Chronicle vs Pitch

Two fact sheets from our own research, side by side — pricing, platforms, API access and status re-checked by us rather than quoted from the vendors. Chronicle publishes a starting price ($15); Pitch does not. Both have a free tier. Only Chronicle ships a public API.

What our research says

Chronicle

The editing model is what separates this from the pile of deck generators: instead of regenerating a slide you tell it what to change and it changes it, so a generated deck is a starting point rather than a throwaway. Brand themes, PowerPoint export and an API make it usable inside a company rather than only for a one-off pitch. The token allowance per seat is the real meter, and PowerPoint export is gated behind the $30 tier.

Pros

  • Natural-language editing of existing slides, not just first-pass generation
  • Exports to PowerPoint and PDF and publishes to the web
  • Custom brand themes and shared workspaces on paid tiers
  • Free tier of 10 decks is enough to judge output quality
  • Documented API for programmatic deck creation

Cons

  • Priced per seat with a separate monthly token cap that limits generation
  • PowerPoint export and the Muse agent require the $30 Plus tier
  • The company publishes no headquarters or registered address

Pitch

One of the more polished collaborative deck tools, with brand governance and link analytics that sales and agency teams actually use. AI is an assistant bolted to a credit meter rather than the core product, and there is still no public API — only a register-your-interest page.

Pros

  • Strong collaboration, template and brand-kit system
  • Share-link analytics show per-slide engagement
  • Native apps on macOS, Windows, iOS and Android in addition to web
  • Free plan allows unlimited presentations

Cons

  • AI credits cap out per plan, and the free plan's 100 credits never renew
  • Euro-first pricing display makes USD budgeting a currency-rate guess
  • API remains 'coming soon'
