Last updated:

Abstract:

Examples are disclosed that relate to methods and computing devices for providing voice-based assistance during a presentation. In one example, a method comprises receiving content of a slide deck, processing the content of the slide deck, and populating a contextual knowledge graph based on the content of the slide deck. A voice input is received from a presenter. Using the knowledge graph, the voice input is analyzed to determine an action to be performed by a presentation program during the presentation. The action is translated into one or more commands executable by the presentation program to perform the action, and the one or more commands are sent to a client device executing the presentation program.
