# OpenAI acquires NextSlide to add AI presentations to ChatGPT

*2026-08-10 · Source: [The Decoder](https://the-decoder.com/openai-acquires-nextslide-to-bring-ai-generated-presentations-into-chatgpt/)*

OpenAI acquired NextSlide, a startup that turns prompts, notes, and documents into editable presentations. The acquisition will bring AI-generated slide creation directly into ChatGPT.

**Why it matters:** This continues OpenAI's pattern of acquiring small, feature-specific startups to bolt new capabilities onto ChatGPT rather than building them in-house. It also puts OpenAI in more direct competition with Microsoft's AI-powered PowerPoint features.
