Gamma wins, 8.6 to 4.8
Gamma's cheapest paid plan is $12 a month against Beautiful AI's $45, and it includes a free plan where Beautiful AI has none. Gamma also exports straight to Google Slides and opens an API on its paid plans, neither of which Beautiful AI offers, and it publishes decks as standalone web pages. Beautiful AI does match Gamma on tracking who viewed a shared deck and on single sign-on, keeping its focus on the deck itself rather than a wider platform.
Pick Beautiful AI if you want a straightforward deck builder without needing the extra platform features.
Pick Gamma if you want a free plan to try first, plus an API and Google Slides export.
