Creating carousels from URLs or text

SlideDrift supports two low-friction starting points: URL input and direct text input.

Start from a URL

Use a URL when you already have a public source, such as a blog post, article, newsletter archive, or webpage. SlideDrift reads the page, extracts the useful points, and turns them into a carousel structure.

URL input is useful when you want to:

• Repurpose long-form writing into LinkedIn content.
• Pull out the main points from a published article.
• Create a carousel without manually copying the full source text.

The source URL must be publicly accessible. If the page is behind a login, paywall, blocked crawler, or private workspace, paste the text directly instead.

Start from text

Use text input when your content is not published yet. This can be a rough draft, notes, bullets, a short idea, or a longer piece of writing.

Text input is useful when you want to:

• Build from an idea before writing a full article.
• Turn private notes into a carousel.
• Control exactly what SlideDrift uses as the source.

Getting stronger outputs

Give SlideDrift enough direction to understand the audience and point of view. A clear title, a few concrete examples, or a short outline can improve the structure of the carousel.

Avoid pasting unrelated notes from several topics into one generation. If the source covers multiple ideas, split it into separate carousels.
