Chronicle

Chronicle is an AI presentation platform (chroniclehq.com) that turns documents, notes, data, and business context into beautiful, fully editable, on-brand presentations, using templates from designers at Apple, McKinsey, BCG, and IDEO. Beyond the web app, Chronicle ships a developer surface: a workspace-scoped REST API at api.chroniclehq.com/api/v1 for listing templates, creating and generating presentations, uploading reference files, and polling asynchronous generation jobs; and a hosted, OAuth-secured MCP server at mcp.chroniclehq.com that lets AI agents (Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini) create presentations directly. Chronicle is used by teams including OpenAI, Ramp, Vercel, Notion, Figma, and Meta, and is backed by Accel.

Chronicle publishes 1 API on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Cloud Saas, Presentations, Artificial Intelligence, and Productivity.

Chronicle’s developer surface includes documentation, API reference, getting-started guide, pricing, signup flow, support, engineering blog, and 25 more developer resources.
