Gamma

Prompt-to-presentation decks that look designed, not templated

8.8/10

Gamma turns a prompt or a document into a deck you can edit in place, then publish as a website or export to PowerPoint. The default layouts look finished rather than stock, and the share-as-a-link path is genuinely useful for updates and one-pagers.
