1
Gamma Free tier
Generates presentations, documents and web pages from a prompt or outline with a card-based layout engine.

+ The best-looking AI-generated decks with the least fiddling, and it exports to PowerPoint and PDF.
− Exports lose some formatting, and the free tier watermarks and limits AI credits.

Microsoft's assistant, free on the web and Windows, and embedded in Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook and Teams with Microsoft 365 Copilot.

+ Works inside the Office apps you already use, drafting Outlook replies, summarizing Teams meetings and turning Word docs into PowerPoint decks.
− Results inside Excel and PowerPoint are often shallow compared with the standalone chat, which makes the $30 business seat hard to justify.

Canva's AI suite (Magic Design, Magic Write, Magic Media) for generating presentations, social posts and copy inside its design editor.

+ Generates a full deck or social campaign and then lets you edit every element in the familiar Canva editor.
− AI output leans on Canva's template look, and the most useful Magic features need a Pro subscription.
