Get 2 months of free Pro usage. And please help us with your support ♥️
If you’ve followed my writing for a while you know I care deeply about two things: ideas worth sharing and the craft of how we share them. For the past few years my co-founder Mayuresh and I have been obsessively rebuilding presentations from first principles.
The result is Chronicle – an AI-augmented storytelling canvas that helps you craft designer-grade decks in minutes instead of grinding through slides for hours.

Why Chronicle matters
• 100,000 people joined the wait-list before we wrote a single line of marketing copy.
• Chronicle’s AI agent doesn’t just fill templates. It collaborates on structure, word choice, and pacing, then renders every element with exacting typography and motion so your narrative feels hand-made rather than machine-generated.
• Peek, Deep Hover, and other focus tools let you guide attention like a film director – no more shotgun bullet points.
• It’s free to try in public beta, live right now at chroniclehq.com.
Today we are launching on Product Hunt, and I’m asking for a favor. Early traction on Product Hunt tells the wider tech community that Chronicle is a painkiller, not a vitamin. If you believe in cleaner stories and fewer soul-sucking slide nights, please take 30 seconds to support us.
Behind the scenes
Our vision is to become the “Cursor for presentations” , as several beta users have called us. That’s a lofty claim, but the path is clear:
Remove drudgery. Chronicle handles research, layout, and visual hygiene so you stay in your zone of genius.
Respect taste. We limit options the way great architects limit materials – constraints create coherence.
Focus attention. Every widget is designed to spotlight what matters and fade what doesn’t.
Stay human. AI assists; it never hijacks the narrative voice that makes your work yours.
It’s early, but the industry is noticing. Forbes profiled our launch this morning, calling Chronicle “the future of AI-first presentations.”
Design philosophy
Chronicle is built on a very simple belief: taste scales when it is encoded into systems. Instead of infinite blank canvases, we give you opinionated building blocks engineered by typographers, motion designers, and storytellers. The AI’s job is to assemble those blocks in a way that spotlights your thinking and never gets in its way. You focus on the why; Chronicle sweats the how.
