Term explanation
A personal response system (PRS) — also called an audience response system or clicker system — allows individual participants to respond to questions or vote in polls during a presentation or class. Each participant uses a handheld device or smartphone to submit their answer, and results are aggregated and displayed instantly. PRS technology is used in lectures, corporate training, and conferences to increase participation, gauge understanding, and make sessions more interactive.
SlideLizard LIVE is a personal response system built directly into PowerPoint. Participants respond to questions and polls from their own smartphones in real time — no dedicated hardware or separate app required.

Learn moreAudience Response Systems (ARS) are technical solutions that are used in presentations in order to increase the interaction between the presenter and the audience. There are various forms of ARS that offer different features.
Learn moreA data-driven presentation is a slide deck in which the content — charts, KPIs, tables, and narrative text — is directly derived from live or structured data sources rather than manually entered. Rather than copying figures from a dashboard into PowerPoint, data-driven presentations pull information automatically from connected systems such as CRM, ERP, or BI tools. The result is a living presentation that always reflects current data — and is the foundation of Agentic Slides architecture.
Learn moreA .pptm file is a macro-enabled PowerPoint presentation that contains one or more embedded VBA macros in addition to slides with text, images, and formatting. Macros allow presenters to automate repetitive tasks — such as updating data fields or triggering animations — directly within the file. Because .pptm files can run executable code, they are treated with caution by security tools and should only be opened from trusted sources.
