Implementation Details¶
1. Content Generation (BedrockContentGenerator)¶
Model: Claude Sonnet 4.5 Purpose: Generate presentation outline, slide content, bullet points
Process: 1. User provides topic, number of slides, language, tone, audience 2. Claude generates structured JSON response:
{
"title": "Presentation Title",
"subtitle": "Optional subtitle",
"slides": [
{
"slideNumber": 1,
"heading": "Slide Title",
"bulletPoints": ["Point 1", "Point 2"],
"imagePrompt": "AI image generation prompt",
"speakerNotes": "Presenter notes"
}
]
}
Cost per presentation: ~$0.003 (2,000 tokens @ $0.0000015/token)
2. Image Generation (BedrockImageGenerator)¶
Model: Stable Diffusion SDXL Purpose: Generate professional images for each slide
Process:
1. Takes imagePrompt from each slide
2. Enhances prompt with quality modifiers:
- "professional, high quality, detailed, 4k, sharp focus"
- Style-specific enhancements (photographic, corporate, cinematic)
3. Generates 1024x1024 images
4. Stores images on AWS S3 with public access
5. Returns S3 URLs for embedding
Supported Styles:
- photographic - Photorealistic images
- corporate - Professional business style
- digital-art - Digital artwork
- illustration - Vector illustration style
- cinematic - Dramatic movie poster style
Cost per image: ~$0.05 Cost for 10-slide presentation: ~$0.50 (10 images)
Total generation cost: ~$0.50 per presentation
3. Presentation Assembly (PresentationAssembler)¶
Library: PhpOffice/PhpPresentation Output Format: PowerPoint 2007+ (.pptx)
Features: - ✅ Title slide with heading + subtitle - ✅ Content slides with heading, bullet points, images - ✅ Speaker notes for each slide - ✅ Customizable slide dimensions (16:9, 4:3) - ✅ Professional formatting and styling - ⚠️ PDF export (requires LibreOffice - future enhancement)
Fallback: HTML presentation if PhpPresentation not available
Storage: AWS S3 (compliant)
Installation & Setup¶
1. Install Dependencies¶
2. Environment Configuration¶
Add to .env:
# AWS Bedrock Configuration
AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=your_access_key
AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=your_secret_key
AWS_DEFAULT_REGION=us-east-1
# AWS S3 Storage
AWS_BUCKET=your-bucket-name
AWS_URL=https://your-bucket.s3.amazonaws.com
# Filesystem default (use S3 for compliance)
FILESYSTEM_DISK=s3
3. Update AiPresentation Controller¶
Replace GammaService with BedrockPresentationService:
// OLD (Non-compliant)
use App\Extensions\AiPresentation\System\Services\GammaService;
$service = new GammaService();
// NEW (AWS-compliant)
use App\Extensions\AiPresentation\System\Services\BedrockPresentationService;
$service = new BedrockPresentationService();
Files to update:
- app/Extensions/AiPresentation/System/Http/Controllers/AiPresentationController.php
- app/Extensions/AiPresentation/System/Http/Controllers/GammaAiSettingsController.php (remove or repurpose)
4. Database Migration (if needed)¶
The ai_presentations table should already exist. If not:
Schema::table('ai_presentations', function (Blueprint $table) {
$table->json('content_data')->nullable();
$table->json('images_data')->nullable();
$table->string('pptx_url')->nullable();
$table->string('pdf_url')->nullable();
});
API Usage¶
Generate Presentation¶
Request:
$result = $bedrockService->generatePresentation([
'description' => 'Benefits of Cloud Computing',
'presentation_count' => 10,
'language' => 'en',
'text_length' => 'medium',
'textOptions' => [
'tone' => 'professional',
'audience' => 'technical managers',
],
'imageOptions' => [
'style' => 'corporate',
],
'exportAs' => 'pptx', // or 'pdf'
]);
Response:
object(stdClass) {
msg: "Presentation generated successfully"
type: "success"
data: {
generationId: "bedrock_abc123_1234567890"
status: "completed"
pptxUrl: "https://bucket.s3.amazonaws.com/media/presentations/..."
pdfUrl: null
}
}
Check Status¶
Comparison: Gamma AI vs AWS Bedrock¶
| Feature | Gamma AI (Old) | AWS Bedrock (New) | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| Compliance | ❌ External API | ✅ AWS-hosted | ✅ |
| Content Generation | Gamma AI | Claude Sonnet 4.5 | ✅ Better quality |
| Image Generation | Gamma AI | SDXL Bedrock | ✅ Same quality |
| Cost per presentation | ~$0.05 | ~$0.50 | ⚠️ Higher cost |
| Customization | ❌ Limited | ✅ Full control | ✅ |
| Export Formats | PDF, PPTX | PPTX (PDF coming) | ⚠️ |
| Speed | ~30-60 seconds | ~45-90 seconds | ⚠️ Slightly slower |
Cost Analysis¶
Gamma AI (Non-compliant): - $0.01-0.05 per presentation - ❌ Risk losing AWS benefits - ❌ Risk losing PPA drawdown - ❌ Badge removal by Jan 21, 2026
AWS Bedrock (Compliant): - $0.50 per presentation - ✅ 100% compliant - ✅ Retain all AWS benefits - ✅ Keep "Deployed on AWS" badge
ROI: The extra $0.45/presentation cost is worth it to maintain AWS partnership benefits.
Testing¶
Test Generation¶
php artisan tinker
$service = new \App\Extensions\AiPresentation\System\Services\BedrockPresentationService();
$result = $service->generatePresentation([
'description' => 'Introduction to AWS Bedrock',
'presentation_count' => 5,
'language' => 'en',
'text_length' => 'medium',
'exportAs' => 'pptx',
]);
dump($result);
Verify S3 Storage¶
Migration Guide¶
From Gamma AI to AWS Bedrock¶
Step 1: Install dependencies
Step 2: Update controller imports
// Change this
use App\Extensions\AiPresentation\System\Services\GammaService;
// To this
use App\Extensions\AiPresentation\System\Services\BedrockPresentationService;
Step 3: Update service instantiation
// Change this
$service = new GammaService();
// To this
$service = new BedrockPresentationService();
Step 4: No API changes needed - interface is compatible!
Step 5: Test thoroughly
Step 6: Remove Gamma AI references
rm -f app/Extensions/AiPresentation/System/Services/GammaService.php
rm -f app/Extensions/AiPresentation/System/Services/GammaCreditPredictor.php
rm -f app/Extensions/AiPresentation/System/Http/Controllers/GammaAiSettingsController.php

"Statement": [
{
"Effect": "Allow",
"Action": ["s3:PutObject", "s3:GetObject"],
"Resource": "arn:aws:s3:::your-bucket/*"
}
]
}
Error: "Bedrock InvokeModel failed"¶
Solution: Enable Bedrock models in AWS Console - Go to AWS Bedrock console - Request access to Claude Sonnet 4.5 - Request access to Stable Diffusion SDXL
