That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one. That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 53 of the 89 other presentation tools grade higher. It costs $118.80 a year. - You could make: Templates: an app builder makes this well. - You could not: A video editor. - You could not: A slide editor. - You could not: A real app for macOS and Windows. Something home-made would be a web page. A judgement by ToolGPA from this listing, by rules that are the same for every tool.
