research-to-presentation

Transforms Notion research content into branded presentations through an automated workflow. Collects research from Notion pages/databases, synthesizes content to extract key topics and agenda items, creates presentation structure with slide plans, and generates branded PPT/Figma presentations. Use when converting research into meeting materials, creating data-driven presentations from Notion content, transforming documentation into executive presentations, or building slide decks from scattered research notes.

Research to Presentation Workflow

Automated pipeline for transforming Notion research into professional presentations with brand consistency.

Quick Start

# Full automated workflow
python scripts/run_workflow.py --notion-url [URL] --output-format [pptx|figma]

# Step-by-step execution
python scripts/extract_notion.py [URL] > research.json
python scripts/synthesize_content.py research.json > synthesis.json
node scripts/generate_presentation.js synthesis.json output.pptx

Workflow Steps

Step 1: Research Collection

Extract research from Notion:

# Use Notion tools to gather content
results = notion_search(query="research topic")
content = notion_fetch(page_ids)
extracted_data = extract_key_findings(content)

For detailed extraction patterns: references/research_patterns.md

Step 2: Content Synthesis

Analyze and structure content:

synthesis = synthesize_content(extracted_data)
# Returns: executive_summary, key_topics, agenda_items, supporting_data

Topic prioritization guide: references/agenda_templates.md

Step 3: Presentation Planning

Create slide-by-slide structure:

const slidePlan = generateSlidePlan(synthesis);
// Outputs: title, agenda, content slides with speaker notes

Layout options: references/slide_layouts.md

Step 4: Slide Generation

Convert to presentation format:

PowerPoint Output:

node scripts/generate_pptx.js synthesis.json output.pptx

Figma Output:

node scripts/export_to_figma.js synthesis.json --api-key [KEY]

Step 5: Brand Application

Apply corporate styling:

python scripts/apply_brand.py output.pptx --config assets/brand_config.json

Input Sources

Notion Pages: Individual research pages with notion://page/[ID] Notion Databases: Research collections with notion://database/[ID] Multiple Sources: Comma-separated URLs for comprehensive synthesis

Output Formats

PowerPoint (.pptx): Full presentation with animations and transitions Figma Slides: Web-based collaborative presentation format HTML Preview: Quick preview with --preview flag

Presentation Types

Executive Summary

• High-level findings (3-5 slides)
• Key metrics and KPIs
• Strategic recommendations
• See references/executive_template.md

Research Report

• Comprehensive findings (10-20 slides)
• Detailed methodology
• Data visualizations
• See references/research_template.md

Meeting Prep

• Agenda-driven structure (5-10 slides)
• Discussion topics
• Decision points
• See references/meeting_template.md

Customization

Brand Configuration

Edit assets/brand_config.json:

{
  "colors": {
    "primary": "#1a73e8",
    "secondary": "#34a853"
  },
  "fonts": {
    "heading": "Poppins",
    "body": "Lora"
  }
}

Slide Templates

Modify HTML templates in assets/templates/:

• title.html - Title slide layout
• content.html - Content slide layout
• data.html - Data visualization slide

Processing Rules

Adjust synthesis patterns in scripts/config.py:

• Topic extraction thresholds
• Agenda prioritization weights
• Content chunking sizes

Best Practices

1. Start broad: Cast wide net in Notion search, then filter
2. Validate sources: Check last-edited dates for currency
3. Chunk large content: Process in batches for token efficiency
4. Preview first: Use --preview to check before final generation
5. Version control: Keep synthesis.json for iteration

Troubleshooting

"No content found": Verify Notion permissions and page URLs "Synthesis failed": Check research.json structure and content "Brand not applied": Ensure brand_config.json is valid "Figma export error": Validate API key and network access

Advanced Usage

Batch Processing

# Process multiple research sets
for url in $(cat notion_urls.txt); do
  python scripts/run_workflow.py --notion-url "$url" --output "output_$(date +%s).pptx"
done
