# Speaker Notes

Generate talking points for your slides, written into PowerPoint's notes area. Available on all paid plans.

## Generate

* **Current slide** — notes for the selected slide. Twistly reads the neighboring slides too, so the notes flow naturally with your narrative (an opening slide gets an opener, a closing slide gets a wrap-up).
* **All slides** — notes for the whole presentation in one pass.

Notes are written in the **same language as the slide** — a Spanish deck gets Spanish notes.

## Rewrite existing notes

The **Rewrite** option adjusts notes you already have: improve the writing, **make them longer or shorter** (roughly ±30%), **translate** them, or apply your own custom instruction — for the selected slide or all slides.

## Good to know

* Generating for all slides on a long presentation can take a couple of minutes; you can cancel at any time.
* Generated notes **replace** what's in the notes field for those slides — if you have handwritten notes you want to keep, copy them out first or generate per-slide.
* For very large files (hundreds of megabytes of media), consider saving a copy before running all-slides generation.
