History and reuse
Pekari stores everything in a notebook — sources, generations and generated presentations. Unlike Smart Presentation, where every generation starts from scratch, Pekari lets you keep working from the same material.
Notebook structure
A notebook contains:
- Sources — texts, URLs, PPTX, DOCX that you've added
- Previously generated — list of presentations created from these sources
- Notebook title — editable in the header (click the title → Enter to save)
Notebook list
The /tools/pekari page lists all your notebooks:
- Click a notebook → opens detail
- Last-updated date (incl. adding sources)
- + New notebook button to create an empty one
Workflow with history
Iterating through multiple generations
- Create a notebook, add 3 sources
- Generate with 8 slides, Atelier template → output A
- Not happy — return to the notebook
- Generate again with 10 slides, Bolt template → output B
- In the Previously generated section both show up — switch between them and pick the better one
New versions from the same content
- For different audiences — internal (Atelier, 12 slides) vs. client (Bolt, 6 slides)
- A/B testing — generate 2 versions, show the team, pick one
- Updates over time — add a new source to the notebook, generate again; past outputs stay
Sharing a notebook
A notebook is private — only you see it. To share, share individual presentations from Builder (share and publish).
What doesn't persist
- AI structured data — if you don't pick a template right away and close the page, the structure is lost. Always complete the full flow (Sources → Generate → Template) in one go.
- Editing sources — once added, a source's text can't be modified. Delete and add again.
Deleting a notebook
In the current version notebooks can't be deleted through the UI — if you need to, email info@pmgclub.com.
Tips
- Name the notebook right away — the default "New notebook" is useless in the list once you have several.
- Notebook = project, not a junk drawer — for a completely different topic, create a new notebook instead of mixing in unrelated sources.
- Generate in small batches — instead of "sources from 3 articles + 2 PPTX + 5 texts", focus on one topic. AI will be more precise.
- Builder has its own history — the generated project has its own versions in
/tools/presentations. Pekari doesn't store the edited version, only links to the project ID.
