Which one is for you
Pick Gamma if
- Fits if you have notes or an old file and want a first-draft deck out of them
- Works for asking "make slide 4 shorter" rather than dragging boxes around
Look elsewhere if
- Tight if you're never paying, because the 400 free credits don't come back
- Skip it if you want clean exports for free, as PDF and PowerPoint files carry a Gamma badge
- Not for you if you edit on your phone outside the US and Canada, where the apps aren't offered yet
- Watch out: Plus, Pro and Ultra prices aren't on record, and Business is $40 a member a month billed annually
- Pricey if you need the API, viewer analytics, passwords or custom domains, as all start at Pro
Pick Templafy if
- Fits if your company wants every deck to follow approved templates
- Works for teams producing the same proposals again and again
Look elsewhere if
- Pricey if you are a small team, at $40 a user and 25 seats at most on Team
- Tight if you are staying free, as shared agents and the library are Team features
- Watch out: it is built around Office and AI assistants, not a slide editor of its own
- Watch out: SSO, audit logs and approvals need an Enterprise quote
- Watch out: the page does not say whether $40 is billed monthly or annually
How we grade them
| 2.8GPAGammaGood | 2.0GPATemplafyFair | |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | CNo price we can stand behind: Gamma shows Plus, Pro and Ultra only on its own pricing page, which wouldn't load for us. The one figure on record is Business at $40 a member a month billed annually, four times the $9.99 middle here. Annual billing is 28% off and Ultra is monthly only. | DTeam is $40 per user a month, four times the $10 middle of the category, and five seats come to $200 a month. The billing basis is not stated. |
| Free plan and trial | CFree with no time limit and no card, but the caps arrive fast: 400 AI credits that never refresh, 10 slides a prompt, basic image models, and a Gamma badge on PDF and PowerPoint exports. A referral earns 200 more credits. | CIndividual is free with no card, for one seat with AI deck generation and editing. Document Agents, the content library and branding wait on Team, which has a 14-day trial. |
| Features | BThe whole job, start to finish: generate from a topic, pasted text or an imported PowerPoint, Word or PDF file, an agent that plans and writes it, a present mode with speaker notes and a follow link, exports with editable tables, and publishing as a website. API keys and analytics start at Pro. | CPrompt-to-deck, templates, brand rules and Office connectors. The pages describe no stand-alone editor, and sharing agents needs Team. |
| Ease of use | A4.8 from about 1,100 App Store ratings, one of only a couple of ratings in this category that clear our bar for an A. You describe what you want, approve a plan and ask for changes in plain words. No slide-arranging. | CNo store rating is on record and it needs an account and some setup of your own work, so it sits at the ordinary grade. |
| Platforms and integrations | BWeb and phones, with no desktop app at all, which is where this stops short of an A. Connectors: ChatGPT, Claude and Slack on every plan, Zapier, Make and n8n, and a REST API from Pro up. The phone apps are early access, US and Canada only, and edit through the agent alone. | BWeb only, with Microsoft Office, Claude, ChatGPT, Copilot, Gemini and SharePoint connectors. |
| Best for | a first-draft deck from a prompt or a file | company-approved decks from AI |

Key features
Gamma
- Generate, paste or import
- Three ways to start: generate a draft from a topic, paste existing text for Gamma to lay out, or import a PowerPoint, Word or PDF file or a URL to be restyled.
- Agent
- The agent asks about goal and audience, shows a plan to approve, then researches, writes, designs and adds images. Changes are requested in plain language in the same chat.
- Present mode
- Decks are presented full screen or in a tab, with a presenter view for private speaker notes, a spotlight mode that highlights the current block, and a follow link viewers can use to keep pace.
- Export and import
- Exports to PDF, PNG and PowerPoint, with tables kept editable in PPTX. Imports accept PowerPoint and Word files up to 200 MB and PDFs up to 100 MB.
- Sites and custom domains
- A gamma can be published as a website. Pro can publish up to 10 multi-page sites to custom domains, and Ultra and Business up to 100.
- API and connectors
- A REST API, generally available since November 2025, creates gammas from text or templates on Pro and higher plans. ChatGPT, Claude and Slack connectors work on every plan.
Templafy
- Prompt-to-presentation
- AI builds a PowerPoint deck from a prompt and can use uploaded files as context; every plan includes it.

More comparisons
How this page was made
- The verdict at the top follows a fixed rule. When both tools are in the same category and either is in our top three for it, the verdict follows that ranking: the higher-placed tool is our pick. The top three weigh who each tool suits as well as its grades, so a pick can go against the GPA. Otherwise the page does not pick one and says which grades higher: the higher GPA first; on a tie, the one with a free plan, then the one that starts cheaper in dollars a month, counted the same way for both; if they are still level, what the choice depends on.
- The grades are our own, from each tool’s review or report card. The GPA is their average.
- Prices, plans and platforms come from each tool’s listing. The table above says where each price was read and when.
- The differences and the answers to the questions are worked out from those listings.
