectors → Twistly and select Disconnect, or ••• → Remove. On Team and Enterprise, an Owner removes it for everyone in Organization settings. Your decks and download links keep working.

PREGUNTAS FRECUENTES

Preguntas más frecuentes

About Twistly, Claude and your plan.

Yes, in several ways: it can write a .pptx itself, build slides in Claude Design, or work inside PowerPoint through Anthropic’s add-in. With Twistly connected, Claude hands the job to Twistly and you get a deck designed on one of 51 templates, as a .pptx link, usually in 1–3 minutes.

No. Claude for PowerPoint is Anthropic’s add-in that works inside an open PowerPoint file. Twistly is a separate company, not affiliated with Anthropic. Twistly has its own PowerPoint add-in, listed on AppSource as GPT for PowerPoint.

Yes. Twistly works on Claude Free as your one custom connector, and the free Twistly plan gives you 3 decks of up to 10 slides.

No. Twistly is billed separately. After 3 free decks you choose a Twistly plan; decks you make in Claude use the same account and balance as the Twistly add-in and web app.

Not from Claude. Ask for a new version, or open the .pptx in PowerPoint and edit it there, by hand or with the Twistly add-in (Redesign, Edit Text with AI and Speaker Notes are on paid plans).

Not in Claude. Uploaded templates (Pro and Team) work in the Twistly PowerPoint add-in. In Claude, name any of the 51 built-in templates, such as Berlin or Oslo.

Open the .pptx in Google Slides, or run it through our free PPT to Google Slides converter.

Solución de problemas

If something goes wrong

Most likely first.

Name Twistly in the request (“Use Twistly to…”) and check that it’s on under + → Connectors.

The deck is probably still being built. Ask “Is my Twistly deck ready?” Asking for the deck again starts a new job and costs another 20 credits on Free and Starter.

On Claude Free you can have one custom connector, so remove the one you have or upgrade. On Team and Enterprise, ask an Owner to add Twistly in Organization settings → Connectors. On a phone, add it on the web or desktop first.

Sign-ins last 7 days; select Reconnect. If you closed the sign-in window before it finished, disconnect Twistly and connect again.

On Free and Starter, decks from a topic stop at 10 slides. Upgrade, or paste your own text and build from that.

Free and Starter decks use 20 credits each. Upgrade to keep going; nothing was generated or charged for that request. On Pro and Team the same message means the 100-decks-a-day limit, which resets.

The connection belongs to the email you signed in with. Disconnect, then connect again with the email your Twistly plan is on.

That’s expected. Claude can read your attachment but can’t hand the file itself to a tool, so it passes the content across as text. Let it. If you’d rather Twistly get the file, give a public https link to it.
