Announcing o11's backing from Y Combinator.
From 100-Page PDF to a 10-Slide Deck in Under 5 Minutes
We’ve all been there: a 120-page equity research report or a 200-page regulatory filing lands in your inbox, and your boss needs a summary deck by the 10 AM meeting.
In the old days, this was a manual slog of reading, highlighting, and copying. With o11, it’s an automated workflow.
The “Distillation” Workflow
Step 1: Upload the Source
Open the o11 workspace in PowerPoint and drop in your PDF(s). o11 indexes the entire document library, including tables, footnotes, and fine print.
Step 2: Define the “Angle”
Don’t just ask for a “summary.” Be specific:
“Analyze this PDF for all mentions of ‘supply chain risks’ and ‘capital expenditure guidance’. Create a 5-slide summary deck focusing on the margin impact for 2026.”
Step 3: Extract the Visuals
One of the hardest parts of summarizing reports is finding the right charts. Ask o11 to find them for you:
“Find the table on page 42 regarding ‘Regional Segment Revenue’ and recreate it as a bar chart on Slide 3.”
Step 4: Add Executive Context
Apply your firm’s brand:
“Apply the ‘Executive Briefing’ template and ensure all titles are in 18pt Garamond.”
Why o11 is Better than ChatGPT for This
Generic LLMs like ChatGPT can summarize text, but they can’t format slides. They might give you the text for a slide, but you still have to build it.
o11 is the only tool that reads the document and physically places the content into your PPT file, aligned and formatted.
Conclusion
The ability to process large amounts of information and turn it into actionable visual deliverables is a superpower. o11 gives that superpower to every analyst on your team.
