| Which plan to pick | If you already pay for Claude Pro, you have it. If not, try Design on the Free plan and move to Pro when the daily limits get in the way, which happens quickly once you're iterating on a deck. Team makes sense when several people need the same brand setup. | Use the free credits to make two or three decks and judge the output. If you'll keep using it, Plus is the sensible step because it removes the badge and refreshes credits monthly. Only move to Pro if you want the API, custom domains or viewer analytics. | 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. |
