Part 01 · Overview
Welcome
What it is, who it suits, its grades and the ten things to know first
2.2
GPA, above 37 of the 89 other presentation tools we grade
2Slides turns pasted text into slide decks using a library of templates, and can also generate image-style slides with a second engine it calls Nano Banana. Work is paid for in credits, either through a monthly Pro subscription or one-time credit packs. It also exposes an API, an MCP server and agent skills for automating slide creation.
To get you started, here are 9 things to know about 2Slides, taken from its own pages and our grades.
- 1
Best for AI slides paid by credit, with an API
2slides generates slides from credits, with an API and an MCP server for tools like Claude Code.
- 2
Paid plans start at $11 a month
As its pricing page puts it: $11 per month, billed annually (credit packs from $5).
- 3
You can try it first
500 free credits for new users, enough for 50 fast PPT slide pages
- 4
It runs on Web
Web.
- 5
Fast PPT slides
Applies a template to pasted text and finishes in seconds; costs 10 credits per page.
- 6
Nano Banana slides
A slower engine for creative layouts, at 100 credits per page for 1K or 2K and 200 for 4K.
- 7
API, MCP and agent skills
Slide generation can be automated through an API, an MCP server, or agent skills in tools such as Claude Code and Cursor.
- 8
A 2.2 GPA, above 37 of 89
That is against the other presentation tools we grade, on value, the free plan, features, ease of use and platforms.
- 9
Keep it
To replace 2Slides you would be making a voice model, which you can rent by the minute but not make. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.

The report card
Best for AI slides paid by credit, with an API
2slides generates slides from credits, with an API and an MCP server for tools like Claude Code. New users get 500 credits, subscription credits reset monthly, and narration costs 210 credits a page.
| Subject | Grade | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | C | Pro is $11 a month billed annually, near the $10 middle. Credit packs start at $5 and never expire. |
| Free plan and trial | C | New users get 500 credits, about 50 fast slide pages. No card is stated, but it is a one-off grant. |
| Features | C | Slides from credits, with API and MCP access, and a custom template upload with a pack. Narration eats credits fast. |
| Ease of use | C | No store rating is on record. The credit system takes learning. |
| Platforms and integrations | B | Web with an API and MCP, and links to Claude Code, Cursor and Codex. No desktop or phone apps. |
An A is worth 4 points, a B 3, a C 2, a D 1 and an F nothing. The GPA is the average of the five.
Who 2Slides is for
- Fits if you want to generate slides from code or an agent
- Works for people who prefer buying credits to subscribing
Who it is not for
- Watch out: subscription credits reset monthly and do not roll over
- Watch out: narration costs 210 credits a page, so 10,000 credits go quickly
- Watch out: a crossed-out $25 sits beside $11 under a banner with no end date
- Skip it if you need a monthly-billed price, as it was not readable
Good to know
Good for
- Developers automating deck creation through an API or MCP
- Occasional users who prefer credits that never expire to a subscription
- People who already have the text and want it laid out quickly
Worth knowing
- Subscription credits reset each month and do not roll over; pack credits do not expire.
- The page shows a crossed-out $25 beside $11 under a limited-time banner with no end date.
- The monthly-billed Pro price was not shown in readable text.
- Narration costs 210 credits per page, so the 10,000-credit plan covers far fewer narrated pages.

Keep it, or make your own?
Whether this is something you could build for yourself with an AI app builder, and what you would give up.
Keep it
To replace 2Slides you would be making a voice model, which you can rent by the minute but not make. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.
It costs $132 a year.
What you could make
- Templates: an app builder makes this well.
What you could not
- A voice model, which you can rent by the minute but not make.
- A slide editor.
- It plugs into other products, Claude Code, Cursor and Codex among them, and has an API.
- AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself.
What this rests on. 2Slides’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
