Presio MCP Server

Present PDFs from your browser - try it at presio.xyz. Upload a PDF presentation, get a short link, and control the slideshow from one browser window while viewers watch in another. Presio is a hosted service; this repository is its source code.

Teams that work with latex, pdf and presentation and want a hosted endpoint instead of running a local process. The project is written in TypeScript.
