Can Oral Slides edit the slide visuals?

No. Visual edits should happen in PowerPoint. Oral Slides only handles narration scripts, voice, audio, and the final MP4 render.

Does Decktopus export narrated MP4?

Decktopus is primarily a slide authoring tool. For narrated MP4 export with per-slide voice control, Oral Slides is more focused.

Comparison

Oral Slides vs Decktopus

Narrate the existing deck vs. AI deck generator

Decktopus generates a slide draft from a prompt — it’s an authoring tool. Oral Slides starts after the deck is ready and exports it as a narrated MP4. Use them in sequence, or pick the one that matches your current bottleneck.

Best for

Teams whose constraint is recording — the deck is done, narration is the missing step.

Not ideal for

Solo founders who want a deck draft in 30 seconds from a one-line prompt.

Pick Oral Slides when

You already have a polished deck and don’t want to redo it in another app.
You need narrated MP4s repeatable on a quarterly cadence.
You want voice quality competitive with dedicated TTS providers.

Pick Decktopus when

You want template-driven authoring rather than narration polish.
Subscription pricing is easier to explain to procurement than credits.

Workflow side-by-side

Hand-off pipeline

Decktopus → export to PowerPoint → Oral Slides → MP4. The two tools cover different halves of the funnel cleanly.

Oral Slides solo

For decks already living in PowerPoint or Keynote (export to .pptx), upload directly and skip the authoring tool.
