OpenAI carousel maker: common questions
What you can import, how AI helps, and what you can download.
Visit the help centerWhat can I turn into a carousel?
Use a public article URL, paste your own text, or upload a text-based PDF of up to 30 pages. Work with content you own or have permission to reuse.
How does AI help, and can I edit the result?
AI drafts a slide outline from your source. Review it before accepting, then edit titles, body text, key points, and slide order. Shorten and Rephrase return suggestions for you to accept or dismiss.
Which layouts and sizes are available?
Choose from six layouts in square (1:1) or portrait (4:5). Each project supports up to 12 slides.
Does the app post to my social accounts?
You download PDF or PNG ZIP files and publish them yourself. There is no social account connection or automatic posting.
Can it read a scanned PDF?
Use a PDF with selectable text, up to 30 pages and 15 MB. Scans and encrypted PDFs are not supported. You can paste the text instead; OCR and password removal are not included.
Will switching to dark mode change my export?
No. App appearance and document design are independent. Your saved colors, images, and type choices determine the exported pages.
Can I make a LinkedIn carousel and an Instagram carousel from the same project?
Yes. Use PDF for a LinkedIn document post and extract the PNG ZIP for individual Instagram images. Each new PDF or PNG ZIP uses one export allowance. Check the destination’s current requirements and upload the files yourself.
