In their own words
deckhost
deckhost turns plain-text enhanced Markdown into presentations that can be published as shareable links. Users edit slide text directly and see a live preview; presentations support keyboard navigation, fullscreen mode, 12 reveal styles, math styling, syntax highlighting and background controls. AI use can rely on the user's Anthropic or OpenAI API key, and the product provides an MCP server for Claude Desktop and Claude Code. VS Code and Cursor extensions add live preview, speaker notes and one-click publishing. deckhost can import Marp frontmatter and map common directives to its own equivalents. Local work through the CLI, MCP server and presentation engine is free forever and needs no account; the CLI can also build static HTML for separate hosting. Published decks open in a browser without an account. The free plan is free, billed forever, with five published public decks and 100 API calls per day. Pro is $20 a month, and Team is $29 a month.
