Effect Options
Effect Options in PowerPoint allow presenters to customize how animations and transitions behave — including direction, timing, sequence, and the degree of motion applied. For example, a Fly In animation can be set to arrive from the left, right, top, or bottom. Effect Options give presenters precise control over the appearance and feel of animations without requiring advanced design skills, making it easy to fine-tune motion effects to match the tone and pacing of a presentation.

Model Context Protocol (MCP)
The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open standard developed by Anthropic in 2024 and widely adopted in 2025 by OpenAI, Google, and Microsoft. It defines a standardized way for AI agents to connect to external tools, data sources, and enterprise systems — without requiring custom integrations for every connection. MCP acts as a universal interface: an AI agent with MCP support can securely access databases, APIs, document repositories, and business applications using a consistent protocol, regardless of the underlying system. This dramatically simplifies how AI is embedded into complex enterprise environments.

.pptm file extension
A .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.
