Send messages to attendees

Notify your participants during trainings or workshops about important stuff.


Performance improvements during a presentation

We have made a lot of optimizations so during your presentations questions, poll votes and all other information is more up to date!


Better handling of bad internet connection

Having a bad internet connection during your presentation means SlideLizard's interactive features like live polls, won't work. However, previously it was not always visible for the presenter when the internet connection failed. Now it's displayed directly in the presenter screen, so the speaker is aware and can resolve the issue.



Deletion of presentations

Whether it was just for testing or due to private data: finally, you can delete your presentations on SlideLizard!


Custom text for GDPR conform E-Mail collection

If you are giving presentations in the EU and want to collect E-Mail addresses of your participants, you need to get their explicit consent to send them further E-Mails. Since it's completely up to you what you want to do with the E-Mails (e.g. send offers or newsletters, …), you can now completely customize the opt-in text for your attendees.

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.

Webinar

A webinar is a live, interactive online presentation or seminar broadcast over the internet. Participants join from any location using a web browser or app and can interact with the presenter through chat, polls, or Q&A features. Webinars are widely used for training sessions, product demonstrations, thought leadership events, and virtual conferences. Unlike recorded e-learning, webinars create a sense of real-time connection between presenter and audience.

Recall Questions

Recall questions ask participants to retrieve and state information they have previously learned or been told. They test memory and knowledge retention rather than understanding or analysis. In training sessions and educational presentations, recall questions at the end of a segment can reinforce key points and check how much the audience has absorbed. While they don't assess deeper comprehension, they are an efficient tool for checking baseline knowledge and reinforcing core facts.

Normal view (slide view)

Normal View is the default editing mode in Microsoft PowerPoint. It displays the current slide in the center panel, a thumbnail panel on the left for navigating between slides, and a notes panel at the bottom for speaker notes. Normal View is where most presentation editing takes place — adding content, formatting text, inserting images, and adjusting layouts. It provides a clear, work-focused interface for building and refining individual slides.
