Classroom interaction without Google Slides dependency

Try Lectame for freeWhere Pear Deck excels
Pear Deck is seamlessly integrated into Google Slides and Google Classroom. For schools that run entirely on Google Workspace, that's a major advantage — no second tool, no separate roles, everything in one ecosystem.
Where Lectame stands out
- Standalone, no Google dependency. Works independently of whatever work environment your school uses.
- AI builds slides + questions. No blank Google Slide to start from — AI provides structure.
- Layered depth for differentiation. Pear Deck doesn't have this — Lectame does.
- EU data and GDPR. For schools with strict privacy requirements, a hard advantage over US cloud.
- Dutch-language. Interface and AI in Dutch — Pear Deck is English-first.

Frequently asked questions
How does Lectame differ from Pear Deck?+
Pear Deck is a Google Slides add-on — you use it inside Google Slides. Lectame is a standalone platform with its own editor, AI generation and layered depth. For anyone who doesn't want to be tied to Google Workspace, Lectame is the logical choice.
Does Lectame have the same "answer collectively" features?+
Yes. Lectame supports multiple choice, open questions, statements, pin-the-spot and ranking — comparable to Pear Deck. Plus extras: AI generation of questions and layered slides.
Can I import my Pear Deck slides?+
Not directly, because Pear Deck works inside Google Slides. However, you can export your Google Slides presentation as a .pptx and import it into Lectame. Then you add interaction.
Does Lectame also work in a Chromebook environment?+
Yes. Lectame runs in any modern browser, so it works fully on Chromebooks without a Pear Deck add-on or Google Workspace license.
