Experience & key features

What Gamma is

Gamma is an AI tool for building presentations, documents, websites and social visuals, made by Gamma Tech in San Francisco. SiliconANGLE says it launched in 2020 as an alternative to PowerPoint and had about 70 million users by November 2025. The Google Play listing says over 100 million. The mobile app has been on the App Store since June 2026.

How it works

The homepage describes starting with a chat with an AI agent, outlining first and then building slides. You edit by chat, drag-and-drop or a freeform design mode. Gamma imports PowerPoint and PDF, pulls content from 25+ tools such as Slack, Notion and Dropbox, and exports to PowerPoint and PDF. An API lets you embed it in other products.

Pricing and credits

Every AI action spends credits. The Free plan gives 400 credits once at signup. The pricing page as shown in the US lists Plus at $9, Pro at $18 and Ultra at $90 per seat per month on annual billing ($108, $216 and $1,080 a year); annual billing saves up to 28% over monthly. The plans carry 1,500, 4,000 and 20,000 credits per month. Refunds are available only in the first 3 days and only under a credit-use threshold.

More analysis

What users say

Store ratings are high: 4.8/5 on the App Store and 4.7/5 on Google Play. Trustpilot shows 1.6/5 from 129 reviews, 75% at 1 star, mainly about auto-renewal, hard cancellation, refunds, slow support and the AI ignoring instructions. The Trustpilot profile is unclaimed and Gamma does not invite reviews there, so the sample may not be representative.

Versus alternatives

Gamma fits when you want a fast AI draft. If you need detailed layout control or offline work, PowerPoint or Canva may fit better; if you want an agent that also handles spreadsheets and research alongside slides, Genspark is worth a look. Weigh these against your own needs and budget.

Privacy

The privacy policy (effective 10 Apr 2025) lets Gamma use personal information to train AI models. The help center (article dated 25 Sep 2026) says that on Free, Plus, Pro and Ultra, data may be used for training by default but you can opt out any time under Settings > Data Controls; for Business, Enterprise and Teams, data is always excluded from training.
