FAQ

Questions, answered

Yes. The timer, analytics, history, Study Mode and live sessions are free and need no account – the site is financed by ads. Only the AI feedback needs a free account: your first analyses are free, after that you can buy small one-time credit packs (no subscription). See Pricing.

Ads keep SlideTimer free. They are served by Google AdSense, which uses cookies; visitors from Switzerland, the EU and the UK are asked for consent first. The ads never see your slides or recordings, and they are never shown while you practise. If you buy AI credits, SlideTimer is ad-free for you.

PDFs are opened directly in your browser and never leave your device. PowerPoint files are sent to our server only to convert them to PDF and are deleted immediately afterwards. Recordings are only sent when you click Get AI feedback. They are analysed on our own server in Switzerland and not stored.
