Podium
Present the diagram, not a screenshot of it
Podium presents straight from the diagram. Frame the regions you want to talk through, and each one becomes a slide. Present them in the browser, on the live canvas.
Premium and up
Framing regions of a canvas as slides, then presenting them with the notes beside the diagram.
Why Podium
Diagrams meet slides… slidagrams?
The canvas is the deck
Frame the part of the diagram you want to talk through. That region is a slide. Slides group into chapters.
Present the real thing
Arrow keys move the camera from slide to slide. Stop anywhere, click a shape, read its stratum, then carry on.
Then just send the link
The deck is part of the blueprint. Send the URL, or paste the embed into Confluence. The arrows work there too.

FAQ
Questions about Podium
What is a Podium slide?
A framed region of a real canvas. There is no export step and no second copy of the diagram to keep in step.
How do I present?
In the browser. Arrow keys move the camera from slide to slide, Space advances, and Home and End jump to either end.
Can I stop and dig into something mid-presentation?
Yes. Stop anywhere, click a shape, read its stratum, then carry on from the same slide.
Can I send the deck to someone who was not there?
Send the blueprint's URL, or paste the embed into Confluence. The arrow keys work in the embed too.
Can a slide be a plain image?
Paste a screenshot into the slides panel and it arrives as a new slide, sized to fit.
Can one canvas hold more than one deck?
Each diagram tab carries its own slide list, so a two-hour design review and a five-minute intro can come out of the same canvas.
