Gamma vs PitchWhich is better in 2026?
Gamma and Pitch are both presentation tools, but they're built around different jobs. Gamma is AI-native, describe a topic and get a deck. Pitch is collaboration-native, a shared workspace where teams build and track decks together.
Gamma
Generate presentations, documents and websites from a prompt.
Pitch
A collaborative presentation workspace built for teams and sales.
Written by the Slaide team. We make a competing tool, so we say plainly where each one wins.
The short answer
Choose Gamma if you're one person who wants AI to turn a prompt into a polished deck quickly and edit it by chatting. Choose Pitch if your team co-edits decks together and relies on tracked links, viewer analytics and sales rooms. If you'd rather describe your idea and get a finished, from-scratch document, decks, CVs, reports and spreadsheets in one tool, Slaide is a third option worth a look.

Strengths and limitations
Gamma
Where it wins
- Very fast at turning a prompt or pasted text into a designed deck
- Three output types from one tool, slides, documents and websites
- Conversational “agent” editing to restyle and adjust
- Polished default themes and a responsive, web-native format
- Real-time collaborative editing, with team controls on the Team and Business plans
Where it falls short
- PPTX export is supported, but Gamma documents that fonts, gradients and the Present Mode layout can differ after export
- Free credits are a one-time pool, not a monthly refresh, and exports keep a watermark
- Cloud-only, no offline or desktop mode
- A recognisable “house style”, with limited fine-grained layout control
Pitch
Where it wins
- Real-time team collaboration, several people editing one deck at once
- Strong analytics: tracked links, engagement data and client-facing “Pitch Rooms”
- Custom fonts, brand library and high visual polish
- CRM integration (HubSpot) for sales workflows
Where it falls short
- AI features arrived late and are still maturing versus AI-native tools
- AI credits are capped (just 100 one-time on Free)
- Import is essentially PPTX-only, other tools must export first
- Heavily oriented around sales and deal workflows
How they really differ
If you're one person who wants a finished deck quickly, that's Gamma's home turf. If you're a team that co-edits and sends decks to clients, that's where Pitch was designed to live.
Gamma's strength is speed from a prompt. Its conversational editing and polished themes get you to a presentable deck fast, and it can also produce documents and simple web pages. The trade-offs: free AI credits are a one-time pool, free exports carry a watermark, and some fonts, gradients and layouts can change after PowerPoint export.
Pitch's strength is the team. Real-time co-editing, shared brand and font libraries, tracked links, viewer analytics and 'Pitch Rooms' are genuinely useful for sales and marketing, and the free plan supports up to five members. Its weaknesses are the mirror image of Gamma's: AI arrived later and is still maturing, included AI credits are limited, and import is essentially PowerPoint-only. Paid plans can buy extra credits at the current per-credit rate.
A third option
Worth a look: Slaide
Gamma decks look like Gamma decks. Pitch decks look like Pitch decks. Yours should look like yours. Both tools are built around presentations with a recognisable template style. Slaide doesn't fill a template library: describe what you need and the document is designed from scratch for that specific request. Most AI tools hand you a draft. Slaide hands you a finished document. The tool that made your pitch deck is the same one that makes your CV, your board report, your one-pager. The document range goes beyond decks: board reports, consulting deliverables, CVs, one-pagers, research papers, live spreadsheets.
Slaide Free includes one document with 3 generated pages, a visible plan for up to 12 pages and watermarked exports, no card. Plus starts at €7.99/month; paid plans remove the watermark. Optional usage billing settles only completed-run usage beyond the balance, up to a user-set monthly limit, without adding credits. Because Slaide is built for one person creating fast, it is not a replacement for Pitch's real-time co-editing and deal rooms; if those are central to your workflow, Pitch is the right tool for that part.
What's different
Documents, not just decks
- Designed from scratch for your brief, so it doesn't carry a shared template look
- Real PowerPoint, Word and Excel files: text and tables stay editable
- Builds from your own PDFs, decks, spreadsheets and notes
- Free to start: 1 document, no credit card. Plans from €7.99/month
Honest limit: Built for one person creating fast, no real-time, multi-person co-editing.

Which has better AI, Gamma or Pitch?
Gamma. It's AI-native, so prompt-to-deck and conversational editing are core. Pitch added generative AI later and it's still maturing, with capped AI credits, its strength is collaboration, not AI.
Does Pitch have a free plan?
Yes. Pitch is free for up to five members, with a 100-credit one-time AI pool and Pitch branding on exports. Gamma also has a free plan, with one-time AI credits and a 'Made with Gamma' watermark on free exports.
Is there an alternative to both?
Slaide doesn't fill a template library: each new document is designed from scratch for your specific request. Unlike Gamma (theme-based) and Pitch (template libraries), Slaide's output doesn't carry a tool's visual fingerprint. Covers pitch decks, board reports, CVs, one-pagers and live spreadsheets. Free includes one document with 3 generated pages and a visible plan for up to 12 pages; Plus starts at €7.99/month. Built for solo creation, not real-time team co-editing.
