Which plan to pickPro on the yearly plan is the only sensible individual option, because month to month costs three times as much. Go to Team only if several people build decks and you want the brand locked, since $40 a seat adds up fast.If you already pay for Claude, you have it. Try it on Free first, and move to Pro once you're making more than the odd document, because decks use up a Free allowance fast. Team makes sense when colleagues need to open and comment on the same documents.Standard is the minimum for anyone using it for work, because the free plan makes your presentations public. Go to Plus only if you present offline or want unlimited AI. Premium and Teams are hard to justify against Pitch or Gamma unless you need Prezi's analytics specifically.
