What our research says

Gamma

The tool that genuinely displaced PowerPoint for a lot of people, and it is profitable enough not to need your money — but credits, not seats, decide how much a plan is actually worth.

Pros

  • Layout and image choice happen without picking a template first
  • One document publishes as a deck, a doc or a live web page
  • Plus at $8/user/month already removes the Gamma badge
  • Profitable at over $100M ARR, so the vendor is not a runway risk

Cons

  • Credit accounting is opaque — a premium image can cost up to 125 credits
  • API keys are locked to Pro and above
  • The free plan's 400 signup credits do not go far on image-rich decks
  • Export fidelity to PowerPoint degrades on complex layouts

WorkPPT

WorkPPT is a fast way to get a rough deck out of a block of text or an existing document, with enough template variety to avoid a default look. It will not replace careful manual design work, and the lifetime plan only pays off if you expect to keep using it for years.

Pros

  • Generates a full deck from plain text or an uploaded document in one pass
  • No PowerPoint or Google account required to draft a deck
  • Bundles PDF and document-summary tools alongside the generator

Cons

  • Saving and exporting requires creating an account
  • Support channel is not prominent on the marketing pages
  • Template output still needs manual cleanup for a polished result
