| Which plan to pick | Free is enough to see if it fits how you work. If you'll put visuals in client decks, Plus removes the branding and adds PowerPoint export for $9 a month on yearly billing. Pro is for people who need custom fonts or lots of credits. | Make one real deck on Starter. If it beats your current process, Pro covers most people. Gold only makes sense for teams that need custom templates and a shared knowledge base. Compare it with Gamma before paying for a year. |
