How to Make a Presentation in Notion

1. Confirm your plan and open the page. Presentation Mode shipped in Notion 3.4 (March 2026) and is in beta on the Plus, Business, and Enterprise plans. Open the page you want to present — any regular Notion page works, so you do not need a special template or a separate slides database.

2. Add dividers where you want the slides to break. Type /divider, or just three dashes (---) at the start of a line, wherever one slide should end and the next should begin. Each divider splits the page into another slide, so a page with four dividers becomes a five-slide presentation.

3. Structure each slide the way you would any Notion content. Put a heading at the top of each section to act as the slide title, use bullets for points, and use toggles for detail you want to reveal live. Toggles stay interactive in Presentation Mode, so you can open them on stage rather than crowding the slide.

4. Start presenting. Press Cmd+Alt+P on Mac or Ctrl+Alt+P on Windows, or open the ••• menu at the top-right of the page and choose Present. Notion takes over the full screen and turns each divider-separated section into a slide.

5. Navigate and exit. Move through the deck with the arrow keys; Notion auto-scales each section to fit the screen, so you never lay anything out by hand. Press Esc to leave Presentation Mode and drop straight back into the editable page.

What it does genuinely well is immediacy. There is zero setup, toggles stay live, and the slides are always in sync with the page because they are the page. For internal reviews, standups, planning sessions, and docs you already keep in Notion, that is often all you need — you present straight from where the work lives and never maintain a second file.

The honest limits start with "present-only." What you get is your raw page, scaled up. You cannot control the layout of an individual slide, arrange columns for impact, add a designed title visual, or brand it beyond Notion’s default look. Whatever is on the page is what lands on the screen, which is fine for a working doc and thin for anything you want to look designed.

The other two limits matter when you need to share. There is no native export: you cannot save the result as a .pptx or .pdf, so once you close the tab there is no deck to hand off or email. And the feature is gated to paid plans (Plus, Business, Enterprise) in beta, so free and personal accounts do not have it. If someone needs to open your deck in PowerPoint or receive it as a PDF, Presentation Mode alone will not get you there.

The two are solving different jobs. Presenting off a page is about immediacy — talk through what you already wrote, right where it lives. A deck is an artifact: something you design, export, and hand to people who may never see your Notion workspace. Notion nails the first job and, honestly, does not attempt the second.

A few signs you have outgrown Presentation Mode: your audience is outside your Notion workspace, someone needs the file emailed, you want each slide to actually look designed rather than "a page, but bigger," you are presenting to investors or clients where polish is part of the message, or somebody asks the classic question — "can you send me the deck afterwards?"

The good news is that the content-first habit Notion encourages — writing and structuring your thinking before anything gets designed — is exactly the right starting point for a designed deck. You are not starting over; you already have the substance. You just need a tool that turns that structured writing into slides you can style and export.

The converter route uses a small ecosystem of Notion-to-slides tools. Presentations.ai offers a Notion-to-PPT feature, Wunderpresentation converts Notion pages into decks, browser extensions like "Notion to Slides" project or export a page, and the open-source npm package notion-to-slides turns a page into a reveal.js deck. Quality and control vary, and you lose the live link back to your Notion page, but they do produce a file you can open elsewhere.

The content-first route keeps what people actually like about Notion — writing and shaping the thinking first — and ends in a real deck. Eazy’s editor is deliberately Notion-like: you write in a document with headings, bullets, toggle lists, and slide dividers, and when the words are right it designs the slides for you, on-brand by default. You then refine by talking to it in plain language — change one line and only that slide rebuilds — and export to PDF or PPTX.

One honest note on the workflow, because it is easy to assume otherwise: Eazy does not pull pages out of your Notion account automatically, and there is no account sync. You paste or rewrite your Notion content into its editor, or bring an exported doc, PDF, or file that it reads into editable content. The point is not a connection to Notion — it is that the writing experience feels like Notion but produces a designed, exportable deck. Start with a thought, not a prompt.

One idea per divider. Notion scales whatever sits between two dividers to fill the screen, so a section stuffed with ten bullets shrinks to something nobody can read from the back of the room. Split dense sections with more dividers so each slide carries a single, legible point.

Let headings do the titling. The heading at the top of each divider-separated section becomes the de facto slide title. Write it as the point the slide is making — "Retention rose after onboarding v2" — rather than a bare label like "Retention," so someone watching can follow your logic from the headings alone.

Use toggles for reveals and backup. Because toggles stay interactive while you present, tuck supporting detail, Q&A backup, or a punchline inside a toggle and open it live. The visible slide stays clean while the depth is one click away — a small trick that makes a plain page feel intentional.

Check it on the real screen first. Auto-scaling means a slide can look fine in the editor and cramped when projected. Run through the deck once in Presentation Mode on the actual display before you go live, and drop in extra dividers wherever the text feels tight. It is the closest Notion gets to a rehearsal.
