The best alternatives to Gamma
Gamma might not be the right fit: the price, a missing feature or a payment model you don't like. These are the closest alternatives in our catalog, ordered by rating, with the full review of each one.
Why look for a Gamma alternative
It remains the fastest way to go from an idea to a deck, and in 2026 it added a natural-language editing agent and a public API to plug into other workflows. The Spanish help centre is no longer completely empty, though with only 5 articles against more than 100 in English it remains a token addition. The refund policy, tightened on December 1, 2025 to just three days, sits alongside a very low Trustpilot rating (between 1.7 and 2 out of 5) over support that takes weeks to answer, while Product Hunt still sits at 4.5. PowerPoint export remains complaint number one.
What its own users repeat in the August 5, 2026 sweep:
- PowerPoint export is the most cited failure: overlapping text, substituted fonts and blocks that come out as images instead of editable text (strong theme)
- The free plan's 400 credits are one-off and do not refresh, so the trial runs out before you can decide (strong theme)
- Refunds are limited to three days from subscribing, only by writing to support, with no exception beyond what applicable law requires (strong theme)
- The official Spanish help centre has gone from empty to just 5 articles across two categories, against more than 100 in English, so the real documentation is still almost entirely in English (strong theme)
- No live chat, only a form and email, and 2026 Trustpilot reviews describe weeks with no human reply, which explains a rating between 1.7 and 2 out of 5 there, far below the 4.5 on Product Hunt (strong theme)
- Billing is per active member on every paid plan, so the price multiplies as soon as somebody else joins the workspace (present theme)

What the internet says about each alternative
Plus AI 4.1/5 · Free trial · from $10
No change this week: the Basic plan is still $10 per user a month billed annually ($15 monthly), with a seven-day trial and 1,000 credits, and the pricing page itself confirms that plan carries 1,500 credits a month against up to 170 per complex slide, so the real ceiling sits around nine or ten of the harder slides. The two stores where the add-in lives barely moved: 4.62 out of 5 from 900 ratings on the Google Marketplace (897 last week) and 4.85 out of 5 from 130 reviews on AppSource, unchanged from a week ago. The same warning as always still stands for already-designed corporate decks: the tool sits well inside Slides and PowerPoint, but editing a file with strict brand guidelines or complex charts needs testing on a real deck before trusting the output.
Where it wins: It lives inside Google Slides and PowerPoint, so the team changes no tool and fights no exports Where it slips: No permanent free plan and per-user billing, which gets expensive for occasional deck work
Decktopus 3.7/5 · Free + from $9.99
What the network repeats is the same as two weeks ago: templates and automatic layout that produce a decent deck with no design skills, and 4.6 out of 5 across 67 Capterra reviews holds steady. The entry price is still $9.99 a month paying the year up front, $119.88, confirmed today on the official pricing page with no change from the previous sweep. The PowerPoint export still comes out as an image with no editable text. What is new is that the complaint about the cancel-subscription button, until now an isolated and undated voice on Software Advice, now also shows up on Trustpilot: the button leads to a feedback form instead of canceling and some users see later charges they did not expect, with Decktopus publicly replying that cancellation is also possible via chat or email. Neither source carries an exact date, so it enters as a new theme but does not move any axis this week.
Where it wins: Short learning curve: templates and automatic layout deliver a presentable deck with no design skills Where it slips: The PowerPoint export delivers every slide as an image, so the downloaded file cannot be edited, and some users have been flagging it since the first year
